"Dazzle lighting made sure that my backyard looked the best it could, and gave a professional opinion of what to do. I had ideas and they were professional with saying we could do that but it may not be the best choice for the space, and offered another opinion. I was not disappointed and was so thankful they did! They displayed some ideas and left demos so we were confident with our decision too. Never questioned what we were paying for and these guys always over delivered!"

"My husband and I are thrilled with our new backyard! From the beginning Andrew understood our needs and worked on a design that would give us more usable space for our family gatherings. Andrew is jus wonderful to work with! He is attentive to your needs and concerns and has an incredible vision for hardscape design and landscape. Once the design was done, they had to demolish existing cement and level our whole backyard to have more usable space. They installed pavers, lighting, gas lines for our fire pit and grill and landscape. It all came together even better than we ever imagined! The whole team was led by our project manager, Alvaro, who is a pleasure to work with. Every worker that was brought in was professional, punctual, and tidied up before they left for the day. Alvaro was always responsive and accommodating with the changes that we thought needed to be done along the way and still the project was completed on time and within the budget. We wish we could give more than 5 stars and cannot recommend this company enough! Hiring California Smartscape was the best decision we could have made and one we will enjoy for many years to come!!"

"My experience was outstanding!!  On time, on schedule, under budget, passed City inspection with no issues at all.  Would I recommend and hire again?  Absolutely!!
I was having a solar system installed and needed my electric panel to be upgraded.  I sent inquires to most of the Angieslist electricians and received several responses.  Most replied politely with prices ranging from $1900 to $3000.  Instead of just giving me a "standard price", Pete understood that not every job takes the same amount of work, so he asked for a photo or two of what was I had and what I wanted to be done.  We talked a little, emailed a little, and texted a little.  In the end he gave me a quote for the job, and what would and would not be included (stucco patching).  He's an electrician, not a handyman. This was common amongst all the electricians I received responses from.  
His price was by far the best by at least 25%.  Even having to get my own stucco guy, I was $500 ahead than the next closest quote.  Now, full disclosure....we had time to plan this project out.  To help me save money, I asked if I could pull the City permit. No problem.  This was not an emergency fix. SDGE was taking 3 weeks to schedule disconnects, so we picked the soonest date SDGE could do their thing and he booked it on his schedule.
Day of installation?  Nasty weather.  He could have easily blown it off.  If that had happened, my whole solar install would have slipped and not have made its end of year install deadline. Nope, rain or shine, he was going to be there.  I set up a pop up shelter and it worked out perfect. SDGE disconnected at 8:30 and Pete went to work.  By noon, the panel was in with breakers and all. Now we just needed the City inspector to sign off.  Inspector shows up, and it doesn't take 5 minutes for the approval.  Inspector compliments Pete on the install and professional touches indicating he doesn't get many that are that well done.  It doesn't get any better than that!!
Here's another thing?.,  Codes have changed since the house was built and the electrical installed.   We expected to have to re-do the "cold water bond".   As it turned out, the existing "cold water bond" was sufficient for the new panel.  What did he do?  He lowered the cost of the job.  How many others would have still charged?
SDGE showed up, hooked us back up, and between the two of us had all the breakers figured out to what they controlled.  Start to finish was less than 6 hours. 
I couldn't be happier with the job and outcome.  Pete Aardema knows what he's doing.  They're good, they're honest, they'll work with you, and they are affordable."

"Atlas did a great job in updating our old electric fixtures and adding new ones. The men who performed the work were very nice and helpful. In fact, I'm asking for them to hang a ceiling light for me. Michele"

FAQs for outdoor lighting plan and installation projects in Potrero, CA

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.
