Outdoor Living

The last layer of a finished yard

Why only enjoy the look of your home during the day? There are endless opportunities to light up your landscape at night and enjoy your investment more.

Lighting is usually the final layer on a property that is otherwise complete — and it tends to change how much the space actually gets used more than almost anything else. Path lights make the walkway usable, uplighting a specimen tree gives the backyard a focal point after dark, and fixtures mounted up in the canopy of a wooded lot cast a soft, even glow that reads as moonlight.

It is important to have high quality equipment, proper spacing and correct installation — let our team help you do it right.

Landscape Lighting

What's Included

Path lighting — Along walkways and natural stone steps — the safety case and the aesthetic case are the same case.
Architectural accents — Highlighting the stone on your house at night.
Tree lighting — Specimen trees lit from below, or lights added up in the canopy of a wooded backyard to cast a glow.
Entertaining areas — Lighting for patios and outdoor spaces so they stay usable after dark.
Safety and security — A lit property is both easier to move around and less inviting to walk up to.
Our process

Designing a lighting scheme

Start from how the space is used, not from the fixture catalogue.

01 — Walk it after dark

Walk it after dark

What you want to see, what you want lit for safety, and where the glare would be — all of which are different questions in daylight.

02 — Pick the focal points

Pick the focal points

Stonework, specimen trees, the path to the front door, the patio. Lighting everything equally lights nothing.

03 — Space and specify

Space and specify

Quality fixtures at the right spacing. This is where most DIY schemes come apart.

04 — Install and aim

Install and aim

Installed, then aimed at night with the system running — the only time you can actually see what you are adjusting.

Frequently asked questions

Landscape Lighting FAQs

What can landscape lighting actually do?
Beautify the house, add safety and security, highlight stonework or specimen trees, light outdoor entertaining areas, and put path lights along walkways and natural stone steps. On wooded lots, lights up in the trees cast a soft glow across the whole backyard.
Does equipment quality matter?
Yes. High quality equipment, proper spacing and correct installation are what separate a lighting scheme that still looks right in five years from one that has half its fixtures out and a visible wire.
Can lighting be added to an existing landscape?
Usually, yes. Lighting is often the last layer added to a yard that is otherwise finished, and it tends to change how much the space gets used more than any other single improvement.
