What Coto de Caza Residents Say About Vision’s Work
15+ years of creating stunning landscape lighting installations
EXCELLENT Based on 92 reviews Posted on Google Christine LobergTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just had our outdoor lighting serviced by Vision Outdoor Lighting. Juan was great! He was very responsive on email and very reasonably priced. We get our lights serviced yearly and will definitely use him again!Posted on Google Geoffrey KrukiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Juan was amazing from start to finish! He explained the scope of work very throughly and answered all questions we had. The project turned out better than we could have ever expected. Will definitely be using them in the future!Posted on Google Alex BergTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently attempted a fairly large landscape lighting project on my own. After putting in a lot of time and effort, I reached the finish line only to discover that none of the lights were working. I was frustrated, but more importantly, I was concerned that a lighting company might take advantage of the fact that I had tried to do it myself and charge me a significant amount of money to diagnose and fix what could have been a simple issue. Thankfully, that was not my experience at all with Vision Outdoor Lighting. Juan was incredibly responsive from the start and even provided a realistic price range over the phone before coming out, ensuring I was comfortable with the potential cost. When he arrived, he was complimentary of the work I had done and never once made me feel foolish for tackling the project myself. As it turned out, there was only one minor issue causing the entire system not to work. Juan quickly identified the problem and had everything up and running in under an hour. True to his word, the final cost fell right in the middle of the price range he had quoted beforehand. It's rare to find someone who combines technical expertise, honesty, professionalism, and great customer service so well. Juan not only solved my problem efficiently, but he also treated me with respect throughout the process. I will absolutely be using Vision Outdoor Lighting again in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality work and a trustworthy company.Posted on Google Kim PoeseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Juan came out and immediately identified the problem with our outdoor landscape lighting and fixed the problem. He was very efficient and professional. I will use him again in the future!Posted on Google Shana SpitzerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Juan did a superb job hanging my bistro lights outside. He was professional, efficient and reasonably priced. I would definitely call him again for any of my exterior lighting needs.Posted on Google Sergio SanchezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dear Juan, I wanted to personally thank you for the outstanding job you did installing our lights. We are extremely happy with the way everything turned out. Your professionalism, attention to detail, and craftsmanship truly showed throughout the entire project. The lighting looks absolutely amazing and has completely transformed the space. We also appreciate the high-quality, state-of-the-art products and materials you used. It is clear that you take pride in your work and strive to provide the very best for your customers. Thank you again for all of your hard work and dedication. We could not be more pleased with the final result and would gladly recommend you to anyone looking for excellent lighting installation work.Posted on Google Laurie LittleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Took me some time to write a review, but I can't say enough about Vision Outdoor Lighting! Juan did a great job fixing what another company did NOT get right. We had an old system with issues and Juan was both knowledgeable and professional in both explaining the issues and fixing them. He got right to work and now our outdoor lighting is working well. I highly recommend Vision Outdoor Lighting for your low voltage needs!Posted on Google JP ParkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Juan was very punctual and professional. Highly recommend Juan.Posted on Google Nick RezaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had such a good time booking with Juan and getting all the details laid out. He is really professional and the entire company comes across as cohesive and caring. I highly recommend working with them as you prepare for a new chapter in your life.Posted on Google reegoxgeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Juan is one of the best landscape lighting designers. We had talked to 3 different companies and it was apparent Juan and his team were who we wanted to work with. Very intentional with his craftsmanship and you can tell that he has studied and continues to work at being a true businessman and lighting designer. We are very happy with the results of the spot lighting and down lighting in our backyard. We have sent him over as a referral to our neighbors here in Orange County as well that have loved the results. You will be happy you went with this company and after getting three bids ourself… it was easily the best decision! Thank you, Juan and Vision Outdoor Lighting.

At Vision Outdoor Lighting, the owner personally handles every project from the first conversation to the final walkthrough. One point of contact. One person responsible for every fixture, every wire, every angle. Direct access for service, adjustments, or expansions years later.
Every landscape lighting design is engineered for your specific Coto de Caza property. Architecture, lot topography, canyon views, equestrian facilities, and how your family uses outdoor space at night all factor into the plan. No guesswork. No mismatched fixtures.
Complete system documentation is provided with every project, from architectural lighting Coto de Caza estates require to full system wiring maps. You always know what you have, how it works, and who to call.
Coto de Caza spans over 5,000 acres of canyon country behind 24-hour guard gates, with roughly 4,000 homes that range from family-friendly cul-de-sacs to multi-acre equestrian estates. Los Ranchos Estates is the community within the community: 75 custom homes on 355 private acres with barns and trail access. The Village is the original Coto neighborhood with winding roads and rustic canyon character. Grand Coto Estates, Forest, and Canyon Estates offer premium custom homes behind private gates. Weatherly, Glenmere, Atherton, and Hillsboro bring family living with access to two championship golf courses and the Golf and Racquet Club. Architecture leans Mediterranean, Spanish, and French Country, and each property requires a landscape lighting company experienced with estate-scale systems.
Nestled between Rancho Santa Margarita and Mission Viejo, canyon heat and year-round UV demand durable fixtures. Commercial-grade solid brass ensures 20+ year performance from the equestrian estates to the golf course homes.
