Very nice and polite. Respectful and helpful.

“I would give Coast Lighting 10 stars if I could. It’s always nice to physically go into a showroom to show clients what their home will look like with certain lighting. Everyone in the store is polite, helpful, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to be around. A one-stop shop for contractors, designers, and customers!”

“I had a major remodeling project which took about a year. I bought all my lighting fixtures and switches from Coast lighting. Greg, the owner, is very knowledgeable, helpful and flexible in doing business. Their store staff are professional, especially Emann who was very responsive and helpful .Their warehouse staff are pleasant and cooperative, especially Litto who is very friendly and knows where everything is. I will do business with them again and strongly recommend them.”
Mamali Z.
"My wife and I have been buying our home lighting fixtures from Greg at Coast Lighting for over 10 years. He and the team are just terrific. Their advice and diligence in getting us the best solutions in multiple environments means that when we now travel from the Midwest back to California, and always buy at Coast Lighting.
When we sold our home in Los Gatos, the realtor said, "Normally, I ask clients to upgrade their light fixtures in order to sell the house for top dollar. In your case, the lighting is amazing! Don't change anything."
