Bill came to the house and gave us several quotes until we defined the exact scope of work. He is very knowledgeable and can fit the job to your goals and budget. We uplit the front, including a 100 year old willow. We did the whole back with three feature areas and a suspended lantern setup over my patio. It came out great. His team was very professional. You can not go wrong with Northern Outdoor. **Comment from Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC:** > Kevin, > Thank you so much for the incredible review. We really enjoyed installing lighting on your beautiful home. We give you 5 stars for being such a great client! **★★★★★ — Andrew Lukasik, June 2019** > We would absolutely recommend Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC to anyone looking for landscape lighting professionals. Bill listens to your ideas and requests and takes you through the whole design process. His team is super friendly and very knowledgeable. Bill and his team take pride in their work, and take the time to listen and do things right. They follow up after the install and make sure you're happy with the way things turned out and make any necessary adjustments. We couldn't be happier with the job they did. **Comment from Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC:** > Andrew, > Thanks so much for the great review. We are so pleased that you enjoy your new landscape lighting system. **★★★★★ — Justin Pallis, April 2018** > Bill did a great job for me, his people were professional and incredibly responsive if i had any issue at all. I would strongly recommend him to anyone that needs his services. **Comment from Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC:** > Thank you very much Justin for the wonderful review. It was a pleasure working with you. We appreciate your business and kind words. **★★★★★ — Jon Russo, Dec. 2017** > I have worked with Bill and northern outdoor lighting both as hiring his company to work on several of my landscape projects and also for my own home. All my experiences have been extremely positive. Over the past couple years he has been the best contractor I’ve worked with so it was a no brainer to use him at my personal house as well. I highly recommend him for all your outdoor lighting needs. **★★★★★ — Joan Osganian, Dec. 2017** > I was extremely pleased with the outdoor lighting which Bill and his staff performed at my home in Florida. Since Florida is not my permanent residence I dealt with Bill only via phone and email. He was extremely professional and made suggestions to enhance the lighting on my home. **★★★★★ — John Patti, Oct. 2017** > After interviewing a few companies, it was crystal clear that Northern Outdoor Lighting would complete our project with the highest level of quality and service. Our expectations were met and exceeded. Bill Knowles is a true gentleman who arrives on time, is concise and precise in project planning and product detail, and whose crew was careful, friendly and accommodated all our wishes. We couldn't be happier with the final outcome that now beautifully accents our property. **★★★★★ — Cutting Edge Systems Corp., Aug. 2017** > With experience as a professional landscaper, Bill has a true sense and vision of how to illuminate an outdoor scene. His knowledge is a true resource for every project and his team is a pleasure to work with as we're confronted with tight schedules and fixed budgets. NOL earns my highest recommendation as a the premiere outdoor lighting expert in New England. **Comment from Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC:** > What a great compliment to receive a wonderful review from a top shelf company like Cutting Edge Systems. Thank you so much! **★★★★★ — Marisa Doherty, Aug. 2017** > I would like to acknowledge Bill Knowles of Northern Outdoor Lights for the wonderful service he has provided us. He is very professional and easy to work with. The quality of his work is excellent and the improvements made to our outdoor lighting has really highlighted and accentuated our home. We enjoy working with Bill and greatly appreciate his expertise and thoroughness. We would highly recommend Northern Outdoor Lighting! **Comment from Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC:** > Marisa, Thank you for the wonderful review. It was a pleasure working with you. **★★★★★ — Jennifer Pagan, Aug. 2017** > Northern Outdoor Lighting really listened to what we were looking for in our outdoor space. The lighting that they recommended is perfect and two years later we are still thrilled with it. The installers were so professional and made sure we understood how everything worked in the event that we wanted to change timers etc. They followed up with us a year later to see if we were still satisfied with the project. I wish all contractors interacted as professionally as this group. I cannot say enough positive things - the whole experience was easy and we love our outdoor space. **Comment from Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC:** > Jennifer, Thank you for the nice review. Its so important to us that we treat all our clients the way we would like to be treated by a service provider. I'm so happy that you are enjoying your outdoor lighting **★★★★★ — Charity Brown, Aug. 2017** > Northern Outdoor Lighting upgraded our outdated outdoor lighting and added new lighting to enhance the surrounding landscape, a New Hampshire site with mixed woodlands, fern covered fields and banks, and garden areas with many specimen trees. Bill Knowles and his highly professional crew were meticulous in laying underground wiring, selecting appropriate lighting effects and following through with every possible detail, from start to finish. The end result is magical, as if the moon were seeping through our trees. A perfect job on-time and under budget. **Comment from Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC:** > Charity, Thank you for the kind review. Your project was so nice when completed. We're so happy that you were pleased with the results. It was a challenge to install but worth all the effort. **★★★★★ — Sharon Schrott, Aug. 2017** > Bill and his team are great. We felt that he was competent and experienced in giving us good advice. The project turned out beautiful. We had done another lighting project with our landscapers previously, who charged us much more, had little advice to offer and said that they cannot drill into our retaining walls to install lights. Bill said that it was not a problem to install lights in retaining walls, did so without a problem and gave us a beautiful result. **Comment from Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC:** > Sharon, Thank you for the great review. I'm so glad you got in touch with us. Our experience in design and installation really came into play on your project. It's wonderful that you're so pleased with the results. **★★★★★ — Lisa Dolloph, Aug. 2017** > Bill and his crew were wonderful to work with. The process was smooth and easy. Bill returned my initial call quickly and we were able to set up a date for him to look at the project. Bill came out once to look at the work and then came out again for a follow up and explanation of the estimate. The paperwork was all sent by email and was done in a very timely manner. We even had the option to pay online which was great for us. Once the project was booked, Bill and his crew came out to set up the lighting. Every member of the team was extremely professional and cleaned up all supplies. We are thrilled with the final project and we highly recommend working with Bill. He is extremely knowledgeable and very pleasant to deal with. **Comment from Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC:** > Lisa, Thanks for the great review! I realize that everyone leads a busy life so i try to make the whole process as easy as possible. Our technicians always do such a nice neat job on the installations. They make me proud. ## Selected projects - [Award - Winning Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/award-winning-projects-pj-vj~6161600) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Secret Garden Terrace](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/secret-garden-terrace-pj-vj~5931853) - Location: Newton, MA - Photos: 7 - Description: Northern Outdoor Lighting LLC installed a subtle yet effective Landscape Lighting System to illuminate this private garden and terrace for entertaining and relaxing.
