Also known as garden lighting or outdoor lighting, landscape lighting illuminates your outdoor living spaces, walkways, patios, trees, and other landscaping features, along with your home’s exterior.

Many of our landscape projects utilize the use of floodlights. Typically, floodlighting is used for security or to illuminate large trees with big canopies. These lights are best used for softly illuminating architectural features, such as uplighting the fronts of stucco homes. It can also be used for silhouetting effects that add character and design appeal to otherwise bland, blank spaces. They can provide a bright, wide area of light that can be used to deter intruders. Floodlights can be used to provide a bright light source for nighttime entertaining.

There are many types of outdoor lighting fixtures available, including wall sconces, hanging lanterns, post lights, floodlights, and spotlights.
Consider the style of your home, the size and location of the area you want to illuminate, the level of brightness you need, and the type of bulb and energy efficiency.
Position your outdoor lighting fixtures to create a balanced and inviting look. Consider highlighting features such as trees, gardens, or walkways, and make sure there are no dark spots that could pose a safety hazard.
LED bulbs are generally the better option for outdoor lighting, as they are more energy-efficient, longer-lasting, and emit less heat than halogen bulbs.
