1. Sun
Sun is a lighting design company serving Arlington, VA. It has been in business for 6 years. A design consultation typically starts with a walkthrough or a look at the floor plan, a conversation about how each room is used, and photos of furniture and finishes. The homeowner then receives drawings and product suggestions, often with revisions before wiring or ceiling work begins. On their profile, Sun lists project type: new lighting installation and replacement of lighting; ceiling height: under 8 feet, 8 - 10 feet, 10 - 14 feet and over 14 feet; construction type: existing properties, remodels and new construction; property type: house, condo/apartment, townhouse and business. Remodels, new builds, and kitchen renovations are the most common moments to bring in a lighting designer, since ceilings and walls are already open for wiring. Mention whether the project is a remodel or new construction, if ceilings are open, and whether an electrician is already chosen for the installation. The number of rooms, level of drawing detail, and whether the designer also selects and specifies fixtures are the main drivers of lighting design fees. Customers in Arlington and nearby areas such as Falls Church, Alexandria and Annandale can request a quote. To get started, send Sun a request on Fixerlane with the details of your project.
