We built a sizable custom home and utilized Idlewood 100% for all electrical supplies, which included switches, outlets, recessed LED lighting, and all decorative lighting fixtures. Idlewood was one of our favorite suppliers who were not just fair with pricing but provided us one of the highest levels of customer service.
We were assigned two leads who worked with us throughout the build from start to finish thus we felt we had focused representation instead of various contact / go-to’s. Josh Hopkins was our lead for all rough lighting components, and Kathy Mourlot was our lead for all decorative lighting fixtures. These two leads also worked in tandem so no matter the lighting we felt it was managed in the totality of our home completeness.
With a great attitude, professionalism, and teamwork we recognized their knowledge and years of experience and quality customer service. Every company is reflected by their employee’s and Idlewood should be recognized as a 5* in the industry. THANK YOU Idlewood as we’d like to recognize you as we’ve been through many suppliers / contractors throughout our build and there are only a few we’d give the 5* in the areas of professionalism and this high of a level of...

Read moreI needed lighting for my home remodel and I can't say enough good things about this women owned family business. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel welcome which doesn't happen at many retail stores these days.
The selection at Idlewood is impressive - they have everything or they can order it. I had different budgets in different areas and it was no problem. What really sets them apart is their expert knowledge. I was very confused on LED and the different options. They were able to show me pieces on the floor and help explain what would be best based on the different rooms.
Idlewood offers personalized attention that made the selection process enjoyable rather than overwhelming. They patiently answered all of my many questions and offered practical suggestions that I hadn't even considered. I didn't know I needed dimmers and wasn't considering a home system. We decided on Lutron Caseta.
