    Houzz Five-Star Review

  • We found Northern Outdoor Lighting by chance after an online search for contractors in our area. After seeing other homes with outdoor lighting during a recent vacation of ours, we decided to see if it would have the same effect on our home. Bill at Northern Outdoor Lighting made it a reality. The welcoming warm picture that our lighted home now provides at night has added a whole new dimension to our property. Bill was very responsive to our inquiries, and happily and quickly provided an at home visit to discuss options. We decided to have the front of our property lighted. Bill’s team completed the job on schedule with absolutely no evidence of the work that had been done other than the beautiful lighting that our house now has. We are already planning work for the back of our house and will indeed be looking to Northern Outdoor Lighting in the near future. Northern Outdoor Lighting has our highest recommendation and confidence.  A pleasure to work with!

  • Northern Outdoor Lighting really listened to what we were looking for in our outdoor space. The lighting that they recommended is perfect. 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.

  • 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. His team was a pleasure to work with when we were confronted with tight schedules and fixed budgets.  Northern Outdoor Lighting earns my highest recommendation as the premiere outdoor lighting expert in New England.

  • Northern Outdoor Lighting upgraded our outdated outdoor lighting and added new lighting to enhance the surrounding landscape: a New Hampshire site with mixed woodlands, fern covered fields and banks, and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. It is as if the moon were seeping through our trees.  A perfect job, on-time and under budget.

  • Northern Outdoor Lighting provided outdoor lighting for our garden in Cambridge, MA. I called all of their references before we hired them. All of the people I spoke with gave Bill Knowles glowing references. As much as I was skeptical, it was the best decision we made to hire Northern Outdoor Lighting! Bill and his team worked quickly and efficiently. They came back at least twice to tweak the color temperature of the lamps and to add some additional lights. Our garden was transformed!

  • Bill did a wonderful job with our front landscape lighting as well as the lighting in the outdoor kitchen. He suggested the layout of where the lighting would go and recommended the fixtures to use. He did a wonderful job with the installation, and I am very pleased with the results. He is professional and a pleasure to work with.

  • 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 and is concise and precise in project planning and product detail. His crew was careful, friendly and accommodated all our wishes. We couldn’t be happier with the final outcome that now beautifully accents our property.

  • Bill and his team did an incredible job installing a full lighting plan on our property. 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 cannot go wrong with Northern Outdoor.

  • What a great experience all around. These guys are pros.  They did great work and were flexible in working with me to maximize my spend while helping me to make the right tradeoffs to control the budget. The design work by Steve was fantastic. The install was excellent and the installers even better. Everyone I worked with in this company took great pride in their work and getting it right. In fact, they finished today and could have just walked away, but they noticed that some of the bulbs could be changed to enhance the look, and they did exactly that. They took notes and planned to come back to fix them and make them uniform. I not only recommend these guys, I highly recommend them. Fantastic work and fantastic people. I really enjoyed every single member of their crew and their company. Aces across the board.
