I recommend Sean to anyone looking for their lighting needs. Their knowledge is vast and creative, making sure you're getting what you need, and not items you don't. My next project is to uplight my large Coral Tree. Go to Lighting Distinction and talk to them about your needs; you won't be sorry. Great customer service which can be hard to find. I never thought I'd love a lighting store, but Sean and the employees couldn't be more helpful, friendly, and most importantly, they listen. A big thank you to Sean.

My exhaustive online search for a super-quiet, highly efficient ceiling fan in colors that would…read morework well in the room where I wanted it and with a look that I love took me to Black Whale Home. I wanted to see my short-listed fans up-close and in-person and ask questions and get answers from knowledgeable people, rather than deal with a website chat box. Adam helped me, and he was TERRIFIC. Warm, friendly, so personable, knowledgeable, patient and very easy to talk with and work with. The fan I wanted was on back-order -- not just at Black Whale but pretty much everywhere -- and wouldn't ship for at least a couple of months. The fan is pricey (I view it as an investment) and instead of having to pay in full upfront for a fan that I would not receive for months, Adam was so kind as to allow me to pay 50% upfront, with the balance to be paid when the fan arrived. I really appreciated that. Adam was not there on the day, months later, when I went in to pick up the fan, but the woman who helped me (I think her name was Sandy) was also super-nice and friendly and loaded the boxes into my car for me. I'm excited to have the new fan installed and look forward to another opportunity to work with Black Whale.

After five years of procrastinating, I finally decided to do something about the landscape lighting…read moresituation. 25 years old, the lights that work are an ugly yellow, and most of the lighting fixtures were completely corroded (aluminum on the coast is not ideal, to say the least). After taking a look at Yelp reviews, I reached out to four companies, and Gus with PLL was by far the most professional of the four. He came out, I described the look I was going for - and he proposed a brand of lighting that was made of brass (so wouldn't corrode), with 5k lumens (so, white!) - with a combination of landscape lighting and highlighting. He spent two days removing the old fixtures and replacing them. The results were absolutely stunning, and fairly priced. HIGHLY recommended!

Called Gus to improve our outdoor landscape lighting. We have a large yard with slopes and had way…read moretoo many dark places. Gus installed spotlights on key palm and specimen trees, walking path lights, lights along the top of wrought iron fences, and other areas to make the backyard really "pop".

Hire Gus; you'll be glad that you did.

We have been FanDiego believers for some time, first in Palm Springs and now in San Diego. We had…read morepreviously installed a dozen ceiling fans, including five in our most recent home of 11 years, but somehow never got around to replacing the klutzy, heavy old one in our family room, which has a very high ceiling and slanted beams. So one day when we had nothing else to do, we plotted a tour of several fan shops, just to see what was available, but one stop at FanDiego in San Marcos/Escondido and our shopping was complete. Jess was a pleasure to talk to, had exactly the fan we wanted, as well as a family connection to Specialty Electric for the installation, which was a fabulous choice for the work. Easy peasy purchase and easier peasier installation. The new fan looks better, more contemporary, with a bright light if we need it, whisper quiet and a great pusher of air. Happy, happy, joy, joy.

This place gives you so much inspiration, and you can even slip into a full bathtub to try it 'on'. Haha I've been there twice now and worked with Tara both times on selecting bathroom fixtures/colors/textures etc. She is so knowledgeable and has saved us so much time trying to figure out the website and how to build our project as well as how to order everything. She's super honest as well and doesn't try to upsell. She also has great suggestions and has made our lives dramatically easier. Ferguson has so much to choose from, including hundreds, maybe thousands of items not on the floor, but in different colors, sizes and formats. Even their signature line is amazing - and so well priced. Plus most everything is under warranty and if an item gets damaged upon receipt or in transit, they'll stand behind it. I love that. We're still in the process of choosing everything, but I wanted to write this review now since we're heavily working with Tara and appreciate her input so much. I'll update this when our projects are done.
