"We had our backyard done last fall and the whole street noticed. Three neighbors asked us who did it within the first week. BrightNest nailed the design on the first try."

Margaret Harrison · Wellesley, MA
Response from BrightNest

Margaret, thank you so much, that genuinely means a lot. Wellesley has some incredible properties and yours was a fun one to design for. Hope you are still enjoying it. - Zaraq, BrightNest

★★★★★

"They measured our roofline in October and had everything installed the week after Thanksgiving. Every bulb cut to fit exactly. The house looked perfect all season long."

James Foley · Barrington, RI
★★★★★

"One of the spotlights was aimed slightly off after install. I sent a photo, and Zaraq was back out within 48 hours to fix it at no charge. That is how you run a business."

Catherine Donovan · Hingham, MA
★★★★

"Had to wait about three weeks to get on the schedule which was longer than I expected. Once they showed up the whole job was done in a day and it looks great. Just go in knowing there may be a wait."

Mike Ferrante · Duxbury, MA
Response from BrightNest

Hi Mike, that is fair. We were running full heading into fall and the wait was longer than we like. I left a voicemail after install to check in but did not connect. Glad the result was worth it and we have since added more availability. - Zaraq, BrightNest

★★★★★

"First year I have not climbed a single ladder in December. They install, fix anything that goes out, and take it all down in January. Exactly what they promised and then some."

Robert Andrews · Cohasset, MA
★★★★★

"The cherry tree in our front yard looks absolutely stunning at night now. We sit on the porch every evening just looking at it. Worth every penny."

Ellen Sullivan · Concord, MA
Response from BrightNest

Ellen, that tree was a great one to work with, the canopy really holds the light beautifully. Glad you are getting to enjoy it every evening. That is exactly what this is supposed to feel like. - Zaraq, BrightNest

★★★★★

"One string of lights on the garage went out mid-December. I called and they were back the next day to fix it. During the holidays. That kind of service is rare."

William Trainor · Duxbury, MA
★★★★

"Work is solid and the lighting looks good. My only gripe is that one of the crew left a small section of my lawn a little torn up where they buried a wire near the walkway. Not a huge deal but I noticed."

Kevin Shaughnessy · Hanover, MA
Response from BrightNest

Hi Kevin, I am sorry about that. We take care with lawn cleanup but clearly missed a spot on your job. I called the day after install to do a walkthrough and offer to fix anything but did not connect. That area should fill in on its own but if it has not, reach out and we will come back out. - Zaraq, BrightNest

★★★★★

"Clean, professional, on time. Zaraq and the team buried every wire out of sight and cleaned up after themselves. My yard looked better than before they arrived."

Abigail Murphy · Needham, MA
★★★★★

"They wrapped the big oak in our front yard and strung lights along the roofline. The whole street slows down to look at our house in December now. Every single night."

Tom Bradley · Scituate, MA
★★★★★

"The design plan they sent me was better than I expected. Zaraq understood exactly what I was going for and the finished job matches it perfectly."

Grace Pearson · Milton, MA
★★★★★

"They store everything for us year to year. Same setup, same look, no digging through the garage in November. That alone makes it worth every cent."

Sam Lowe · Westwood, MA
★★★★★

"There was a small issue with one of the path lights shifting after a hard rain. They came back, reset it, and added a little extra stake support. Did not charge me a cent."

Dorothy Collins · Marshfield, MA
★★★★★

"The lights they use are commercial grade. Way brighter and more even than anything from the hardware store. You can immediately tell the difference in quality."

Fran Kelly · Easton, MA
★★★★★

"Fast, friendly, and clearly know what they are doing. The lighting on our front walkway is exactly what I wanted. Guests love it when they come over at night."

Nathan Reynolds · Portsmouth, RI
★★★★★

"They do the install, maintain it all season, and take everything down in January. I never touched a ladder once. Best holiday decision we have made as homeowners."

Harriet Walsh · Dover, MA
★★★★★

"I called them on a Monday, had the design plan Tuesday, approved it Wednesday, and they installed Friday. One week from call to done. That is impressive."

Ed Gallagher · Pembroke, MA
★★★★★

"Initially the transformer kept tripping after heavy rain. I was a bit frustrated but Zaraq came out promptly, diagnosed it, and replaced the unit. No charge, no argument."

Beth Nolan · Norwell, MA
★★★★★

"Our house has a complicated roofline with multiple peaks. They measured every inch and the lights fit perfectly. Looks completely custom, not generic at all."

Arthur Vance · Bristol, RI
★★★★★

"Beautiful work on our colonial. The front of the house had zero curb appeal at night before. Now it looks like it belongs in a real estate listing photo every single night."

Julie Evans · Canton, MA
★★★★★

"The bulbs they use last the whole season without a single outage. Had them do the roofline and the front columns. Looked incredible from the street every single night."

Mike O'Brien · Walpole, MA
★★★★★

"They showed us a design photo before installing anything. We got to approve the look first. No other holiday lighting company even offered that option."

Evelyn Jennings · Hanover, MA
★★★★★

"All brass fixtures. I looked them up and they are exactly what they claim. Zaraq and the team at BrightNest do not cut corners on materials. You can tell the difference immediately."

Chris Quinn · Medfield, MA
★★★★★

"Three years running with BrightNest for holiday lights. Same crew, same quality, never a problem. They show up when they say they will and the work is always perfect."

Linda Ferreira · Stoughton, MA
★★★★★

"Lighting looks good overall but the install ran about two hours longer than they told me and the crew was still there past 7pm. Not the end of the world but I had plans. The end result is nice."

Dan Morrissey · Seekonk, MA
Response from BrightNest

Hi Dan, you are right and I apologize. We hit an unexpected issue with the transformer placement that added time to your job. I called the following morning to follow up and left a voicemail but never heard back. If there is anything we can do to make it right the offer is still open. - Zaraq, BrightNest

★★★★★

"Punctual, skilled, and honest. They talked me out of over-lighting two areas of the yard and the restraint made the whole design look much better. Trust their advice."

Steve Young · Raynham, MA
★★★★★

"Our neighbors had their holiday lights done by someone else. Ours looked completely different, more even, cleaner lines, better color. Everyone on the block noticed."

Gerry Tavares · Swansea, MA
★★★★★

"The crew was respectful of my garden beds. They were careful where they stepped and careful with the plants. I had zero damage to anything I was worried about."

Dan Higgins · Taunton, MA
★★★★★

"They fixed a section of Christmas lights that went dark on Christmas Eve without any fuss. That kind of response during the holidays is rare and really appreciated."

Karen Cabral · Attleboro, MA
Response from BrightNest

Karen, Christmas Eve is not the day you want a call like that but I am glad we could get out to you quickly. No one should spend that night staring at a dark section of lights. Thank you for trusting us. - Zaraq, BrightNest

★★★★★

"My wife picked the company. I did the walk-through at night after Zaraq and the team finished. I was genuinely impressed. The lighting on the chimney in particular looks excellent."

Walter Hughes · Bridgewater, MA
★★★★★

"My kids kept wanting to drive past our own house just to look at the Christmas lights. That tells you everything about how good the work was."

Diane Grant · Kingston, MA
★★★★★

"Very professional from first call to final walkthrough. Zaraq walked me through the design, explained each fixture placement, and let me make changes before they started. Excellent experience."

Brian Flynn · Plymouth, MA
★★★★★

"My stone wall has never looked better. The lighting brings out every texture in the rock. Guests always comment on it. Highly recommend for anyone with stonework on their property."

Linda Edwards · Middleborough, MA
Response from BrightNest

Linda, stone wall grazing is one of my favorite things to install, the texture that comes out at night is something you just cannot get with standard lighting. Really glad guests are noticing it too. - Zaraq, BrightNest

★★★★★

"The roofline lights are perfectly straight. No sagging, no gaps, no bulbs poking out at odd angles. Looks professional because it is professional. Night and day from the big box store look."

Clarence Daley · Wareham, MA
★★★★★

"We did roofline, columns, two trees, and a wreath over the garage. The whole package. It looked like something out of a catalog. Very happy with how it all came together."

Diane Costa · Marion, MA
★★★★★

"Very upfront about pricing. No surprises at the end. They quoted me, did the work, and the final bill matched exactly what they said. That is so refreshing with contractors."

Larry Brown · Mattapoisett, MA
★★★★★

"I did not realize how much a house could change just with lighting. I drove home after dark the first night and almost did not recognize my own house. In the best way possible."

Susan Allen · Dartmouth, MA
★★★★★

"I have done my own Christmas lights for 12 years. Never going back. The quality of what BrightNest puts up is in a completely different category than anything I could manage myself."

Paul Walsh · Fairhaven, MA
★★★★★

"Best home upgrade we have done in ten years. Better return than the kitchen refresh, honestly. The whole front of the house looks completely different now at night."

Nancy Medeiros · Acushnet, MA
★★★★★

"The bulbs they use are much warmer than what you find at the hardware store. Gives the whole front of the house a really classic, tasteful holiday look. Not cheap at all."
