1B Specialty Lighting was created by Tom Blee and Aaron Bentley, both Fort Wayne natives. The two worked together at a prominent landscape company for 20 years prior to starting 1B Specialty. Landscape lighting was one of the services at that landscape company. Tom and Aaron have seen LED evolve from the beginning and know it has been proven to be the only long term, energy efficient light source.
The two caught the entrepreneurship bug and bet on LED to change the way we live and especially light up our landscapes. We've been asked many times, "why are you called 1B Specialty?" Well, we're the first to tell you that it may not be the most clever name in the business world! While Tom and Aaron were driving to Indianapolis for business, they discussed starting their own lighting company and making a difference in this emerging field.

Services
What do you want in your lighting: safety, security, beauty? How old is your lighting system? Are you aware of how much it is costing to operate with high wattage bulbs that burn out and rising electricity costs? Do you know what color temperature is and how it will change the looks of what you are lighting?
Our lighting installation process is a work of art! First off, we hand trench for all of our underground wire to be buried. You'll be impressed when you return home and can't tell where we installed lighting wire. Hand trenching does not disrupt the grass like a "trencher" would. This also helps from tearing through possible dog wire fence, irrigation, etc.
We maintain many types of lighting, but specialize in the great outdoors! While our strongest expertise is in exterior structure and landscape lighting, we can also assist with many other types of lighting. Tired of dealing with burnt out bulbs and dirty light fixtures? Let us do the work and your place will never look better!
Beauty, Safety, and security. We customize each home to exactly what you are looking for in lighting. Invest in your home and your outdoor living space. LED lighting means no more light bulbs to change and 80% savings on electricity. We think you'll be amazed at the results, and with a Kichler 15 year "stay lit" warranty, your lighting will pay for itself!
We're helping businesses upgrade to LED and high efficiency lighting the smart way. Electricity costs are at all time highs and when it comes to lighting, incandescent is terribly inefficient and soon becoming a thing of the past. CFL bulbs (compact flourescent) contain mercury and have a "warm up" phase of waiting for light to come to brightness.
