One of their driver decided to speed up and cut me off. If I was this company I wouldn’t want my name on it.

How many lights do I need for my outdoor space?
The number of lights required varies depending on your specific needs. Our team will develop a personalized landscape lighting plan tailored to your unique outdoor space.

Indeed, we utilize 2700K lighting in our landscape installations. Based on our experience, this provides sufficient illumination for walkways without causing discomfort to the eyes.
Do you have color options?
We offer a range of color choices for both fixtures and lighting in our exterior lighting installations to suit your preferences.
Is your exterior lighting automated?
We provide various automation options for our landscape lighting solutions, including basic timers, astrological timers, and smartphone app controls, depending on your specific installation.
What are the benefits of professional outdoor lighting installation?
Professional exterior lighting installation offers several advantages, including improved home security and safety, increased property value (typically 15-20% in our experience), expert design and placement, high-quality fixtures and materials, proper electrical safety measures, extended outdoor enjoyment in the evenings, and warranty protection with ongoing maintenance support.
How much does professional outdoor lighting installation cost?
The cost of professional exterior lighting installation is influenced by factors such as property size and layout, number of fixtures required, fixture types selected, installation complexity, and control system requirements. Residential projects vary in price, and we recommend scheduling a consultation with our outdoor lighting contractors for an accurate estimate based on your specific needs and objectives.
What types of outdoor lighting fixtures are best for my landscape?
Common landscape lighting options include path lights for walkways and gardens, uplights for trees and architectural features, well lights for ground-level illumination, spotlights for focal points, step lights for safety, security floodlights, and deck and patio lights. The ideal combination depends on your property's unique features and lighting goals.
How energy-efficient are modern outdoor lighting systems?
Contemporary outdoor lighting systems are highly energy-efficient. LED lights can last up to 40,000 hours (about 20 years of regular use) compared to two years for halogen bulbs. LED fixtures consume up to 80% less energy than traditional bulbs. Smart controls optimize operating hours, while timers and motion sensors reduce unnecessary usage. Most systems average only $10-20 monthly in energy costs, and LED bulbs typically last 50,000+ hours (15-20 years of normal use).
What maintenance is required for outdoor lighting systems?
To ensure optimal performance, regular maintenance tasks include annual professional inspections, periodic fixture cleaning, bulb replacement as needed, adjusting timing and angles, checking wires and connections, trimming vegetation around fixtures, and system updates and repairs. Most exterior lighting installations include maintenance plans to address these needs.
