Had a chandelier that needed rewiring. They looked up how much the chandelier was on line and because it was very expensive they figured the rewiring should be as well. They price was $1250. Went ahead and got another quote for $250. They then readjusted their price to $750. I went somewhere else.

I am delighted with mine recovered lampshade which looks brand new. The light switch, Lamps & Shades have been very efficient in responding to contact and queries and in doing work very promptly. I highly recommend them.

I had some excellent advice on phone before I made the order. The lamp arrived within 3 days of ordering and is lovely. I dithered about the fringe but it is just right. The shade is beautifully made. Thank you.

I just saw what you had to say but I do have the right place. You are incorrect. I double checked and It is the correct address andd telephone number. price went up every time they contacted me, Went on Sat to Pompano Beach at 11:45 and they were closed. They opened at 11:00. VERY expensive. I would not recommend them.

Raheem (not sure if I spelled it right?) was extremely helpful. He is definitely an asset to this business. I drove over an hour to get there and know that I will always bring my lighting needs to them as long as he is working there! Thank you!

This store offer a great variety of chandeliers and lighting fixtures. Everything from led lighting to outdoor lighting, commercial and residential lighting they can help you, fix your broken chandeliers and give you the best advise. Customer service is excellent, owned and operated by its owners Philip and Gisele.

Phillipe est superbe! I purchased two shades that didn't look quite right when I got home. I brought in the lampshades - when Phillipe, the owner, was there - to return or exchange. This time, I also brought one lamp. After trying possibilities, the original lampshade looked best - though it still wasn't quite right. Phillipe put on a one-inch extension - et viola! A beautifully proportioned lamp!

Amazing experience! I came to this store to repair my chandelier and they did a fantastic job. My chandelier looked much better after the repair than when I bought it. The service is fast, the price is very good. The French owners Philippe and Gisele are very professional and warm people. I recommend you to go there, they will take care of you carefully

Honestly, the owner is the sweetest guy in the world. Kind of flirtatious and not in a creepy way. But he can fix anything and is super fast and reasonable. Also sells some really beautiful vintage and antique fixtures. Support this wonderful shop.

I strongly recommend avoiding this place, the price quoted for a rewiring was astronomical compared to a second place I went and the owner was extremely rude to deal with from the second I walked into the location. The lampshades do not have any prices on them and he just makes up random prices when I inquired about the cost of a couple of them.

If there was an option to give zero stars I would do that. The owner of this place is so rude and unprofessional, I would never recommend his store to anyone. A few years back I had a similar experience with him, but thought it was an isolated incident. The wonderful salesman at another lighting store, who did not have the product I needed in stock, sent me to this store instead.

I bought the items, around $100, but they were the wrong size for what I needed. I called The Light Switch and explained the problem and the owner said bring them back on Monday. When I returned with the items as he said to, he refused to refund my money, even though I had additionally brought in a light fixture for him to repair. He then got belligerent, raised his voice and became even ruder.

I left without a refund taking my light fixture with me. With retail establishments begging for business after this last year of covid, nobody needs to do business with this horrid man.

I took a lamp that needed a socket replaced. I have had this lamp about 15 years the lamp had a prior scratch. When the lamp was returned to me it was now chipped which it was not before. I would have expected at least they would apologize and attempt to fix it but no. Whoever works there and broke it they have no integrity whatsoever. David.

Great experience! Phillipe repaired, rewired and added a dimmer switch to a vintage "tulip" lamp plus ordered me the correct light bulbs. Recently, I have 2 Karl Springer Torchere lamps that after many years needed re wiring. Phillipe picked up the floor lamps at my home, repaired and delivered within a reasonable time. Service with a smile!

The reviews are correct, the owner is an artist with tons of experience working with lamps and not just rewiring. I am ready to take in another antique lamp that needs total restoration. After reading reviews of other lamp repair shops closer to where I live, I know this is the right one for my needs.

What wonderful service and attention to detail. Family owned company with very efficient and friendly service. My lamp was actually completed early and looks beautiful. I've already recommended this place to a friend. Prices are fair and how cool that you have a place that can make your lamps look like new again? Happy that we have such a location left in Miami.

Great experience! I went in to get a switch fixed on a lamp I adore and could not bring myself to get rid of. The repair took 15 minutes and now it's as good as new. Very nice people (I think they were the owners) and very reasonably priced. I will definitely be back!

Great experience. I had a large water urn that had been converted into a lamp, but it had a bad socket and needed a new plug and wire coating. The guy diagnosed the problem immediately, and I was able to pick it up soon thereafter. Quick and easy, and friendly service. Very glad Miami has this nice local place.

What a wonderful family owned business! They custom made silk on silk lampshades for my 30 year old Waterford lamps which I could not find replacements anywhere. these lampshades look like the original Waterford! I am so happy and my bedside tables are incredible now! I definitely recommend this wonderful shop and wonderful people who work there! I am planning to take several of my crystal lamps which are not working for repair, considering the incredible job they did on the lampshades I have 100% confidence in their work. I am one happy camper!

Upholstered lamp shades and did a great job! Not many places do this type of work. Reasonably priced. Took only a week. Also provided a great shade and sold brass finiels. Changed sockets and harp which made the lamp look great.

Filip and his wife Gisele (who are French) at the Light Switch are incredible. I have an over $600 solid crystal lamp that was broken during a recent move from Los Angeles. I phoned several lamp repair shops in and around Miami including taking it to the design district to seek advice. Not one shop would attempt to repair the bedside lamp because it was crystal.

I brought it to Felipe and he said he would attempt the repair but wasn't sure that it could work given the base was broken and the lamp weighs nearly 20 lbs. He indicated to me if he couldn't repair it he would not charge me for his time & effort. Filip phoned me the next business day and said he'd repaired the crystal lamp and "it looks great".

He was a bit off as it looks absolutely fantastic considering the damage that was done. I am so grateful for Filip and now looking at the two matching crystal lamps on either side of my bed, it's not noticeable which one of the two lamps were damaged and repaired. I also bought a beautiful black linen "eye shaped" lamp shade that Filip hand crafted that looks absolutely perfect in my new diggs! I am a most grateful and extremely happy customer! Filip's French craftsmanship on the lamps and lamp shades are tres bon!
