Call ahead! Nice, they need to have a bigger inventory because when we went there they had a shortage and had to wait some time. But overall good

Wow! I have been working with Marissa to select lighting for a home we purchased and am very impressed. (Might I add, that is not easy to do.) I originally had no idea what I was looking for or what was involved in selecting so many pieces. I shared a bit about my style and Marissa made fantastic recommendations and pointed me in the right direction. The store works with a variety of companies from inexpensive to luxury and she was always conscious of my budget. Of all the projects I am managing right now, I feel most confident about these items. Thank you!!

I've been a Crest customer for many, many years, and they consistently impress me with their quality, selection, and service. I stopped in last week to finally update some light fixtures that were long overdue. I had pre-selected several options, and when I showed them to Kira, she provided just the right amount of helpful guidance and expertise to make my decision easy. Super friendly too. I had a few outstanding questions about the fixture details and left the store to take care of some other errands. Well before the end of the day Kira had gotten back to me with all the answers I needed

I highly recommend this store! The service was unbelievably awesome, with a special shout out to Marissa. My husband and I went in for advice on ideas for lighting our rooftop deck. Marissa consulted with her colleagues, researched options, and even corresponded via email for over two weeks as we figured it all out. We will use them for all our lighting needs.
