Lighting That Works, Not Just Decorates

Outdoor lighting installation is about function first: a dark entryway that needs a fixture by the door, a driveway with no light at the far end, a side yard where anyone could walk up unseen. We install line-voltage exterior fixtures — wall packs, floodlights, motion-sensor lights, dusk-to-dawn porch and garage lights — positioned to cover the areas that actually matter for safety and visibility.

That means proper weatherproof boxes and connections, GFCI protection where required by code, and motion or photocell controls set up so lights come on when needed instead of running all night or not triggering at all. This is different from decorative garden lighting: the goal here is coverage and reliability, not ambiance. Whether you’re lighting a new build’s exterior, closing a dark spot that’s become a safety concern, or replacing failed fixtures that were never installed to code, we handle the wiring and placement so the system holds up outside year-round.

What Our Clients Say

★★★★★

“The side yard and the far end of the driveway are the two spots homeowners forget until something happens. A properly placed motion light closes both gaps for less than people expect.”

“We had a dark stretch between our garage and back gate for years. They put in a motion floodlight and it’s made a real difference at night.”

Questions

Outdoor Lighting Installation FAQs

Yes, electrical code requires GFCI protection for most exterior receptacles and many exterior fixture circuits. We wire outdoor lighting to meet current code requirements.

Outdoor lighting installation focuses on line-voltage security and functional fixtures — floodlights, entry lights, motion sensors. Landscape lighting is low-voltage accent lighting for gardens and features. Many properties use both.

Often yes, either by swapping in a motion-sensor fixture or adding a separate motion sensor switch, depending on your current wiring.

Cost depends on fixture type, wiring runs, and how many locations need coverage, so we don’t post a flat rate. Final pricing depends on site conditions, materials, and permit requirements — call for a free on-site estimate.
