National Lighting MSC "Frequently
Asked Questions"
Q. What areas of the country do you
complete lighting projects?
A. Even though we are based out of Western Pennsylvania, we have
completed projects from coast to coast. We typically stay within a
500-mile radius for most projects (PA, NY, MD, VA, WV, OH, MI, IN, NJ, DE, CT,
KY) However, we will travel farther for larger-scale projects.
Contact us for more information about your particular project or facility.
Q. Do you hire subcontractors for your projects?
A. No. We do not subcontract our projects. On occasion, we
may work in conjunction with a local electrical contractor to insure that all
local permits and codes are met, but our crew chiefs are always on-site, as our
reputation is on the line on every project, we prefer if we handle every issue
ourselves.

materials do you supply?
A. Our best pricing is from Philips lighting for lamps, we also
directly supply Advance ballasts, Universal ballasts, Howard ballasts, Lithonia
fixtures, Lumax fixtures, EPA fixtures,

specific brand you would like to utilize on your turnkey project, we have
connections for great pricing for all brands and can accommodate your needs.
