Commercial LED Lighting Installation in Cumming, Georgia
LED lighting has completely transformed commercial energy efficiency. Compared to fluorescent, LED uses 40-60% less energy. Compared to metal halide or high-pressure sodium (common in warehouses and parking lots), LED uses 60-80% less energy. But the benefits go beyond energy savings. LED lights last 50,000 to 100,000 hours — meaning you might replace them once a decade instead of twice a year. They turn on instantly in any temperature, work perfectly with sensors and dimmers, contain no mercury (unlike fluorescent), and come in any color temperature from warm to daylight. The challenge is choosing the right LED products for your specific commercial application. Not all LEDs are created equal, and cheap LEDs from big-box stores will fail quickly in commercial use.
At Rob Ingram’s Freestyle Lighting and Electrical, we are LED lighting experts for commercial properties across Cumming and North Georgia. We supply and install only commercial-grade LED fixtures from trusted brands — no cheap residential fixtures, no Amazon specials. Our services include: LED retrofit of existing fixtures (bypassing ballasts), complete LED fixture replacement, high-bay LED for warehouses, LED troffers for drop ceilings, LED downlights for offices and retail, LED wraparounds for garages and workshops, and LED parking lot and pole lights. We also offer lighting audits, energy savings calculations, and assistance with utility rebates. Call us today to start saving money on your commercial lighting.
We’ve seen too many commercial property owners buy cheap LED bulbs online, install them themselves, and be disappointed when the lights start failing after six months. Commercial LED is different from residential. You need proper heat sinking, quality drivers, and correct color rendering (CRI). We source from established manufacturers with 5-10 year warranties. We also calculate your actual payback period — not marketing hype. If your current lighting is relatively new and efficient, we’ll tell you to wait. If switching to LED will save you money, we’ll show you the math. Plus, we handle all utility rebate paperwork so you get the maximum incentive for your upgrade.

A: Typical savings are 40-60% compared to fluorescent and 60-80% compared to metal halide or HPS. For a 5,000-square-foot office or retail space, annual savings often range from 1,000to1,000to3,000. We'll calculate your specific savings during a free audit.
A: Yes, but the fixture must be rewired to bypass the ballast (ballast bypass or Type B LED tubes). Direct drop-in tubes (Type A) work with existing ballasts, but you'll still have ballast maintenance issues. We recommend ballast bypass for long-term reliability.
A: 2700K-3000K (warm white) for restaurants, hotels, and high-end retail. 3500K-4000K (neutral white) for offices, medical spaces, and grocery stores. 4000K-5000K (cool white) for warehouses, garages, and task lighting. We'll help you choose.
A: Yes. We install LED parking lot lights on poles, including shoebox fixtures, floodlights, and area lights. LED parking lot lights typically pay for themselves in 1-2 years due to high energy consumption of old metal halide or HPS fixtures.
