Testimonials

On 6/5/2026 Robert Enlow had this to say:
I highly recommend Extreme Lighting owned and operated by Pat Riley. After discussing my camper and house lighting upgrades, Pat suggested I start with my camper to fully understand and see how his system could give me a permanent and modern look while camping. I absolutely love the results. Using the app, there are endless lighting schemes that can be used. So, being happy with Pat’s lighting products, I had him install on my house. I now have lights that also provide security as well as holiday decor lighting. No more climbing on roof to hang Christmas lights. Love the lighting possibilities which are endless. If considering home or recreational lighting, I highly recommend you contact Pat Riley with Extreme Lighting.

On 6/3/2026 Jim Turmo had this to say:
Pat and team worked wonders on a tight timeline and budget to meet my needs on a residential landscape lighting project in Belvidere. They performed the work as agreed, arrived and finished as promised, left the job site clean each day, did a great job professionally installing everything and tested everything before finishing. I plan on using Extreme Lighting again in the near future! Highly recommend.

On 5/15/2026 Mike Retired had this to say:
