"Outstanding contractor with hardworking and talented staff. JM Maintenance Contruction surveyed our 30 year old lawn and garden sprinkler system, identified deficiencies, and brought it up to standard in one day. Now we have even water coverage throughout the lawn and garden areas. As to the stone and gravel work, JM Maintenance refurbished our extensive xeriscape and driveway areas with quality gravel. The color selections were excellent and the JM team worked tirelessly, wheel barrel by wheel barrel to apply the gravel evenly, smoothly, and well compacted. Our hats off to the JM Maintenance team."

"We bought a coupon on Angie's list for 8 hours of work. We had several lights to install, but one in particular we knew would be a challenge- a large heavy wooden chandelier that we had bought at a specialty shop. The first day he came out, he realized that it would be a project and he would need to figure out a plan to install it as it would require a lot of time and extra parts. True to his word, he came back the next week with a plan that ended up being cheaper and easier than he had originally thought. He took the time to get a replacement part that would match the chandelier even better than what it originally came with, and even painted it to match perfectly. Originally he had thought he would have to cut a hole in the ceiling and we would have to have the sheet rock replaced/repaint, but he came up with a different way of doing it that saved time and money....and it came out beautifully! We really feel he went above and beyond in his work, and I would highly recommend this company for any work you may need done. Excellent! Thanks again."

"Contractor keep appointment (even though there were 2 or 3 calls expressing confusion about time and day); installed the drywall and cleaned the area.   The drywall installation was not smooth and when textured looked amateurish at best.  Before I could paint I had to sand several areas and apply canned texture-not the most professional look but time was a factor.  the next time the wall is painted will require extensive prep work to make it look professional. <br /> Good things: appointment keep; work was done as explained; no extra charges. <br /> Not so good: Technician was not a drywall guy. <br />"

"Jon arrived promptly.  I had bought different switches than those that came with the fans (light plus fan speed on a single switch), but Jon kindly pointed out I didn't need them as I could re-use one of the old light switches for the light and use the packaged fan speed switches.  He also pointed out that the included light bulb was a bit dim, but that I could upgrade it as long as it met the power requirement and fit within the enclosure. <br /> The installations went smoothly and quickly.  Jon even discovered a wiring issue in one of my receptacles where there was a knick in the wire (likely when the house was built).  He fixed it up, likely preventing a potential fire hazard!  Fans are perfectly balanced and look great. <br /> I highly recommend Jon and Advanced Electrical Services. <br />"

FAQs for outdoor lighting plan and installation projects in Albuquerque, NM

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.
