Proposal Terms
Review our terms and policies for your custom lighting or electrical project.
Warranty
-
Parts: Warrantied for one year.
-
Labor: Warrantied for ninety days from the date of installation, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
-
Manufacturer Warranties: Many of our featured brands, including Lutron, DMF Lighting, and GardenLight LED, provide significantly longer warranty periods. We will provide the documentation needed to support warranty claims with these manufacturers.
-
Warranty Exclusion Notice: Wireless Interconnect Smoke Detectors We are unable to provide warranty coverage for wireless interconnect smoke detector devices. Due to factors outside of our control, these devices frequently experience communication errors leading to nuisance chirping and potential malfunction.
-
Recommendation: For clients requiring wireless interconnection, we strongly recommend professional-grade smart system devices such as Google Nest Protect. These systems utilize more robust communication protocols (such as Thread/Weave) and provide app notifications regarding device status, battery levels, and potential issues, significantly minimizing the risk of false alarms.
