As always, Mr. Benetech and his crew accomplished the job in an excellent manner. They were on time, went straight to work, and finished the job in less than an hour. Marlin's Company is one of only 3 service Companies that I have had contact with since moving to Birmingham 18 years ago that I rate as a "Customer Focused, Quality Organization"!

Marlin and his team were professional, punctual, and did great work. He was very patient in answering all the questions my husband and I had regarding the electrical component of the installation. They did a great job and I would recommend them to anyone. I know in the future if I need help or to fix a problem, he will not hesitate.

I have used Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Birmingham for two different homes. Whenever I have needed help or advice regarding my lighting, Marlin Bennetch has responded quickly and professionally. Once again, I phoned requesting some customer service and again my husband and I were more than pleased with their response and quality service. Marlin is without a doubt the best person we have ever worked with. Unequivocally, this is the company I recommend for landscape lighting needs.

Once again, Martin was punctual, friendly & informative. The problem turned out to be age-related deterioration of the original system (again) in more than one spot. The fix was not very expensive and was finished the day after I originally called. I highly recommend OLP.

I told Mr. Bennett-that I wanted to go ahead with estimated job to place lighting on deck. Told him that I was having an event on 4/22/16. His schedule indicated ability the end of April, but that he would do installation ASAP, and that's what they did I came in the next couple of days and the lighting was in places well before the event! OLP is the best. Absolute professional.
Description of Work: OLP had done lighting of the front of our house in the past. It is wonderful! This next job was to install lighting on our back deck-half-moon copper lights installed on railings.
