Why Add Outdoor Lighting
Deter Crime & Increase Safety
Well-placed motion and dusk-to-dawn security lighting is one of the most effective burglary deterrents, and lights walkways and steps to prevent trips and falls.

Patio, deck, and pergola lighting let you enjoy your outdoor spaces long after sunset, with weatherproof fixtures built to survive Chicago winters.
Our Outdoor Lighting Process
Nighttime Design
We walk your property at dusk to plan fixture placement, beam angles, and light levels for security and ambiance.
Trench & Wire
We run low-voltage and line-voltage wiring in proper conduit, with GFCI protection and minimal lawn disruption.
Fixture Install
We mount weatherproof fixtures, aim beams, and set timers or smart controls — all rated for outdoor use.
Aim & Walkthrough
We fine-tune aim and brightness after dark, show you the controls, and leave the property clean.
Outdoor Lighting Questions
Q.Do outdoor lights need GFCI protection?
Yes. All outdoor receptacles and most outdoor lighting circuits require GFCI protection to prevent shock in wet conditions. We install weatherproof, in-use-rated covers and GFCI breakers or receptacles on every outdoor circuit.
Q.Can you add lighting to an existing landscape?
Yes. We retrofit pathway, accent, and security lighting into finished landscapes with low-voltage systems and minimal trenching, plus smart timers and photocells for automatic operation.
Q.Are the fixtures weatherproof for Chicago winters?
We use wet-location-rated, corrosion-resistant fixtures and bury wiring at proper depth in conduit so your system survives freeze-thaw cycles, snow, and salt for years.
Q.Can I control my outdoor lights from my phone?
Yes. We install smart outdoor lighting controls, astronomic timers, and photocell sensors so your lights turn on automatically at dusk and can be adjusted from an app or voice assistant.
