"He was a great guy to get to know I had never met a guy before, But apparently he's 20 plus a year veteran electrical veteran. He was able to find a problrm right away and get me back up and running in those two bathroom locations with a new look on ourselves since we could see ourselves with additional light now. Very pleased with the work that he did"

"I was very impressed with the service. I am a photography student so I work with a lot of heavy weight programs and very large files. I also do a ton of research along with my school work. After one year of using my brand new laptop for school, I had NO space left on my computer, it was crashing constantly, files were corrupting, and of course, everything was taking forever to load. I called HelloTech for help. They were very understanding of my need for a very complete and fast repair. They were very prompt, diagnosed the issues with my computer, then gave me options on how it could be repaired and modified to accommodate my needs, along with price quotes for each option. Very professional, we worked out a plan that fixed every issue that I had. I am more than happy with my "new" laptop and I would most definitely hire them again!"

"Very knowledgeable and personable. Dedicated to finding the electrical problem and making sure the problem was fixed right the first time. Took a no nonsense approach and tried to keep the cost to a minimum. I feel very confident the job was well done. I would highly recommend him. And would most certainly consider using this service for other projects in the future. Thanks, Rick Milcarek"

"A handyman/ contractor named Mike performed the work w/in my home. The Pros, included him being punctual, time- efficient and performing the work described w/o incident/ difficulty. I am pleased w/ the work. I was extremely dissatisfied w/ the price of the work however. Upon the initial assessment a price that I sincerely felt was inflated was given. I decided to address the immediate concerns w/in my home and given Covid did not want repeated people entering to gather a second estimate, I went w Mike. I paid 1/2 of the initial price as was policy at the start of him beginning to work w/in my home via Zelle. This was fine. He was unable to finish the work in one day, which was also fine and I asked him about add'l smaller projects w/in my home that he had the option to accept/ decline. He accepted. One was to perform a job similar in size/ labor as a previous job we had discussed that was no longer needed. I suggested the initial price either be lowered or the jobs swapped as an even exchange. A second job was placing a recessed lighbulb where one had previously burned out. He agreed. Upon of completion of the work the remaining balance increased by a little over $200. I was stunned. He did not swap out the initial job as was implied since he NEVER stated otherwise and charged me $100 to place new handles on my kitchen cabinets and charged me $50 to insert the lightbulb. Given that he is a stranger and I am not looking for fights I paid him in full and asked him to leave my home. I felt taken advantage of, ****** and would never refer such a greedy individual to anyone- which is a shame b/c while advancing himself upwards of $200 he ultimately lost thousands in certain call- backs I would have made and referrals I would have gladly given."

"The Greenerside was the 4th lanscape company I got a cost from to put in a new lawn, plant nursery stock and spread mulch. I appreciated the extra effort on Jennifer's part to share her landscaping ideas with color photos of how my yard and home could look. They were extremely flexible in the materials I was able supply and the service they would provide. They were also able to accomodate my tight time frame. Their work was very professional and personable. I am pleased in all respects, and will call on them again in the future."

FAQs for outdoor lighting plan and installation projects in Manteno, IL

Permit requirements for outdoor lighting vary depending on your location and project scope. Simple fixture replacements don't require permits, but projects involving new electrical circuits, extensive trenching, or significant system expansions often do. Local building departments establish these requirements, and many professional electricians handle permit applications as part of their service package.

The timeline for outdoor lighting installation varies based on project complexity. Basic systems might require only one to two days for complete installation, while extensive lighting networks with numerous fixtures and complex wiring needs could extend to a week or longer. Weather conditions, property accessibility, and soil characteristics can all influence how quickly professionals can complete your installation.

Outdoor lighting offers both practical and aesthetic benefits that many homeowners find valuable. Beyond enhancing nighttime visibility and security, well-designed lighting can highlight architectural features and extend outdoor living hours. While installation represents a significant investment, quality lighting may potentially increase property appeal and could contribute to overall home value.

Some outdoor lighting projects are suitable for homeowner installation, particularly simple solar fixtures or low-voltage systems that plug into existing outlets. However, projects requiring new electrical connections, permanent wiring, or integration with home electrical systems demand professional expertise. Electrical work carries inherent safety risks, and improper installation could create fire hazards or code violations.

The operating cost for outdoor lighting depends primarily on your fixture types, bulb selection, and usage patterns. Energy-efficient LED fixtures consume significantly less electricity than traditional incandescent or halogen alternatives. Controlling your lighting with timers, photocells, or motion sensors can further reduce energy usage by ensuring lights operate only when needed or beneficial.
