Getting Started

Yes — completely free, with no obligation whatsoever. We'll come to your property, walk the yard with you, and put together a custom lighting design at no cost. You're not committing to anything by scheduling a consult.
We'll walk the full property with you and talk through what you're hoping to achieve — whether that's curb appeal, security, entertaining space, or all of the above. We'll take notes, discuss options, and put together a written plan with pricing before we leave. No pressure to commit.
Typically within one to two weeks, depending on the time of year. We'll give you a clear installation date when you approve the project.

Cost & Pricing

Every project is different depending on the size of the property and the scope of work. A starter package for a front entry and a few trees typically starts around $1,500–$2,500. Full property packages vary widely. We'll give you an exact quote during the free consultation.
Absolutely. Many homeowners start with the front of the house and add the back yard or other areas later. We can design the full system from the beginning so it all works together seamlessly when you're ready.
No — all of our installs use LED fixtures, which are extremely energy efficient. A typical full system running on a timer costs between $10–$25 per month in electricity, depending on the number of fixtures and your local rates.

Installation

Most residential installs are completed in a single day. Larger properties or more complex designs may take two days. We'll give you a clear timeframe when we provide your quote.
Yes. We take great care to route all wiring cleanly and out of sight — along edges, under mulch, or through conduit where appropriate. Our goal is for the finished install to look like it was always there.
We do the work ourselves. The same people who consult with you are the ones installing your lighting. We don't subcontract — that's how we maintain the quality and care we're known for.
We do a walkthrough with you at the end of every job — at night, with everything powered on — so you can see exactly how it looks. If anything isn't right, we adjust it before we leave. We don't call a job done until you say it's done.

Products & Technology

We use professional-grade fixtures from trusted manufacturers built for longevity in outdoor conditions. We'll discuss fixture options during the consultation based on your specific goals and budget.
Yes — we offer smart timer and app-controlled systems that let you set schedules, adjust brightness, and control everything from your phone. We'll walk you through the options during the consultation.
Yes — exclusively. LED fixtures use a fraction of the energy of halogen, produce a better, more consistent light, and last significantly longer. There's no reason to use anything else for outdoor lighting today.

Maintenance

Very little. LED fixtures are designed to last for years without attention. Occasionally a timer may need adjusting with the seasons, or a fixture may need to be repositioned after landscaping work. We're always a call away if anything needs attention.
Give us a call and we'll come take a look. We stand behind our work and want your system running perfectly long after installation day.

Service Area

We serve Greater Birmingham and the surrounding communities — including Hoover, Mountain Brook, Vestavia Hills, Homewood, Trussville, and more — as well as the Lake Martin area. If you're not sure whether we cover your area, just give us a call.
Yes — Lake Martin is one of our most popular service areas. Many of our clients have lake homes they want lit beautifully for summer evenings. We service the full lake area.
