Sponsor Spotlight: Blue Ridge Luxury Lighting
Since 2008, Olin Lucas has been heavily involved in the professional outdoor lighting industry. After thorough research, due-diligence and plenty of prayers, Olin discovered that there were no other companies operating in the area. Taking this as a challenge, he accepted the opportunity to fill the gap and establish his own brand presence in the market with, Blue Ridge Luxury Lighting. Last summer, he and his wife, Christi made the decision to relocate from their hometowns just outside of Baton Rouge, LA. This providing their daughter with a better quality of life, and better educational opportunities, along with being closer to his family who moved here two years ago.
With regard to landscape lighting, Lucas says, “Sure, there are plenty of landscape lighting companies out there today, and the market is overwhelmingly saturated with them”. Many claim that they provide the best quality and service around. What makes Blue Ridge Luxury Lighting different are many things, but for the most part, it’s the focus on great design, our processes are calculated, plus our excellent client retention rate allows us to rise above the rest.
The process always begins with a consultation to discuss the needs and desires for each client, and that consultation is followed by developing a full-scale design plan. From the type of fixture used, to the placement of each cable run, a development of lighting zones (different lighting areas on a property) is configured, including beam spread and lumen intensity for each lamp used. The designers create a design drawing which guide them in proper installation and future maintenance needs. This design drawing is the heartbeat of your lighting system, and allows the team to reference it throughout the entire relationship. Once the installation is complete, the relationship has just begun! There are service maintenance agreements set in place to ensure the system performs for the lifetime of the system.
When you start with great design, you get even better results. As of 2021, Lucas obtained national award-winning design and installation recognition through, Brilliance LED, LLC’s national competition. They earned second place in the nation for design and installation on their, “Louisiana Live Oak”. Brilliance LED, a U.S. based manufacturer in Carefree, AZ., displayed the installation photo on the inside front cover of their national product catalog and front cover of their mini-brochure. These catalogs and brochures are distributed to lighting professionals across the globe. The design crew at Blue Ridge Luxury Lighting has undergone countless hours of training and advanced education in lighting design, in an effort to produce the best overall outcome to every landscape lighting project imaginable.
Each lighting design created is comprehensive, yet it’s also broken up into various zones, as mentioned above. This lets clients start with one focus area and expand the system later. When clients request future expansions, both efficiency and cost savings improve.
Olin says they source and test only the highest-quality fixtures, components, and equipment on the market, and they partner with manufacturers who back their equipment with hassle-free warranties. You won’t find these products at local hardware stores, big-box retailers, or online outlets, as they are only available to professional lighting companies that deliver the highest quality.
All products Blue Ridge Luxury Lighting installs come with a product warranty serviced by their technicians. They will quickly and efficiently repair or replace any faulty equipment without charge during the warranty period; henceforth, you’ll never be left in the dark.
The main reason Blue Ridge Luxury Lighting is becoming one of the most successful landscape lighting companies in the region, is because of their commitment to their clients beyond the installation of their lighting system. From repairs and warranties, to equipment malfunctions and cable breaks, you won’t receive better service from anyone else around. They’re even involved with implementing one of the most sophisticated software service programs in the industry to help them provide exceptional, timely, and efficient service to their valued clients.
