Ask Us Anything · (213) 752-393501How is your pricing?+
Competitive and transparent. Lake in the Hills homeowners get an itemized written quote on the spot at the free in-home design — fixtures, transformers, wiring, and labor all broken out, with no hidden fees.
02What's the difference between low-voltage and line-voltage?+
Low-voltage (12V) is what we install for landscape and accent lighting in Lake in the Hills — safer, more flexible, and easier to expand. Line-voltage (120V) is for permanent architectural work and we handle that with proper permits in IL.
03Will trenching tear up my lawn?+
Minimally. We use a vibratory plow on most Lake in the Hills lawns, which slits the turf and pulls cable through without sod removal. Re-sod is included on the few runs where we have to dig.
04Are permits required?+
Low-voltage landscape lighting in IL generally does not require a permit. Line-voltage exterior circuits and any new sub-panel work do — we pull those when needed and coordinate with the inspector.
