Mike went above and beyond to transform my backyard into pure magic with the lighting. From start to finish, he was so professional and flexible. I can’t recommend Ground Lighting Tampa enough! I will definitely be return customer with my front yard lighting and audio additions!

Five Stars!!! Michael and his team at Grounded Lighting did a fantastic job installing OELO lights on my home. Not only was he very professional, his prices were fair. I am thrilled with how my house looks and will be using him again to install some accent lighting on the trees in my backyard next. Highly recommend!

I wish there was an option to give 10 stars! Grounded Lighting is an amazing company to do business with. The owner, Mike Perez, brings expertise, experience, and competence. He communicates with you throughout the process, answers questions, is knowledgeable, and has great design ideas when you’re not quite sure what you want. The pathway lighting in the back of my house has made all the difference. It’s elegant, tasteful, and makes a dramatic impression. The uplighting on the front palm tree is stunning! The app allows you to change colors and individualize the lights to your preference. It has made a huge difference in the front and I love that these lights are year round! Mike’s professionalism is at the highest level, and he was meticulous in his work. I would highly recommend Grounded Lighting Tampa for all of your permanent lighting needs.

Michael installed our lights and our hearts could not be more happy or more thankful. He was so knowledgeable and so kind. He set everything up beautifully. He worked from sunrise to dark and really made our “light” dream come true and just in time for Christmas. We will use him for all of our lighting endeavors and encourage others to as well. Thank you SO much Michael!
