"Be aware of Atlantic Irrigation at (REMOVED ADDRESS), and their technicians regarding sexual harassment. Protect your family from overly-friendly technicians. We had an incident where one of their technicians was ?fresh? and ?hitting? on my wife, verbally, and also included unwanted touching her twice! This is an outrage and not an innocent act. You don?t "hit on" women or touch them in any way! No woman should be treated in this manner, married or unmarried. There should be no fear placed in any woman regarding men working on their property. We have filed a complaint with the Prince George?s County police, placed a restraining peace order against this person, named (NAME REMOVED), and also filed a complaint with the company. The company president, (NAME REMOVED), apologizes verbally and claims that they have not had such an incident. She said if this had happened to her, she would have called 911. There has been no follow-up to remedy this situation."

FAQs for outdoor lighting plan and installation projects in Silver Spring, MD

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.
