Crews travel. Multi-site rollouts across the country have been the core of the business since the original K-Mart contract in 1982.

Downtime-aware scheduling

Phasing, off-shift, and weekend work planned around production cycles, academic calendars, and maintenance shutdowns.

In their words

What clients say.

NLMS responded to an RFP online to quote new lighting for our county government parking garage and were awarded the bid. Their crews were responsive, professional, and completed our project ahead of schedule.

Scott G.

We called NLMS to gather information about changing to new LED lighting in our warehouse. We not only received a great proposal, but they also provided us with an energy rebate report showing us how we can save on our monthly energy bills.

Jeremy K.

Worked with Sandy and NLMS on an install and they are a fantastic company to work with. Great prices, great service and great people.

Cruz M.

They are the best lighting contractor in Jeffersontown. They did a sports lighting project for me — exceptional and great services. The staff is highly professional.
