We had Jim installed the backyard landscape lightings in 2013. He set up demo fixtures with 2 different types of light bulbs. It was in summer so that we had to wait until 9pm to test them. At 9pm, we turned on the test fixtures. It was like a magic to see the amazing lights in our backyard that made look like a super high end hotel's garden! We immediately made our decision to hire him. We chose the beautiful fixtures with LED bulb he recommended. I call him "a magician of landscape lighting"! He deserves more than 5 starts! We still enjoy the lights in our backyard every single night! Thank you, Jim!
