The salesman, David Moffatt, said not to worry; we can hold the items and deliver them for free when you are ready to receive them. The delivery was white glove, and the men were wonderful. I later had some trouble with the bar stools, so I spoke to Mr Moffatt, who talked with Bob in the warehouse about going to my home to fix the stools, which Bob did. It was an easy fix with me as a happy customer. I can't say enough about this wonderful store that gives great personal customer service. Oh, before I forget to mention, they have a great showroom with beautiful light fixtures, fans, furniture, and home decor. Lyteworks is a good find, so go check it out!

Avoid this store. We purchased all of our other lighting at Franklin Lighting, and they had all…read moreof our lights in stock. However, they didn't have island pendant lights we liked so we checked out this store. We found lights we liked but were told they were back ordered. Nearly three months later we are still without lights. They received two lights 10 days but are telling us the third light came in broken. However they didn't notify us. We had to go to the store. Of course the sales guy avoided us and hid in the back. Knowing these were on back order you'd think they would have purchased a few extra lights. Go to Franklin Lighting where the reps are knowledgeable and helpful, More importantly they have a warehouse.

Even though we were mid-price point shoppers looking for style at good value, the salesperson was super helpful in selecting everything we needed. Looking at the fixtures in person made a significant difference. They have high end fixtures and a good selection of mid price points. After delivery, We were missing some parts and they quickly replaced them. Also had to exchange the light fixture for a different style and the whole experience was painless. How unusual. Would recommend to anybody doing a renovation project.

Avoid this business if you expect respectful customer service and guaranteed quality products…read more Monika is IMPOSSIBLE to work with. She is dismissive, sarcastic with unproductive e-mails ending with "Have a good day", and flat out horrible as I was warned by my easy going wife. We bought expensive Italian pendant lights that were either poorly manufactured or damaged in transit. We provided clearly marked photos of poorly joined metal parts (see attached). Sat first, she blamed it on our cleaning person who never touched the lights, saying she used a corrosive or at least wrong cleaning agent. Then she blamed it on installation but after backing off on that possibility, she blamed our electrician for not noticing the issue before installation. She wanted us to pay to uninstall them, send them to Miami to be "repaired", leaving open holes in our celling for weeks/months, and then pay to ship them back. She refused to explain what caused the damage after her first two ridiculous reasons were ruled out by her coming over and seeing them. Trust me, she's in the vendor's corner, not yours. BTW. Sophie, our sales person is the opposite. BEYOND NICE. But, Monika rules the roost and is an aggressive obstructionist.

Went the "extra mile" to pull the parts of a delivery truck so I had them in a timely manner.

Lesson learned: get your parats from Hydrologic; hire a professional to get it done!

He was fast and efficient, found the problem and took care of it. We finally have AC in our new home thanks to Zachary! We are so grateful. Thank you Zach so much! Would highly recommend him.

Do not hire BOLT Electric. They did a very sloppy job,…read moreovercharged us, and treated us poorly. We (my mom in her 80s, my special needs brother, and myself) hired BOLT in March of 2025. We suffered damage to our home due to Hurricane Helene. The electric was not damaged, but our home's electric was from the 60s, and BOLT said we needed a whole-home rewire. We were desperate to get construction started and get permits approved. Our first mistake was not getting a second option or estimate. Later, we discovered that they overcharged us by 20 to 30 thousand dollars according to industry-standard pricing. They allowed a new electrician at their company to handle our project with no oversight; he was not an Ace at his job. BOLT removed electric outlets in several places in the home and did not replace them. BOLT left an outlet in the bathroom with the old wiring in the wall and just put a plate over it to "make it go away". All light switches and outlets in our home are at random heights. Here is the worst example. There were no outlets or switches on this wall (next to the sink) before they started. The project manager pointed out at our initial meeting that the conduit running along the wall in front of our home was unseemly, and he does not do things like that. After they completed their work, we have conduit running to our porch lights because BOLT took out the old electric lines and did not replace them, and this was their fix. BOLT stepped on an air conditioning line in the attic, told no one, blamed it on condensation. We had to have our garage ceiling fixed. BOLT crushed the ductwork in the attic, and we had to have it all replaced. The electrician we hired to clean up Bolt's mess told us the outlets they used were not appropriate and we had to have several replaced as well as drywall and painting done. BOLT installed the hood vent wiring off-center. BOLT broke one of our new kitchen cabinets installing the stove. BOLT refused to install the dishwasher; "it was the contractor's problem". BOLT also treated my contractor horribly. My belief is that they had an issue with their ethnicity. Any issue we had with the finishes in the home was treated as our fault or we should have known to communicate the problems they created to the contractor. BOLT refused to speak to the contractor about construction requirements in the kitchen; my 80-year-old mother was used as a go-between them though all three of them were in the house at the same time. We moved back into our home in December 2025, though it was still under construction. We could not afford renting anymore. We told BOLT we were moving home. BOLT chose not to turn on the breaker for the hot water heater. We were concerned about touching the panel as it was horribly mislabeled, and the house was still a construction zone. It took BOLT several attempts to label the electric panel correctly. They priced gouged us, costing us $ 15,574.99 plus to fix their mistakes. We thought speaking to the owner, Patrick, would finally get them to do the right thing but after several requests for a meeting, we were finally told by BOLT's office staff that he has nothing to do with the running of the company. He just poses in sunglasses with his chin up holding his jacket for the website. This leaves his staff to do whatever awful things they want to do to the public. They waited for the electric inspection to pass (it took 2 attempts) and then we were ghosted. I believe they saw a widow and her family suffering a devastating loss from a natural disaster as a way to do a cheap job for money. My mom has been hospitalized several times due to the stress this whole situation has caused our family. Do not hire this BOLT; they will not be honest; they will blame you whenever they can. We did try mediation, but the person "in charge" does not like confrontation, as explained by the office staff; that is why he ran out of the meeting after less than 5 minutes.
