When undertaking a serious project that may be beyond your scope, it’s always a good idea to do your homework in regards to a potential landscape lighting service. When interviewing an Oakville outdoor lighting service, you should ask lots of questions – and receive answers you’re comfortable with – before deciding to hire anyone to do the job. In addition, you should do background checks on potential companies. Do not proceed until due diligence is completed. Here are some questions that you should be asking.

Landscape Lighting Service Accreditations

You don’t want to trust just anyone with your home. Before you invite a landscape lighting service to work on your home, verify that they:

Have a license/registration/insurance: are the companies that you’re looking at registered with Service Ontario? Do they have the proper permits to operate? Do they carry liability insurance?

BBB: Are the companies on your list accredited by the Better Business Bureau? What are their ratings?

If a company cannot answer these questions satisfactorily, do not let them anywhere near your outdoor lighting installation! Hire an unaccredited business and you could be setting yourself up for disaster.

What Kind of Experience Does Nite Time Decor Oakville Have?

In order to get a good idea of what sort of work a landscape lighting service has done, ask some questions like the following:

How much lighting experience do you have? Ideally the company in question should have enough experience to show that they offer quality lighting installations. Nite Time Décor’s site has a plethora of resources related to landscape lighting to prove that we know what we’re doing.
How many lighting installations has the company done? Anyone can sell lights, but not just any company can install these lights effectively. The number of installations a company has successfully completed will be a good indicator of their level of expertise and ability.
Can the company provide references? If your prospective company cannot provide solid customer testimonials or site references, you should be concerned.
Ask Your Landscape Lighting Service About Warranties and Service Plans

Every company will provide you with information in order to secure a sale. The real test is finding out about their service following the installation. Will they leave you hanging in the event of a system malfunction or untimely repair?

Will they provide a preview? Sometimes, the homeowner’s taste and budget are at odds with the designer’s vision. A reputable landscape lighting company will work with you to design a layout that suites you. Check out our gallery to see the kinds of installations Nite Time Décor has to offer.
How about warranties? Warranties are only as good as the company that backs them up. All of Nite Time Décor’s products are covered by warranty.
What do their service and maintenance plans look like? Does the company provide service after the sale? Nite Time Décor follows up with your property six months after the installation. We are committed to the lifetime maintenance of your Oakville outdoor lighting.
Don’t let just anyone come into your yard and throw up a bunch of lights. Landscape lighting is an art and should only be trusted to companies who prove themselves worthy of the task.
