Tazz Lighting

Driver license plates ending in B11 cut me off twice going 50+ on traffic, and when in front of me, made unnecessary brakes.
Fuzzy impressions are everything… unfortunately it was a disappointment

We (K1 Speed Inc.) have been working with Martin at Tazz Lighting for over 10 years because of their great service and fair pricing. Our electric indoor kart racing centers wouldn’t be the same with out their exceptional work and dedication to perfection.

Here at Ocio Design Group we use Tazz lighting Martin and David on a lot on our projects. I find Tazz to be very responsive during the entire project, great selection, aggressive pricing and they care about the outcome of the final product, that is important.
I highly recommend them! Martin I think is the «hardest working person in the business»

Martin and Robert are truly the epitome of professional. Courteous and genuine. They truly want what’s best for you, not their pocketbook. Martin went through the list of lights that were designated by my contractor and he helped find some perfect alternatives that saved me a bundle. That’s the type of guy I want helping me out! Someone who cares about your budget and understands the struggle of a new business. This is the type of guy that I’m going to do business with for a loooong time. You should too…

Martin was great along with the rest of his team! They helped me to design my yogurt shop and I’m thrilled with the lights they picked out for me! They’ve been very patient with me along the design process as well.

We arrived to Tazz lighting based on a recommendation from a good friend.
At the front desk we where introduced to Martin the owner.
We schedule an appointment to discuss options.
The first meeting as all the others was very productive and helped us to understand what we are able to get based on our budget.
During the whole process Martin was able to offer us best prices (and we checked a lot).
To any questions we had we always get immediate answer and solution.
We had a very uncared electrician Martin and his crew help us to pass this obstacle as well.
At the end of the day we where and still very satisfied with Tazz professionalism, pricing and above all interpersonal relations.

Tazz Lighting has some pretty cool product offerings. As the owner/​operator of a private security firm I can tell you first hand the benefits of having decent lighting. Not only can it make a space more livable and inviting but it can serve to make your home or business a safer environment. Our company refers any of our clients that need to improve their lighting to Tazz Lighting. They can even make all your lights flash if your alarm is going off! How cool is that! Seriously though, whether you just want to make your home a brighter and more beautiful place or you are looking to do a complete overhaul of your lighting system to incorporate all the high tech lighting bells and whistles this is the company you need to talk to. Ask for the owner David Shepherd. He has amazing vision when it come to lighting and he is probably one of the most honest and ethical men I know (his accent is kinda cool too, lol).

Their lighting design skills are great but customer service is abominable. If you’re not a large commercial customer, you’ll be ignored after the sale. Not at all what was promised during the consultation and design phases. I had to beg for responses and support every step of the way. Pricing is fine but I’d have paid double for a lighting design company that followed through.

These guys are great! They are very helpful and attentive. We had some trouble with a transformer, and Martin and Miguel were very prompt and efficient getting it fixed. Would use them again for any lighting needs.

My family and I picked this company to redo our outdoor lighting system. Since we have a large home we needed a large number of lights. We wanted everything new, since the previous system wasn’t working properly and it was so old. At this point they came to my house and I asked them to give me a full estimate for all the work that needed to be done. A few days later I got an incomplete estimate, and emailed them to send me complete estimate. They send me a new estimate which they claimed was the full estimate it was for a little over 13,000. Then they came again to meet with us and show us where the outdoor lights were going to go. At this point they told us the estimate didn’t include the labor, at which point we had already asked them at least 3 times to make sure that everything including labor should be included. We were a bit annoyed but we agreed on them to do the work. At this point the estimate was a little over 13,000 dollars, after adding the labor it was close to 17,000. We talked to them and sign a contract and agreed to pay 50% deposit and the rest at the end of the work.
A few days latter we transferred half of the 17,000 and asked them the date in which the labor would begin. The day after we paid the deposit, they asked us to pay for the full amount. We didn’t understand why, and we called Martin and one of the other people we were dealing with, as well as we replied to Lyndsey over email, explaining that we had agreed to pay 50% deposit and the rest after the work was done. Martin called be back and said to me that we didn’t have to pay the full other half, but we had to pay the rest of the parts (again a different story yet again). They refused to do the work until we paid the parts in full, and they said that it was ok to just pay half the labor. We called the company again and the Roxy who was the person that talked to my family and I told us that we were right, when we asked her to put this in writing she refused saying that she needed to check with her boss and that she didn’t want to get in trouble. After arguing with them we agreed to pay the full amount of the parts, so we transferred an additional 6,000 dollars, at this point we had paid for most of the work. We would have usually cancelled the work at this point, because we thought this was sketchy, but we had no choice because we had booked a ticked for a family friend to come and supervise the installation, since it was such a high investment. They knew about this, because we had coordinated the date of his arrival to the date in which the project would start. The project that was supposed to last 5 days, and he had booked his trip for 7 days. At my friend’s arrival, we called them and asked them when they would come the next day, to which they replied that they wouldn’t be coming for a few days since they didn’t have an engineer to supervise the installation and not all the lights had arrived. We called them and told them this was unacceptable, and that they would start the installation of what they did had. After 2 days or arguing and they finally showed up. Since they were late we were forced to change our family friend ticket, its been two weeks now and they are still not done. On top of that they refused to remove the old lights, saying that that is not included in the labor, and that if we wanted that we needed to pay extra. A day after that they also told us that if we wanted an additional switch it would be 500, we were a bit upset because we had told them this before, but we agreed to pay this, two days later it was 670…
This is one of the most unprofessional companies I have ever worked with. I will not only never work with them again but after their installation is completed I will be putting a complaint with the BBB. They do not communicate between them and different people in the company tell you different things. Not only that but they do not take responsibility for their mistakes, and are rude and defensive when you point it out to them. They are expensive and so not worth it. Before we gave them the deposit they were charming and nice, but as soon as we gave them half the money their true colors started to show. I hardly ever bother writing negative reviews so far I have only done 2 or 3 in my whole life… Please don’t hire them.

We recently completed our home remodel. I worked with Justin Strouse on selecting the light fixtures and mirrors throughout our entire home. Justin was a breath of fresh air! He was consultative, professional and inspired! He took the time to help me bring my vision for each room of our house to life. Justin is a wealth of knowledge and every single item he helped me select tied in perfectly with the rest of the house! Our remodel took nine months. Out of all the people I worked with throughout this process Justin was by far the most fun to work with! He has a great sense humor! His taste in home design is impeccable! Thank you for being a visionary Justin!!:) We love our new home!!!

This is my first review on Unilocal but it is truly merited. In many ways, Justin Strousse exceeded my expectations both in terms of his expertise, knowledge, and generosity in sharing his ideas. I can definitely recommend that you have him come out to your home and only wish I had contacted him much earlier in my remodel process.

Tazz Lighting is extremely knowledgeable about every type of lighting, and they are so responsive! Would recommend their services and products without reservation.

I have been working with Tazz Lighting for over six years, specifying and purchasing production and custom lighting for my custom residential design projects. They remain my first choice due to their service and unlimited selection. I work primarily with Martin but have found the entire staff to be knowledgeable and responsive beyond expectation. I highly recommend them for any and all services and products they supply.
