Captain Matt explains one of his lighting designs. Lighting Design Walk Through Hey guys Captain Matt here, wanted to go over another video here with pictures in it because a lot of you've been liking that. So on this one I just wanted to show you this is sometimes what we'll do for a design, now this is one for us on our initial plans also for our install team sometimes the client as well, and so I just want to go over one with you. The most important thing to note is some clients get this, these arrows do not necessarily mean that a light is going every single place there is an arrow, and also doesn't mean that there's only going to be one light. Where there is an arrow it is simply to show the overall vibe and direction of lights, where they're going to go. So you see here is a picture of the front of the house, we have some up lights that are all gonna go on the bottom, we've got some area enhancement lights that are gonna go right on the front porch, then ...

How we do our wire connections. Andrew Doing Some Wire Connections One of our installers, Andrew, is installing a junction box and shows how we do our wire connections. We use crimps instead of wire nuts because crimps are a mechanical connection. Connections are the weakest point in any system so mechanical crimping is the best option. https://barefootlighting.com/?p=921

Barefoot Lighting Proposal Walk Through Hey guys Captain Matt here, I've had a lot of lighting contractors and lighting designers ask us what we do for a proposal, So I want to do one quick video to kind of walk you through one, and also it allows prospective clients to see what they're going to get and kind of know what to expect. Now this person here, this was a real proposal, they did get a demo and everyone gets a demo depending on the size and scope of the project. Anyways, first is just the cover page. It has their name and address on it, and then a picture from the demo if we had one, or a similar image if not. Second page is a little about us; founded in 2009, fully insured workers comp, then meet the team Captain Matt, Maverick Mike.

What we do when replacing existing lighting. Upgrading existing lighting takes more planning and visits than a new install! Find out why. Hey guys Captain Matt here, just want to go over what I do when clients have existing lighting. So some clients already have existing lighting, maybe some of the lights are out, they’re just not great, and they just want us to replace fixtures. Well I don't recommend this, it is something that some people want to do for budget reasons. The reason I don't recommend it is because replacing the fixture, I can't warranty that fixture because we're just using the existing wiring, the existing transformer, we don't know what kind of shape the wire is in underneath the ground, the connection points, etc. However I just want to go over this with you, so as you can see here, well maybe if you can read my mind, but this client has a pool, a hot tub, and a rock wall. So basically I'm just mapping out what they currently have. So in this ...
