I did have to make a deposit, however that deposit was deducted when I ordered all of my lights. Al sat down with me for countless hours, and even went to my new home and made suggestions on lighting that he felt was appropriate. I felt the hundred dollar deposit was fair, as he spent so much time sitting with me, and even traveled to my new home so that he would understand the layout and be able to make appropriate recommendations. The lights were more than I ever expected and I was very pleased with the quality. Also, and I believe most importantly, I would have pictures of lights and Al would find similar ones in his catalogs in a different brand that were much more inexpensive, but yet still great quality. Finally, I could not find a pediment light that I liked for over my sink, and Al actually made one for me- it came out amazing and matched the overall look that I was going for in my new kitchen. To summarize, I am sorry that some people did not have the experience I had with the Lighting Showcase-however, after reading this review, I hope you will give them a chance-I think you will be very happy with the customer service , quality of products and overall experience you will have in the store.

If Lisa could be half as wonderful as Chris, then she'd probably get better reviews. I bought a bunch of stuff from Lisa, like 2 pendant kitchen lights, an outdoor lamp post, 2 bathroom sconces, and 2 chairs. Lisa was consistent in her disposition from beginning to end: rude in the beginning and insufferably rude when problems arose with my order. Dealing with Lisa to fix the problem was an overall unpleasant experience, to the point that I regretted doing business with her. There are plenty of stores to buy lights from in the area. I'll be checking these places out going forward: - Yankee Lighting Workshop, Wayland - A.D.

Patti Bros. has been in business since 1935, so obviously they have made a lot of customers happy…read more Although they are known as a high end lighting design and supply business, all I needed was a repair of a broken socket in my bedside wall-mounted, swing-arm lamp. I was concerned that Patti Bros. wouldn't even be interested in such a modest job. Wrong I was! For the exact same price as the (unnamed) other nearby lamp repair shop that made the same repair four years ago (yes, that repair only lasted four years), Mike Patti replaced my broken socket and rethreaded the power cord through the arm, in less than a day. He was most pleasant, and even came to my car in the parking lot to pick up the lamp from me and to return it to me once repaired. I gave him a tip when I picked up the lamp and he asked if I was sure. Of course I was sure; he's a nice guy and did great, quick work on a job that wasn't really worth his time and effort, but they try to make every customer happy. Be nice to them and they'll be nice to you. Save yourselves the trouble and get it fixed right the first time. There should be hundreds of five star reviews on Yelp because Patti Bros. definitely is a five star business. I assume most people are too busy to write reviews.

I have been a customer of Scott, his brothers and even his father going way back. They were always highly recommended and well known in the trade as experts for antique and unusual lighting and repairs. I have bought many pieces over the years and had Scott refurbish some older lamps for me as well. His work and his knowledge was always top notch and it was always a treat to visit the old barn and see the sons and their amazing collection of lights, shades, furniture and unusual old things. All of them were friendly, talented craftsmen and always fair and straightforward. Glad Scott is up and running again. I can highly recommend the skill and the work they do. John G.

I placed calls to the top five in my area (MetroWest Boston) and only one responded same day. A very pleasant gal from Wired called me almost immediately, and within minutes booked my appointment for the following week at my request. I had told her that my order for the charger kept getting delivery delayed and that I was uncertain whether I would actually have it in time. She said that if I wanted, they keep Tesla chargers in stock, and if desired they could book the install this week, and I return the ordered charger to Tesla service center. I selected the day after tomorrow and voila Paul, the very knowledgeable and friendly electrician/installer showed up with the charger. After some discussion about amps, load, location, and yes, sports, my new charger was beautifully installed, the work area all cleaned up and my new car charging up! They made it so easy. They are highly responsive, efficient and take great pride in their work. They specialize in EV chargers of all kinds. Highly recommend!

My experience with DQR could not have gone any better.

The quality of their work was outstanding.

They cleaned up everything when the job was done and left my house in the condition it was in when they came.

They do good work at this nice little shop in downtown Concord, and because they're one of the few places around that specialize in what they do, it's popular. I'd say the main drawback is the parking, which can be tricky as it's right in Concord Center. Sometimes you have to circle the block a few times for a spot, and when you're carrying a floor lamp or a bulky box, the closer the better, so parking far away isn't ideal. Also, the shop is tiny, and hard to move around in, so I prefer to go right when they open at 10am to avoid crowds. They don't provide written estimates or quotes, they just verbally give you a number, which I don't like, especially when I had to send an estimate to an Etsy seller for reimbursement for repairs on a lamp that broke during shipping. I had to wait until after I had paid to send the receipt, which wasn't great. I will say that their estimates are typically in the range they initially provide, with the exception of one repair that ended up costing more than expected.
