Commercial LED retrofits
Modern upgrades that improve visibility, cut consumption and take the maintenance burden off your team.

Home › About us
A commercial lighting contractor that also runs the utility paperwork, so the incentive is secured before the first fixture is ordered.
We work with commercial property owners, facility managers, industrial operators and business owners across the Mid-Atlantic to replace outdated lighting, improve how a building performs and bring its running costs down for good.
The technical side of a lighting retrofit is not the hard part. The hard part is the utility program: knowing which measures qualify, submitting documentation the way the program wants it, holding the job until pre-approval lands and completing the verification afterwards so the incentive is actually paid. That is the part we built the business around.
We have served more than 10,000 customers, from single barbershops to hospital campuses, and every product we supply carries a 5-year warranty set out in writing.

Turnkey commercial lighting that improves facility performance while reducing consumption and operating cost.
Modern upgrades that improve visibility, cut consumption and take the maintenance burden off your team.
Guidance and full administration for businesses participating in utility energy-efficiency programs.
Durable lighting specified for manufacturing plants, processing floors and heavy industrial operations.
High-bay systems and controls that raise productivity and safety across racking, picking and docks.
Scalable rollouts across multi-site estates and managed commercial real estate, site by site.
A written 5-year product warranty, 1 year on workmanship, and a claim route that a human answers.
From the first property walk to the utility sign-off, one team owns the project. Nothing is handed off and nothing falls between two contractors.
We count and log every fixture, record mounting heights, run hours and existing wattages, and measure the light levels you actually have.
We identify the qualifying measures, prepare the application and hold the project until written pre-approval is issued by the utility.
Licensed electricians install to manufacturer instructions and code, working nights, weekends or holidays where the operation needs it.
We complete the post-installation verification the program requires, which is the step that decides whether the incentive is paid.
Warranty documentation handed over at completion, and a maintained-service option where we keep the fixtures running at no further cost.
You get the before and after consumption in writing, so the saving is a number on a bill rather than a promise on a proposal.
Technical expertise, professional service and results you can check against a meter.
We identify which programs a facility qualifies for and manage the paperwork through approval, so the incentive is secured before the first fixture is ordered.
Installations are carried out by licensed electricians to manufacturer instructions and applicable electrical code, with minimal disruption to daily operations.
Every fixture we supply is DesignLights Consortium listed or equivalent, which is what makes a project eligible for prescriptive utility incentives in the first place.
Occupancy sensors and lighting controls are specified as part of the scope, not sold back later, because they carry their own incentive and their own savings.
Fewer lamp changes, fewer ballast failures and fewer lift call-outs. On maintained agreements we keep the fixtures running at no further cost to you.
Uniform light levels across aisles, work cells and car parks improve safety and make quality inspection and picking accuracy measurably easier.
Nights, weekends and holidays are normal for us. The lighting changes over while the floor is quiet and the operation runs the next morning as usual.
Products carry a 5-year warranty and installation workmanship carries 1 year, set out in writing rather than promised on a call.
We take on licensed electricians, lighting technicians, energy auditors and project coordinators across all four of our territories, and a lot of the work runs outside normal hours because that is when facilities can give us the floor.
