Different areas around your home need different types of lights; using only one model around the entire house and yard isn't going to cut it. We create a customized plan to add the most appropriate lighting in the spots where your property needs illumination. Whether you need a garden path to glow with solar-powered bulbs or motion-activated spotlights for your front and side doors, we will put in place the fixtures that give you the best combination of efficiency and light.
Some of the types of outdoor lights we can install are:
Well-designed and properly installed outdoor lighting helps keep you safe. Security lighting with motion-activation can turn on whenever someone approaches, often stopping potential intruders in their tracks. Suitable landscape lighting in Tampa also allows you to see where you're going when it's dark. This provides added safety when in your yard or garden at night. Pool, patio, and deck lighting also helps you avoid tripping and falling.
Finally, great lighting, when installed by our outdoor electricians in Tampa, can enhance the overall aesthetics of your property after dark. Illuminate specific plants or hardscape features to showcase them, or install lights that make the property look bright and inviting to guests. Additionally, effective lighting can often add to your property's value.
When you work with us for landscape lighting in Tampa, you'll get help with everything from design to maintenance. Initially, we'll meet with you for a design consultation, during which we listen to your goals. We'll guide you through the fixture-selection process, including choosing the control method and ensuring proper placement for security lights. Options for controls include switches, timers, smart lighting, photocells, solar cells, or motion sensor lights in Tampa.
Following this is electrical planning, during which we assess the electrical load that the lighting will add to your home. This helps determine whether any of the lights require additional circuits on your home's circuit panel. We can also add weatherproofing, GFCI connections, or additional conduits as needed.
Then come the outdoor lighting installation and testing phases. We install the lighting and check how evenly they distribute light. We also look for issues with glare and adjust the lighting as needed. And we'll ensure the lights are ready for any code inspections.
Sometimes what your property needs isn't entirely new lighting, but rather an upgrade or replacement of existing fixtures. For example, if you have well-placed lighting that uses halogen bulbs, you're wasting a lot of energy. Transitioning from halogen bulbs to LED bulbs makes the lighting much more energy-efficient. Plus, LEDs are longer-lasting. We can add motion sensors, photocells, or smart controls to existing lights. If you have old or damaged components, like failing transformers, corroded boxes, or fixtures damaged by water intrusion, we can replace them.
After we install everything, we can also help you with maintaining the entire lighting layout. This includes services such as replacing broken or cracked parts, like gaskets or lenses. After a severe storm, we can assess the connections and other components to ensure the lights are safe to use. We'll be there, whether your motion lights won't turn on or your pool lights are dim.
We serve the Tampa area from Bayshore Boulevard to Brandon. This includes dock and pool lighting around Tampa for waterfront homes. We can also install backyard lighting for an entertainment space in places like Carrollwood.
