Capitol Lighting & Restoration, Inc. is owned and operated by Brenda
Hoyt and John Fuchs. Both bring their own unique talents to the
organization making it unrivaled in the lighting industry.
Whether it is the design of special ornamental exit signs or small
accent lights to be installed in very small spaces, Capitol Lighting has
always prevailed in the face of difficult design challenges.
Capitol Lighting & Restoration continues to successfully modify
existing and antique lighting equipment to make use of newly developed light
sources. It has always been a corporate philosophy to restore old
fixtures rather than discard them and supply new replacements - it is a
philosophy much appreciated by sensitive clients.
Brenda Hoyt serves Capitol Lighting as its President & CEO. Among her responsibilities
are the sales and marketing of the company's services and products. Brenda's
marketing background includes over twenty years of experience in the lighting
industry on the national scene, enabling her to initiate and coordinate
sales efforts on large projects. Brenda closely tracks projects, monitoring
their progress from design and specification, on to the construction phase,
through safe delivery to the job site, focusing on client satisfaction.
