We are The Lentz Companies, Inc., and we have been in business for over 40 years.
We specialize in:
Landscape lighting installations and service, interior electrical installations and service, and generator installations and service. Most of our customers are high-end customers who live in the Dallas-Fort Worth, and corresponding areas. However, we do work all over the state of Texas.
Our niche market is: we climb trees, and install lights in them. Our work truly looks like moonlight shining through the trees! Many of our customers are repeat business, with much of our work coming from word-of-mouth. We do not use AI for any of our business operations, nor do we use an automated phone system. Because of this, our customers appreciate the level of service we give them.
We are looking for an Executive Administrative Assistant, and have not been able to find someone who is qualified and wants to do the job. We are consistently getting candidates who tell us what we want to hear. They are hired, but cannot actually do what they said they had the qualifications for during the interview process. This is an administrative support role in an office environment.
