We had some electrical problems with the old system and received Neals name as a contact to make the repair. When he looked at our lighting set up he made some suggestions to improve the illumination of our property. We liked his ideas and bought his suggestions lock, stock and barrel. House and accent points look fabulous now. So glad we called Neal to help us out. **Comment from LightScape Transformations:** > Joe & Darlyn it was great to get to know you both. I am loving the new lightscape look of your house and front rock wall & trees! Thanks for trusting me to brighten up your home! **★★★★★ — Sharon Struckle, Aug. 2019** > We couldn’t be more pleased with our new outdoor lighting created by Neal of LightScape Transformations! What we appreciated most was his ability to work with us to figure out exactly what fit our needs. He really cared about what we wanted and was very patient and flexible when we changed our minds. The initial estimate was very professional with detailed pictures and accurate pricing. Neal's communication skills are stellar, as he would keep us apprised of the schedule every step of the way . . . from ordering the fixtures to the final installation. You will find that his pricing is not only fair, but a total bargain considering his high level of expertise and quality of the equipment and installation. We are looking forward to using LightScape Transformations again when it's time to "light up" out back yard! **Comment from LightScape Transformations:** > Thank you for the review Sharon. Working with you and Jeff was a ton of fun. Your home is beautiful, and I love the light on your monster boulder / water feature. Can't wait to see how cool the Red and Green filters transform your everyday lighting into Christmas lights this November! Thank you for the opportunity to LightScape your beautiful home. **★★★★★ — Denise Buchholz, March 2019** > From the beginning of the project through the end and beyond, Neil Smith has been an exceptional businessman with impeccable work. Our home used to sit unnoticed at the end of a dark cul-de-sac and now has been transformed to a beautiful display thanks to Neil's work. Neil spends time with you to find out what your goals are and formulates a plan accordingly, all the while keeping the cost of the project at a fair and competitive price. There are no hidden fees, no surprise add-on's; Neil outlines the project cost down to the finest detail. His communication is timely and demeanor is always friendly and professional. Neil kept us informed every step of the way. If you need a lighting professional, Neil with LightScape Transformations is your guy! **Comment from LightScape Transformations:** > Thank you Denise! It was so much fun to work with you and Elijah! Thank you for trusting LightScape to beautify your gorgeous home! The picture is worth a thousand words of thanks from me to you! **★★★★★ — VOLT® Lighting, March 2017** > In my role as Communications Director for VOLT & AMP Lighting, I work closely with Mr. Smith and his company, LightScape Transformations. Not only is he an exceptional landscape lighting designer, he is an innovator and contributes greatly to our product development process. I highly recommend his services for anyone looking to transform their property with a creative and skilled application of light. **★★★★★ — Paul Korty, Nov. 2016** > Neal, > > You and your company did an outstanding job on the exterior of our home including landscaping and walkways, and patio. We recommend you most highly. Your experience as an electrical engineer, coupled with your friendly help was a pleasure to deal with. You very much wanted us to be happy, and we are very happy with the result. Your Demo on our home before starting the job let us see various lighting options, as well as colors, shapes, and combinations that helped us picture what the end result would be. Most helpful! The bollards on our front walkway are awesome; and we have received many compliments from people. The way you run your business is very professional and of high quality. You kept our costs in line with your/our budget and always tried to give us the best deal you could. Captain Paul & Terri Korty **Comment from LightScape Transformations:** > Thank you Captain Paul for allowing us to transform your entire estate to a nighttime paradise. It has been a true pleasure working with you to upgrade your current system to the latest LED technology and product. I love your Scroll Towers leading to your front door. Your home has become one of the most attractive in the neighborhood at night! **★★★★★ — William Spreadbury, Sept. 2015** > The owner of LightScape Transformations (Neal Smith) asked I photograph his company's (then) latest outdoor lighting project. Taking with Neal made it very clear he required "spot on" quality. My first look-see of this project made clear Lighting Transformations apply's very suburb engineering and artistic skills. The opportunity to work capturing Neal's work for all to see was most enjoyable! **Comment from LightScape Transformations:** > Bill, your photography skills are legendary, and your skills in HDR are phenomenal. Thank you for taking the time to take wonderful pictures of some of my work. This photo is one of my favorites of all time...thanks for capturing my work so perfectly. **★★★★★ — terry\_feazel, Sept. 2015** > Neal was great to work with. He worked tirelessly to make sure we were happy with the design. He moved lights around the yard to achieve just the perfect effect we were looking for. We had recently moved from the Midwest to Florida and we needed a lot of help in making our new home's landscaping look great. Neal's design far exceeded our expectations in both of our design requirements: 1) Making the house/landscaping POP and 2) security of home. I now call our home a resort, especially the pool area. I like the fact that "Lightscape Transformation" has a lifetime warranty on their work- huge selling point. I would highly recommend Neal for any size project. Everything from his bid package to the finished job was very professional. I wish that my multi-million dollar project managers, that I handle at work, were as thorough and professional as Lightscape was. > > Terry **★★★★★ — christenmois, Sept. 2015** > Neal was very thorough throughout the process of our landscape lighting, from planning to installation, paying close attention to budget and detail. He presented his proposal in a professional manner and worked with us in achieving the outcome we desired. The products he uses are high quality and he backs their already incredible warranty. I would definitely recommend LightScape Transformations to anyone looking to do landscape lighting. **Comment from LightScape Transformations:** > Chris, you and Steve have an absolutely beautiful home. Thank you for letting me show it off during the evenings! Thank you for being one of our very first customers back in 2015! **★★★★★ — HU-2619831, Aug. 2015** > Have been looking for an expert to design and install a high end, high function lighting system. The owner has an engineering background (which is critical for the design/load aspect of the system) and a flair for the creative (makes it look very cool). He has all the tools to properly explain the process and understands the many lighting options. He recommended an amazing solution and has exceeded what we were expecting. I rarely take the time to make a recommendation but in this case, there is a BIG difference with this company and Neal Smith has skills that are not typically available is this business. If your even thinking about a starter system or a full yard solution, give this company some time and be prepared to be pleasantly surprised like I was. **Comment from LightScape Transformations:** > Thank you Dan for the opportunity to work with you to transform your beautiful home into a fantastic LightScape worthy of the highest awards available anywhere. Your input and feedback enabled us to "dial in" a wonderland of lights around your home with the color, dimming, and remote control functionality that you were looking for. I can only pray for clients as wonderful as you were to work with! Enjoy your lifetime warranted and supported lighting solution. Thank you for the positive feedback. ## Selected projects - [Stunning Marvin & Erin Smith Estate](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/stunning-marvin-and-erin-smith-estate-pj-vj~5818318) - Location: Lenexa, KS - Photos: 3 - Description: This stunning estate LightScape combines Sterling Lighting's warm 2700 Kelvin white colors on the stone walls, pathways, and mulch beds, with 3,000 Kelvin white on the clump magnolias to feature the green foliage and near white trunks, and 5,000 Kelvin to highlight the blue colors in the Arizona Blue Atlas Cedar and Colorado Blue Spruce Trees.
