"I had a problem with my main service electrical conduit that detached from the house. Igor from Kolomna services quickly responded to my quote request. Igor estimate was reasonable. He arrived earlier than expected and completed the task. Igor was professional and explained everything he was doing. I would highly recommend Igor for your electrical problems."

"Hires them to install outdoor lights and they cut the electrical lines for my septic tank. As I write this review, I have sewage flooding my basement and Dan Askelson says no one can come repair their error for two weeks. Terrible installation and even worse customer service."

"An outstanding contractor. APS did a great job with my project. They handled all the permits and hoop-jumping nonsense with the village, began the project on time as promised and delivered a great backyard oasis and front yard transformation. They did everything from patio, to landscaping to lighting and of course, the beautiful pool, which they also provided after installation assistance with the care and upkeep. Great bunch to work with and I highly recommend them"

"Responded immediately to my call. Arrived promptly on the same day. Performed a sample act of their service on my brickwork do that I could see the expected results and decide for myself. Let me think about it overnight. My bricks are badly stained due to vine growth so it would be impossible to have them perfect. But the result was better than I expected them. It was great to see a free sample of their work before I decided. I would highly recommend Andrew and his crew."

"From the first visit we felt Tony would do a great job for us. We had an unlevel, cracked, ugly asphalt driveway and a one-step stoop that was so high, it was scary to step down from. The melted snow ran from the driveway into our garage...that is how much higher our old blacktop driveway was. Tony envisioned a stoop with two steps for safety and esthetics and proposed the idea to us. Obviously, we loved it. Tony was there answering every question, helping us choose materials and always replied within 24 hours, which we found that completely acceptable. So we signed up! Then the work started and we were equally impressed with John who did all the supervision of their concrete team. We loved to see John working along side the crew, riding the machinery and the pleasant way he treated their workers. Recommendations, whether they be from a neighbor or from a satisfied customer, are important and I would never leave a positive review if I didn't have a positive experience. Ours was a 5!"

FAQs for outdoor lighting plan and installation projects in Wheeling, 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.
