"I just wanted to take a minute and compliment you and your team for a truly professional lighting installation at our home in Oak Hill, VA. From your first visit, you and your team prompt, professional, neat and timely in their completion. The end result was an exceptional lighting display, which has resulted in numerous compliments from friends and neighbors. In an area of Northern Virginia where interactions with home improvement contractors can be very frustrating, dealing with you and your company was a pleasure. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking to enhance the beauty of their home with any form of lighting. Thanks again.

"I'm happy to recommend WEStar Illumination. They did a terrific job understanding our needs, and in designing a system that provide exactly the look that we wanted. They're easy to work with, dependable, and do high quality work.

"I had the good fortune to learn of Bill Smith and his company, WEStar Illumination, four years ago when I wanted to install landscape lighting. Since then, I have enjoyed an excellent working relationship with him and his wife Sheryl of Willow Garden Design, a landscape and landscape lighting needs. They come up with creative solutions, and the end product is always beautiful. The year-round maintenance is a real lifesaver for me, and it is really convenient to deal with one team for everything. I would recommend them highly—and so would my yard! It has never looked better!"

"After receiving quotes from several large landscaping/lighting companies, we picked a smaller company, WEStar Illumination for the following reasons:

1.  Best price, by far, for quality lighting fixtures and installation. Two year free follow-up service was included in his price.
2. Bill Smith is a true professional that cares about his clients. He always arrived at our house on time as promised. He was courteous and pleasant, and extremely knowledgeable in designing and appropriate lighting scheme for our yard. He made several trips to our house during the day and evening to test the lihgting placements and ensure the we were satisfied with the lighting fixtures and illumination effect in our yard. Terrific personalized service.

Great results. We highlt recommend WEStar Illumination.

"Bill and WEStar Illumination have provided great outdoor lighting solutions on two separate occasions for our home landscaping and deck needs. On both projects his professional approach laying out the plans, pricing the work, and then executing the lighting solution was a wonderful customer experience. The best part is that after the lighting has been setup, WEStar will comes back on a seasonal basis and make sure the lighting continues to deliver the results originally intended when first deployed.
