Frequently asked questions about outdoor & landscape lighting companies

How much you can expect to pay to install outdoor lighting varies according to a number of factors. The electrical contractor cost for a landscape lighting installation will be affected by the going rates in your locale. The electrician labor fee will also be affected by the size of the area you wish to light, the condition of the site, and the complexity of the project. There will also be inspection and permit fees. In addition, you’ll need to figure in the cost of materials, the type of bulbs. When you are planning an outdoor lighting project, make sure you get a detailed, written estimate for the cost to install outdoor lighting on your property.

An outdoor lighting project can be very rewarding. Adding outdoor lighting to your home increases security, adds beauty to your surroundings, and makes outdoor space available for entertaining after dark. However, it is important to make a number of key decisions at the outset. It may make sense to have a landscape designer help you sort through the options for style, materials, type of lighting and where to locate it. While consulting a landscaping pro will add to the price of the lighting project, it may be worth the cost.

If you are considering undertaking a landscape lighting project, you’ll have lots of decisions to make up front. You’ll need to decide on materials, style, and designs that best suit your needs. There are a variety of types of outdoor lighting, but today, most are run low voltage. Unlike line voltage which is 120 volts, low voltage lighting only uses 12 volts to power all of the light fixtures. Low voltage is safer to work with and installation is less expensive. While it may be tempting to undertake the landscape lighting project on your own, it may make sense to hire an electrician.

You might be considering installing path lighting to illuminate the way around your property, or up lighting which uses a spotlight on the ground aimed at a property highlight such as a flagpole, or beautiful tree. There are many other types of lighting that enhance a property’s landscape. In any case, when it comes to outdoor lighting installation it makes sense to consult an electrical professional. They will help you get your outdoor lighting project installed safely, efficiently, and leave it looking as you had imagined.

If you are considering an outdoor lighting installation, you may wonder if the outdoor lights will require a separate circuit from your interior lights. In fact, both the outdoor lights and indoor lights can run on the same circuit. Prior to starting an outdoor lighting installation project, the landscaper and electrician will meet to understand how the space will be used on a day-to-day basis. Underground wiring, wiring to the meter, and existing electrical wiring will all need to be assessed prior to beginning the project. When the outdoor lighting installation project is complete, there will likely be a final inspection to make sure there is nothing that could cause a fire hazard.

Installing outdoor lighting can increase your home’s security and safety. Outdoor lights add beauty to the landscape, illuminating pathways and emphasizing important structures. Landscape lighting allows you to entertain outdoors after dark. Landscape lighting is well worth the up front investment of time to ensure the electrical safety of your project.
