Nice blog about Lite Visions Landscape Lighting on The Raleigh Fairgrounds Fall Homeshow page

 

EXHIBITOR SPOTLIGHT: LIGHT VISIONS LANDSCAPE LIGHTING

Aug 22, 2018

We’re excited to have Light Visions Landscape Lighting joint us at the Fairgrounds Southern Ideal Home Show. Lite Visions is not a outdoor lighting franchise, but a locally owned outdoor lighting design and installation company. They pride themselves on delivering the best LED Outdoor Fixture, workmanship and customer service to our clients in Raleigh and the surrounding areas. They do custom outdoor lighting to both residential and commercial properties.

Before you see the Light Visions team at booth #2129 get a sneak peek at what they’ll be bringing to the show by reading our brief interview below.

Describe your products and services.
Outdoor Landscape and Architectural Lighting Design and Installation done right by someone who worked in the concert and live music industry for over 30 years as a lighting technician and lighting designer.

What are your best home or garden tips for this season?
As a lighting designer, I work with homeowners in and around the Raleigh NC area to determine how you enjoy your outdoor space, particular features or a structure that you would like to highlight with outdoor lighting. What you like most about your homes architecture, specific trees or plant you like. A walkway or path you would enjoy or use more if it was illuminated. A favorite pond or water feature. Features you love most in your outdoor kitchen or along your hardscaping that would look great with outdoor lighting.

What are your featured items this season?
I am installing a new series of lighting this season designed by an architectural company. The lights are groundbreaking in the fact that not only can you adjust the beam spread and angle, but you can also adjust the wattage output and color temperature of the lights to the right temperature no matter what type of surface you are lighting. These fixtures give off a very soft subtle lighting effect. Too many outdoor lighting companies tend to over light a home. As always I am offering a discount to anyone who signs up for a lighting quote at my booth during the show. My company is different I am different in the fact that I am the lighting designer and installer.

What are your home or garden pet peeves?
People who only light items one sided and have no design knowledge or thoughts of the customer seeing this flat lighting effect when they pull up to their home, but not being able to see it from the home itself. Example a beautiful Crepe Myrtle or Riverbirch tree light from the front with only one light. A tree should always be lit up 3 dimensional to bring out it’s structure and beauty.

What is the strangest client request you’ve ever received?
I get people who don’t understand what I do and sometimes I will get requests to install floodlights over a garage.

What is your favorite part about the home show?
I love meeting people and talking to new potential customers, it seems alot of people are building outdoor kitchens. I try to give alot of advice to people remodeling or building as I want to make sure they are prepared as they deal with the builders, electricians stone contractors etc. to make adding their outdoor lighting as easy as possible for them. I am working right now on a project at Hyco lake near Roxboro on a amazing outdoor kitchen for a customer I met at the last home show.

Any additional company info you’d like to include?
I feel I bring something different to outdoor lighting as I come from a concert lighting background, from working with local bands such as the Embers right out of school to local recording acts Glassmoon and Nantucket to working huge arena concerts such as Kool and The Gang, Joan Jett, Alan Jackson, Tim Mcgraw, Dan Fogelburg, 3 Doors Down, Whitney Houston to the Christmas sensation Trans Siberian Orchestra. I still do a few concerts now and then and also work at the Memorial Auditorium venues when I can.

I do maintenance on older existing systems as well as LED retrofits. I am a member of the Association of Outdoor Lighting Professionals a small group of professionals who are some of the best in the business.

The Fairgrounds Southern Ideal Home Show will be taking over the North Carolina State Fairgrounds September 21-23, 2018. With hundred of home improvement experts to speak with, like the team at Light Visions Landscape Lighting, this is a must attend event. What are you waiting for? Get your tickets now!

LED Retrofit into older outdoor landscape lighting systems Raleigh

LED RETROFIT INTO OLDER LANDSCAPE LIGHTING SYSTEMS

Sometimes I will get a phone call from a customer in the Raleigh asking if it is possible to come and look at their 15 year old landscape lighting system in and around the Raleigh area and possibly retrofit it to the new LED bulbs. I am always glad to come look at an older existing system as long as it is a professionally installed system with professional landscape lighting fixtures and not some of the big box store lighting that someone installed themselves. If the light fixtures are high grade materials and there is an existing professional transformer in place and the wiring and connectors are still in good shape, it is possible to upgrade an older landscape lighting system to the new energy saving and green friendly LED bulbs. There are many options available ,from just retrofitting the existing fixtures with drop in LED lamps,to redoing the system’s connections,updating wiring and installing the new long lasting LED chip on board landscape lighting fixtures. Some of these nice fixtures even have a variable wattage and focus on the fixture.

Give me a call today to look at your old outdoor lighting system in the Raleigh NC area.

Decided to go to NC home show at State Fair Grounds and met Joe. He is very professional and extremely creative. He setup a demo system for one night and it looked stunning. Few of my neighbors were impressed as well. So we decided to get the lights installed. He made our home look great in the evening and we love it.

Annual Lighting Service

When I started Lite Visions landscape lighting, I decided to take myself over the top by giving a 1 year FREE Annual maintenance agreement at the customer’s request along with my 1 year installation warranty along with the Manufacturer’s warranty. I do this simply to show my gratitude for my customers and I want to help keep their lighting system looking 100% always.

 

Coming from my music and touring  lighting background. I feel confident in my skills as a lighting technician and lighting designer, as well as the landscape lighting fixtures and installation methods I choose.  I back our systems with the best warranty and FREE Annual  1 year service agreement in the Raleigh area! It’s not about the sale, it’s about providing a stunning lighting design for our clients for years to come.

I want you to tell your friends & neighbors about us!

Most of my landscape lighting business is word of mouth referrals from friends and neighbors who saw your night time demo or lighting system.

From cleaning your fixtures, adjusting them due to growth or simply cutting a few small branches that are in front of a light fixture, I always want your lighting to look 100%

 

landscape lighting demonstration

 

 I am a true lighting designer who likes to do a landscape lighting demonstration. I love to share a clients excitement after I call or knock on the door and say, cmon out and see what your lights are going to look like.

Most of my jobs are from word of mouth referrals or neighbors who saw my lighting at their friends home. I am a lighting designer who is very passionate about my designs and installs low voltage landscape lighting. I am not in any way a salesperson. Let me share my vision with you and illuminate your landscape with light. I feel the difference between ordinary and extraordinary is just that little extra.

I am a very visual person, when I drive down Capital Blvd by Triangle Town Mall or Glenwood Ave in Raleigh near the car lots at night all I can think of the horrible light pollution spilling all across the highway. When I go into a badly lit restaurant to eat and complain to the owners, sometimes  I will eat there later and notice they changed the lighting upon my suggestion.
Last year at Christmas when Lowes was putting their Christmas tree display up, I was walking thru the area and suggested to get the manager to come out and take out the store lights over the tree display area. Guess what, they did and it looked amazing. I believe I see things other people might not notice.
I was working on a job at a home recently and was showing someone how we could be dark sky friendly by simply installing a light filter or louver to help control light spill.
Turns out she was a huge environmentalist and loved it so much she referred me to a neighbor. I probably sometimes talk about lighting too much with a potential customer, but I really believe they need to see what my vision is for their property if that means showing why I use two lights to properly crosslight a tree instead of only one light.
