Landscape
Lighting
Extend your outdoor living hours with clean, layered LED lighting. We design path, accent, and uplighting systems with reliable transformer setups and smart controls.
Your Vision,
Our Craftsmanship
We turn outdoor living dreams into spaces you actually want to spend time in — designed around how you live, built with the care your home deserves.
SINCE 2012
Design First
Every project starts with understanding how you want the space to feel — then we design around that vision with 3D renderings and material selections.
Built To Last
Our builds go deeper than what you see on the surface. Proper base prep, drainage, and materials mean your outdoor space stays beautiful for decades.
Certified Crew
ICPI and NCMA certified installers. We hold national certifications so you don't have to worry about whether the work was done right.
Full Service
From the first phone call to the final walkthrough — design, materials, permitting, installation, and warranty. One team, one process, one point of contact.
Low Energy Load
Efficient fixtures provide strong output with reduced power draw.
Low-Voltage System
Transformer-based lighting plans for safe and dependable operation.
Control Zones
Create separate scenes for entry paths, entertaining, and security light.
Weather Ready
Outdoor-rated components selected for year-round Central Virginia use.
Light the Space, Not Just the Path
A successful lighting plan balances visibility, safety, and mood. We layer fixtures so walkways are easy to navigate, entry points are clearly defined, and key features stand out naturally at night.
We often pair lighting upgrades with patio, step, or retaining wall projects so conduit paths and fixture locations are coordinated from the start. If your project includes runoff concerns, our drainage solutions service can be planned in parallel.
Core Fixture Layers
- Path Lighting: Low-glare fixtures for safe movement along walkways and steps.
- Uplighting: Accent beams for trees, columns, and textured facades.
- Feature Lighting: Targeted light for water features, seat walls, and outdoor kitchens.
"Great landscape lighting should look intentional and feel effortless every night of the week."
Transformer and Control Planning
We size transformer capacity for your fixture count, voltage run length, and expansion goals. Smart controls can include dusk-to-dawn settings, schedules, dimming, and mobile app access for simple long-term operation.

Landscape Lighting FAQ
What types of landscape lighting do you install?
We install LED path lights, uplighting for trees and facades, downlighting, wall-wash fixtures, and accent lighting for steps, seating walls, and outdoor kitchens. Each plan is designed for safety first, then nighttime curb appeal.
Do you offer smart controls and automation?
Yes. We can set up timer-based and app-based controls with dimming zones, seasonal scheduling, and remote access. Smart transformers make it easy to adjust your scene without rewiring the system.
How long do LED landscape lights last?
Most high-quality LED fixtures and lamps provide long service life with low energy use. Exact life span depends on fixture grade and runtime, but LED systems typically outlast older halogen systems by a wide margin.
Can lighting be added after a patio or walkway is already built?
In most cases, yes. We route low-voltage wiring with minimal disruption and place fixtures to improve visibility, highlight key features, and preserve a clean finished look.
