The store staff was welcoming, and it was especially meaningful to reconnect with one of my former students who now works there—such a wonderful reflection of the strong community values this business has.
My salesman was knowledgeable, patient, and helpful, and the installer was punctual, professional and did excellent work.
Lite Brite is clearly a well established business that takes pride in both their products and their customers. I highly recommend them.
I reached out to Light Brite to ask about an installation issue. They were still willing to give me helpful advice and point me toward reputable installers. Many thanks to Jim and the Light Brite team!
