“Hired this company to service my outdoor up-lighting system. The technician was timely and identified the work to be done. Given the bad weather, he informed me he needed to come back on a given day to finish the work. He did have the office reschedule and he returned as schedule to complete the work. He walked me through the work he had done when he was finished. Very thorough and professional. i would definitely use them again.”

“I have loved working with Karen and really appreciate her expertise and creativity. Her lighting design has transformed our yard into a very special place at night by highlighting the evergreens, dogwoods, plants, and the canopy we have above our property because of the large trees that surround it. Our guests definitely notice the atmosphere that she has created and the quality of her work. In addition to creating beautifully lit surroundings, Karen is very conscientious about fixing any problems you might have. She went out of her way to accommodate us after our landscapers mistakenly cut through a wire and we had out of town guests coming. She wanted the lighting to be working perfectly for their arrival and came over right away to fix it. We are very happy with the job her company has done and have continued to add to our lighting under Karen's expert guidance.”

A well-lit home is essential for both functional and aesthetic reasons. Lighting designers will analyze your Fort Washington, MD home's layout, structure and needs to create an effective lighting plan throughout your home. Though electrical engineers or interior designers can take on the task of outfitting your home with the appropriate lighting services, a professional Fort Washington lighting designer explores lighting as a technique.

What is a lighting plan designer?


Lighting designers often have a knowledge of physics, optics, ergonomics and environmental issues along with an eye for construction and design, allowing them to devise lighting plans that not only improve visibility but create hierarchies, dynamics and a mood within a space. Often working in conjunction with an architect or interior designer, lighting companies will work to incorporate reflective surfaces and integrate daylight. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of lighting showrooms & sales: Interior Designers & Decorators, Design-Build Firms, Electricians.

Think about how you plan to use each area of your Fort Washington, MD home. It's important to communicate to your Maryland lighting designer which space will be used as an office and which will be a media room, for example, as these will require very different lighting services. In addition, consider how you'd prefer to control the lights. Lighting technology today includes dimmers, sensors, photocells (that let lights react to the amount of daylight in a space), programmable scene controls (that let you program different settings for varied lighting) and whole-house lighting controls (that let you control all or a portion of your home's lights from one source), allowing you to tailor your lighting controls however you wish.

Be wary of electricians or sales reps posing as lighting designers. Identify professional lighting companies by finding out whether they're involved in lighting programs or associations such as the International Association of Lighting Designers, and confirming that they have LC (Lighting Certification) or CLC (Certified Lighting Consultant) credentials.

Questions to ask a prospective lighting designer:


  • How long have you been in the business?
  • How many projects like mine have you completed?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Are you licensed and insured?
  • Are you a participant of any professional programs or associations?
  • How do you charge, and what does that include?
  • Can you give me a written estimate?
  • What do your services include?
  • When can the job get done?
  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget? What about when there are changes to materials or labor pricing?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns you foresee with this project?
