Jordan and the office was great to work. Jordan was very knowledgeable in his work.
Very conscientious, friendly and appeared knowledgeable. Appreciated the helpful communications with Travis!
Minuteman services were awesome to work with, Fair and Honest. Upfront about charges and quick response. Jordan was professional and knowledgeable. Thank you!!! Will definitely be using them for our home needs here on out.
Matt came to change the lights timer and when he finished he took the time to clean up really good after all the insulation fell from the ceiling
Minute Man was quick to come out, gave a free estimate and fixed our fire place without any hassles. From start to finish was a great experience. Will call again!
Jordan at Minuteman Services was fantastic! He came out quickly to fix my mom’s furnace and had it running again in no time. He took the time to explain everything clearly so we knew exactly what was going on and what to expect. Super professional, friendly, and efficient — couldn’t ask for better service. Highly recommend!
We had issues with one of the lights in our office building. I googled places to repair them, and was impressed with the reviews this company had. They were scheduled to come give us a quote on a Wednesday and to our surprise the light was fixed before they were scheduled to come take a look. The repair was done quickly and I was impressed with everyone in the company. So happy with the repair that was Made!
My furnace is getting old and had some issues this year. Minuteman has done maintenance for me since we bought our home. Contacted Jarrod and he sent Jordan out to check things out. They said they could fix it if they needed to, and would recommend to repair it over a replacement, but my preference was just fix it once and for all and get a new one. They gave me a quote including about $6,000 in optional upgrades. After speaking to them, they helped me decide that only a small upgrade of $800 was the best choice for me and my family and my home. I am willing to pay top dollar for the best system available, but they said that a lower price system was actually better for me in my situation. These guys are honest to a fault and absolutely the best at what they do.
I want to give a HUGE SHOUTOUT to Minuteman Services LLC - While my mother was getting her yearly checkup/service on her furnace, she mentioned an issue she was having with her main power connection to her house to the service tech Jordan. Jordan immediately recognized the danger as last winter's ice had completely disconnected ground and also left the main power dangling by a thread. Minuteman Services LLC not only recognized the issue, but got it taken care of both quickly (and correctly) making my Mom's house safe again - and at an ABSOLUTELLY unbeatable price. The honesty, empathy and compassion shown by this company is one that is SECOND to NONE!! I want to personally thank them for the superior job well done!! I highly recommend Minuteman Services LLC for all your HVAC and Electrical service needs!! Thank you again!!
Great to work with and great on follow-up! I had limited time when I did the one-liner above and am now coming back to add more detail. Minuteman did a full HVAC replacement at our home. They did not suggest the full replacement, but I requested it due to the age of our system and the upgrades I wanted. The new system has more functionality with better efficiency and includes a humidifier and an electronic filter. The installers were very professional and respectful in our home. And Travis oversaw the entire process from start to finish including a follow-up software upgrade on our new thermostat. We could not be happier with our new system.
Excellent service!!! Jordan did an amazing job troubleshooting and repairing my furnace. He was timely, professional, and courteous. All of my questions were answered and he took the time to listen to and address all concerns. Very pleased.
Fast response, EXCELLENT service and very affordable pricing 100% recommend!
Jordan came and got our furnace up and running in no time! Professional and knowledgeable. We just started using these guys at the property management company I work for too. Definitely recommend!
Such an awesome team! The promise of great service is easy to get- actually achieving great service - hard to come by these days. FOUND IT! We will be toasty warm this winter THANKS MINUTE MAN TEAM!
Amazing customer service, great to work with! No hidden fees! And very very helpful! Thank you for installing my range hood and gas line!! 🥰🥰🥰
Excellent experience with Minuteman! So happy with my new system. Ultimate professionals. Don’t hesitate!
Very prompt service, extremely knowledgeable staff and courteous interaction.
The employees showed up earlier than scheduled and got right to work. Everything is working wonderfully and they explained everything so I wasn't lost on using new equipment. Definitely would use again. Top recommendations for them. Thanks to all
These guys are great! They respond quickly and are professional. Travis and Jordan were very friendly and informative helping us fix both a blocked drain for the hvac and a gas leak. I would definitely recommend them!
The full experience was exceptional from the beginning starting with them coming out to do an inspection on the furnace for us. They were honest with me letting me know that I could get a little more life out of it but that honesty sold me which led us to an install today. I could not be happier and say enough of how wonderful Minute Man Service is to deal with. Thanks to everyone who was involved!
Had furnace serviced, plus Jordan repaired a gas stove in our basement, one that probably hadn't been running for some time. That took a lot of work, as it had a few problems, thus the reason it hadn't been used in quite a while. Jordan kept us informed as to his schedule and what was needed to get everything up and running. Thanks Jordan!
The men showed up on time and were very courteous. Went straight to work and had the problem fixed in 20 minutes. I was very happy with their work.
Jordan was super friendly and efficient! He did great work and explained everything. Would definitely recommend! We are so thankful for Minute Man services to have found a replacement coil for the AC so we didn’t have to buy a whole new unit yet. Trevor came out quickly after we called asking for a second opinion. He was able to find the leak and helped map out the options we had. He was super friendly and very knowledgeable. I never felt pressure with choosing what option we were given to fix the unit. I was also impress with Jasmine in the office.
Jordan, Matt and Trevor, were great. They were courteous and very professional. They completed needed ducting repair and installed a safety switch. We highly recommend MinuteMan for any HVAC service.
Big shout out to Minuteman Service for installing my new HVAC / heat pump. They were very professional, on time, answered all my questions, and best of all did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend them for any of your heating and cooling needs.
Matt and Matt#2 Aaron and Trevor all did awesome job. They are some real "cool" guys
Minute Man Service installed some mini air conditioning and heating units for us in our addition. They were friendly and professional and performed the work quickly. They also made sure they protected our new carpet from getting dirty which I really appreciate. I would totally recommend them!
Very professional and amazing clean installation, Great job guys, I highly recommend Minueman services to all
Jordan was fabulous! Explained what was going on, fixed the problem with a smile and was just very helpful. Strongly recommend Minuteman Services and I hope your lucky to get Jordan (though I'm sure all the workers are equally as great). Today, Matt and Trevor came out and put in a new filter system for me and they were fabulous! Very nice guys and great work done!
Jordan was super easy to deal with! Listened well to my concerns and was super helpful! Great customer service and quick service as well!
These guys are awesome!! I was having an issue after hours on a Friday evening, and couldn't get anyone out til Monday, but we talked on the phone, and I was able to fix my problem with some " coaching" over the phone. I kept my appointment for Monday, and I was more than pleased with their tech!! He is awesome, and now I am on a bi-annual service plan!! thank you Minuteman
Great experience from start to finish, from initial phone call scheduled for Tuesday, received call back with opening end of day Friday. Travis was great, very familiar with our unit, diagnosed and fixed the problem quickly. I highly recommend them!
I had a mini split heating and a/c system installed. Travis, Trenton and Alisa were great! The system was installed, tested and running in just a day and a half. They were neat and careful and answered any questions I had. I would recommend them highly!
Jordan was professional. He was able to get to our AC unit quickly and get it back up and running and we will definitely be using him in the future with our HVAC maintenance and repair needs.
I was able to get a solid hvac system for a great price. They also worked hard and got me scheduled quickly. Jordan made sure everything was perfect on the installation.
Absolutely amazing service. Travis did a great job in fixing our water heater. Went above and beyond. Great communication
If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Jordan was awesome and had the problem diagnosed and fixed ASAP. we will call them every time for HVAC questions and repairs. Vince Wray
Jordan did an amazing job. I got my gas line in record time, in my opinion, with very little sheet rock disturbance. He cleaned up as appropriate. I now have a fully functioning gas cooktop thanks to Jordan. 👍 Side note, Travis fixed a minor thermostat wiring issue, my bad, during consultation for the gas line, free of charge. Win win for me.
Such great customer support and service! Travis did an excellent job with the yearly maintenance of my heater. He found an issue the home inspector missed when I purchased this place and gave me several options on moving forward. Will continue to use this company for yearly maintenance and the new install of heat and air.
Dual fuel heat pump installation done on time. I recommend this company for their professional work.
MinuteMan is always my go to for HVAC and Electrical work. We got a new AC unit and also moved it from beside our back porch to the side of the house. We got 4 bids to do this work. Only MinuteMan was honest about doing this work. We only have a one stage HVAC system. The other quotes ranged from $14,000 to $16,000. They were insistent that I needed two stage or variable stage units. MinuteMan noted that since our system was a single stage system, unless we were also going to replace our entire HVAC system, those other AC units would just run single stage anyways and thus be a complete waste of money. They also were much more knowledgeable about the code and requirements for running the new systems and avoided having to cut into walls and do very expensive work. I validated everything that they said and it was all legit. The AC system that we got was HALF the price of those other systems. The installation was professional and the crew was amazing. The bidding and communication was also amazing. We also had an in-wall dog door that I needed to install and their electrician installed it for us for a very minimal fee and did an amazing job! This wasn't part of the bid or work, they just did it while they were here and helped me out a TON! You really can't go wrong with MinuteMan. EDIT: Thank you to Jordan, Trevor, Matt, Shane, and Jace!
1st time commercial business customer. Called in after my business AC unit went down. Immediately had Jarod pick up the phone, scheduled me in immediately. Its Friday and had me scheduled Monday morning. Great on diagnostic service rate charge. I had called multiple highly rated HVAC companies previously, no one picked up or responded to my service call request, and lost opportunity to help. Give the little guys a chance, and they come through. Minuteman picked up and won my business, and quickly got me on the schedule. Minuteman will be my call moving forward for any needs. Thank you Jarod, and Tyson my service tech coming out quickly Monday to fix me up.
Travis did a great job fixing our leak with our HVAC. He was helpful in in telling me what he did to fix the issue, step by step.
If needed I would call them again without hesitation. Quick, professional and thorough. They fixed my issues and my house is cool again!! Thank you!
They were quick and professional. Pricing was very reasonable and work was done very well.
Excellent service, replied to texts on a weekend night with advice and a few things to try before coming out and fixing the issue!
Very Professional. Excellent service from beginning to end. Definitely the guys to see for HVAC and Electrical. Very satisfied with our Mini Split Heat pump A/C system.
Shoutout to Minuteman Services today for the quick response for my electrical problem. Ted arrived within an hour of me calling and completed the job of repairing an outlet that was giving shocks when touched. …. not good!! Also replaced another switch that was bad and checked another for me!! Great attention to detail and the repair cost was very reasonable! Thank you Ted and Minuteman Services. I will certainly be using them again in the future!!!
These guys are awesome top notch installation very professional I will never use anyone else
Great job on the installation. Electricial guys and the Hvac. Looks great too.
Thanks Shayne for your fast, friendly service. Shayne identified my electrical problem, discussed options and fix the issue in record time! I appreciate your help!
Jordan, Trevor and Jarrod were really helpful installing my mini split
I recently had a heat pump system installed by Jordan and Dylan with Minuteman, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. They took the time to explain all of my options, answered all of my questions thoroughly, and provided a clear and fair estimate. The installation process itself was quick, clean, and affordable. The technicians arrived on time, worked diligently, and treated my home with respect. Now that the heat pump is up and running, I’m already noticing a difference in comfort and energy efficiency. It’s quiet, effective, and exactly what I needed. I would absolutely recommend Minuteman to anyone looking to have a heatpump installed.
Travis and his electrician were prompt, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. They found the problem in my home air conditioner, had the replacement part in their truck and after servicing and total system check I have a functioning system again. The price for parts & labor was less than I expected. I only wish I was able to give them a higher rating than 5. JOB WELL DONE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, the Taylor Family.
Travis called before he went and was able to repair unit right there and was very knowledgeable & friendly
I can’t say enough about the way you guys came out really quick and did a great job! Five stars for sure! Thank you! I will be passing along to everyone I know!
Travis from Minute Man took care of our air conditioning problems today. We appreciated his patience in explaining different options and helping us find a good resolution. We will continue to call on them for any of our HVAC needs. I would highly recommend Minute Man and Travis to anybody with HVAC concerns.
These guys were awesome . We had another company come out and work on AC twice with no permanent repair. Minuteman was out to check out our system and had located the issue within an hour. They were fair and honest to deal with. We won’t call anyone else in the future .
Travis was fantastic. He fixed our problem quickly and was very fair with his price. We will most definitely call Minute Man again for help when we need it!
These guys are amazing to work with and helped get me setup with a fantastic AC system after I completely failed to DIY the installation myself. They replaced all my faulty equipment and worked very quickly to get us up and running. I cannot recommend these guys enough!!
Great company from the first call to the completion of installation of new fujitsu split level heating and air unit. Jordan & Dillon were absolutely the best! It's so nice to find honest & knowledgeable people!
We have used Minuteman several times now and every time they have been wonderful to work with both for big major things and for regular maintenance
Always have great service with Minuteman. They are thorough and do a great job. Excellent communication and install. Highly recommend for HVAC, mini splits and chimney service.
Ted did an awesome job taking care of my family by installing a new water heater electric power breaker in order for my family to have hot water. Very professional, fast response and clean work! I highly recommend Minuteman Services LLC. for all your HVAC and electrical needs.
Have dealt with Minuteman several times over the course of a few years. They did three new installs on cabins in Island Park. One of the units had issues through no fault of theirs. However they made several trips up to fix it and finally just installed a new unit at no cost to me. Jared always takes my calls and answers my questions. Great young business with a bright future.
I needed to have my AC system cleaned and serviced 2 years after the Minutemen guys installed it. They also installed a new furnace at that time. They were able to come out quickly and were very friendly and efficient. I was surprised that they came out about 2 days after I called them rather than the week or more I usually have to wait for most service companies. I was impressed with these guys when they installed my system as well as for this service call. I highly recommend them to anyone for furnace and AC installation or service and repair.
Excellent service. I have used them multiple times for electrical and heating needs, and have been able to have someone at our house within a few days, if not same day. Will use again.
They did good work at a very competitive price. Travis‘s communication was great throughout the whole process
These guys go work to solve problems, not just get jobs done. They were great and super transparent about pricing and all the work they were doing. Highly recomend! The owner came himself when we had some hiccups and made sure we were taken care of.
Prompt and professional service. Travis was great at explaining the product and timely on bid and scheduling. Jordan and Dylan were awesome at installation. Highly recommend.
I really appreciate your guy coming here to take care of my furnace. He was kind, helpful, and took care of the problem in a short amount of time. I would recommend your services to any. Thank you so much!
We had to replace an outdated heating system. Jordan, Travis and Dillion were awesome. Great customer service. They also helped us get a rebate through our power company. Highly recommended.
Competent. Priced fairly. Professional. Can't say enough good about these guys.

Most Common Outdoor Lighting Questions
Outdoor lighting installation improves safety, visibility, and property value. It helps protect your home and makes outdoor spaces more usable at night. Minuteman Services provides expert installation that keeps your system safe and reliable.
Outdoor security lighting should focus on wide coverage, reliable motion detection, and long-lasting performance. Many homeowners use LED floodlights or motion-activated fixtures to cover driveways, entrances, and dark corners. These lights deter intruders and help you see your property clearly at night. LED technology is more energy efficient than older bulbs and offers consistent brightness. Motion sensors save energy by activating only when needed. Solar-powered fixtures are an option, but wired systems offer more reliable operation. Our electricians install only secure, code-compliant systems built for Idaho Falls weather.
Minuteman Services recommends outdoor lighting options based on your home’s layout and safety needs. We walk the perimeter and note vulnerable areas like detached garages, side gates, or backyards. Our team selects fixtures with the right brightness, beam angle, and weather resistance. Some customers choose dusk-to-dawn lights to ensure visibility at all times. Others prefer smart controls that link to mobile apps. We review all your options and explain what will work best for your goals. Our goal is to make your home safer without adding hassle to your daily routine.
We always verify your panel capacity and current outdoor circuits before adding lighting. Some homes require new outdoor-rated wiring or a transformer for low-voltage systems. Our team handles the full process, from planning to final inspection. We also teach you how to use timers, photocells, or smart switches if included in your setup. Every step is designed for safety, reliability, and long-term performance. We make sure you know how to get the most out of your new outdoor lighting system. When we leave, your lighting is ready to use with no guesswork.
Low-voltage lighting is safer and easier to install. Line-voltage lighting is stronger and more permanent. The best option depends on your outdoor lighting goals. Low-voltage systems use a transformer to reduce the power to each light. This makes them ideal for walkways, gardens, and decks. They are safer around pets and kids. Line-voltage lights use full 120-volt power and are common for driveways and commercial-grade lighting.
Minuteman Services recommends a full property evaluation before making a choice. Our electricians measure the lighting zones, consider how you use the space, and suggest the most effective system. Low-voltage is best for adjustable, expandable landscape lighting. Line-voltage systems are more durable and built for larger areas. We also consider the cost of wiring, installation, and long-term power usage. Many of our clients mix both types to balance performance and energy savings.
We install both systems and confirm that your electrical setup can support the project. Low-voltage lights need a properly sized transformer. Line-voltage lights require weatherproof conduit, junction boxes, and GFCI protection. Our team handles all permitting and inspection requirements. We make sure the final installation meets electrical code and is built to last. You get a complete lighting solution with long-term reliability and professional workmanship.
Yes, many outdoor lighting systems can be controlled remotely. Smart switches, timers, and sensors let you manage lighting from your phone or schedule it automatically. This reduces wasted energy and gives you more control over your home. Remote control systems also add security by creating the appearance of activity. Many systems use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth and work with mobile apps. Others integrate with home automation platforms for even more control.
Minuteman Services installs smart outdoor lighting setups for homeowners who want flexibility. We show you how to use scheduling tools, manual overrides, and motion sensors. Some customers use different settings for weekdays and weekends. Others link their lighting to other smart devices. We help you customize everything during installation. You choose what turns on, when it turns on, and how long it stays lit.
We make sure your smart lighting system is secure and reliable. Our electricians confirm that your Wi-Fi signal is strong enough for stable performance. We test each feature and explain how to use the mobile app. For clients who prefer simplicity, we offer digital timers or dusk-to-dawn sensors as alternatives. Each system is customized to your habits, routine, and lifestyle. You get convenient control that works the way you want it to.
Yes, Minuteman Services offers emergency electrical repair, including outdoor lighting issues. Problems with outdoor lights can impact security, visibility, and safety. When your lights stop working, flicker, or trip breakers, our team is ready to respond. We bring tools and parts to diagnose issues on the spot. Our electricians look for wiring faults, faulty transformers, and moisture damage. We work to restore lighting quickly and safely with minimal disruption.
Outdoor lighting failures can be caused by tripped circuits, bad weather, or age. Motion sensors sometimes fail, bulbs burn out, and wiring can corrode underground. Our team checks each part of the system and replaces damaged parts with code-compliant materials. We also test for proper grounding and safe connections. Our repairs aim to restore full lighting coverage and prevent future issues. We do not use temporary fixes. Every repair is made to last.
Minuteman Services provides emergency response for all electrical systems, including lighting. We are trained to troubleshoot, repair, and upgrade lighting in a single visit. If your system is outdated, we may recommend new fixtures or smart controls. Our team documents all findings and provides a clear path forward. When the work is complete, we test the entire system for safety and performance. You get peace of mind knowing your outdoor lighting is back up and running.
Choosing the right outdoor lighting starts with understanding your property layout, lighting goals, and overall design preferences. Homeowners should consider key areas such as walkways, driveways, porches, decks, and patios. Each area has different lighting needs, from safety-focused pathway lighting to decorative accent lights. At Minuteman Services, our licensed electricians walk through your space and discuss what fixtures work best based on function and style. We explain the pros and cons of LED, low voltage, motion-activated, and solar-powered options. We also consider lighting temperature, brightness levels, and energy savings when helping you make decisions. Proper placement and coverage are essential for a balanced look that provides safety without glare or dark spots.
Many customers focus only on the brightness of the light, but our team takes it a step further. We factor in the color temperature to enhance curb visibility while keeping the ambiance warm and inviting. Cool white lights may be best for security, while soft white can highlight landscaping or entertainment spaces. Fixture style and durability are also critical. Our electricians help you select weather-resistant, corrosion-proof models built for Idaho Falls’ cold winters and hot summers. We also coordinate the layout to avoid light pollution and direct the beams precisely where needed. This custom approach ensures lasting performance and visual appeal.
Our outdoor lighting installation includes a detailed consultation, professional wiring, secure mounting, and thorough testing. We prioritize code compliance and ensure your entire system is safe and built to last. Minuteman Services will help you build a lighting plan that protects your property, adds visual appeal, and meets your daily use. We also offer add-ons like timers, dimmers, and app-controlled smart lighting. From concept to completion, our electricians manage every detail to deliver a finished result that adds beauty and value to your home. Call our team to schedule a personalized assessment of your outdoor lighting needs.
Yes, timers and smart lighting controls can be added to nearly all outdoor lighting systems. These upgrades give you full control over your lighting schedule and power usage. At Minuteman Services, we install programmable timers, dusk-to-dawn sensors, and Wi-Fi-enabled smart switches. These systems allow you to set automatic on-off times or adjust lighting from your smartphone or voice assistant. Adding smart controls increases energy efficiency, extends bulb life, and provides added security while you’re away. Our electricians recommend these systems for busy homeowners who want hands-off lighting that works on a schedule. We help you choose devices compatible with your existing smart home systems.
Smart lighting controls are ideal for security purposes. Timers and motion sensors create the appearance of occupancy, which helps deter trespassers or theft. We can install systems that integrate with your home’s cameras, alarm systems, or smart locks. Some models let you change brightness levels remotely, activate lighting zones, or receive alerts about outages or malfunctions. Our team explains how to manage these features and tests each connection to ensure reliable performance. With our support, you’ll gain both convenience and peace of mind. Many Idaho Falls homeowners see reduced electric bills after upgrading to smart lighting.
Installation of timers and smart controls requires safe electrical connections and secure housing. Our electricians install all components to meet local code and environmental standards. We weatherproof enclosures and use tested wiring methods that prevent shorts and system failures. From basic timers to advanced smart hubs, Minuteman Services ensures your outdoor lighting operates efficiently and safely. Our team also provides support for troubleshooting, upgrades, or app setup. Ask about integrating smart lighting with your outdoor setup during your installation appointment.
Yes, professionally installed outdoor lighting improves home security by increasing visibility and discouraging unwanted activity. Well-lit entry points, driveways, and yard areas leave fewer places for intruders to hide. Our electricians install motion-activated floodlights, path lights, and wall-mounted fixtures to cover blind spots and improve nighttime visibility. Motion sensors turn on the lights when movement is detected, alerting homeowners and making it harder for trespassers to go unnoticed. We tailor each system to your layout and security needs. Minuteman Services designs lighting that functions as both a visual deterrent and a safety measure for your home and family.
Outdoor lighting also increases safety for residents and guests. Dark walkways, steps, and driveways pose a tripping hazard, especially in the winter. We install pathway lighting and overhead fixtures that eliminate these risks and allow for safer movement after sunset. These upgrades are especially helpful for households with children, pets, or older family members. Our team evaluates your home’s exterior and recommends lighting coverage that reduces accidents while enhancing property visibility. We also offer lighting that blends with your home’s design while maintaining strong illumination. Security lighting does not need to be harsh to be effective.
Our licensed electricians use durable, weather-rated fixtures that function properly in all seasons. We use sealed wiring connections, tamper-resistant mounts, and lighting systems designed for long-term outdoor use. The result is a clean, professional look with dependable performance year-round. Customers can also add timers, motion detection, or remote controls for added convenience. At Minuteman Services, we build lighting systems that protect your home and give you more control over your outdoor space. Security lighting is one of the most requested upgrades by homeowners preparing for vacation or recent neighborhood crime. Our team makes the process fast and stress free.
Outdoor lighting systems require routine maintenance to stay safe, efficient, and visually appealing. While many fixtures are built for long-term outdoor use, weather exposure, seasonal debris, and electrical wear can still impact performance. At Minuteman Services, our electricians recommend periodic inspections to check for signs of corrosion, loose wiring, burnt-out bulbs, or water intrusion. We help homeowners create a maintenance schedule that matches the type of lighting and installation layout. Common upkeep tasks include cleaning lenses, adjusting fixture angles, and replacing worn or damaged components. Preventive maintenance extends the life of your system and helps avoid sudden outages. Our team offers inspection and tune-up services to keep everything running smoothly.
Different lighting systems have different maintenance needs. LED fixtures last longer than halogen or incandescent options but still benefit from occasional checks. Smart lighting and timer systems may require software updates or battery replacements to function properly. Our electricians provide full system diagnostics and verify that all wiring remains secure and grounded. For systems with motion sensors or photocells, we test each device to confirm it responds correctly to light levels or movement. If your landscape shifts over time due to plant growth or hardscape changes, our team can reposition fixtures to maintain coverage. Regular maintenance also ensures your system stays in compliance with safety codes.
Minuteman Services offers optional service plans that include scheduled outdoor lighting maintenance. These visits allow us to catch problems early, saving you time and preventing unexpected failures. We recommend seasonal checks in spring and fall, especially after storms or snow. During each visit, we clean and inspect fixtures, check transformer settings, and confirm that your controls are working. If issues are found, our team provides fast, affordable repairs. This proactive approach keeps your lighting effective year-round and reduces the chance of larger electrical issues. Reliable lighting enhances both your property’s appearance and its overall security. Our electricians make outdoor lighting maintenance simple and dependable.
