We design and install comprehensive outdoor lighting systems that enhance your property's beauty, safety, and security. Our services include architectural accent lighting, pathway and walkway illumination, tree uplighting, garden and plant bed lighting, pool and water feature lighting, and security lighting for perimeters and dark areas.

Every installation integrates seamlessly with Control4 and Lutron automation systems, allowing intelligent scheduling, dimming, and scene control. As a Lutron certified installer and exclusive dealer in our region, we provide access to premium outdoor lighting products engineered for reliability and performance in South Carolina's demanding coastal environment.

Professional landscape lighting dramatically enhances curb appeal and property value while improving safety and security. Well-designed lighting transforms outdoor spaces into usable evening entertainment areas, highlights architectural features and landscaping investments, and deters intruders by eliminating dark hiding spots.

Quality outdoor lighting extends your living space outdoors for evening enjoyment, reduces liability from trip hazards on walkways and steps, and creates stunning visual effects that showcase your property's best features. Professionally designed systems use proper fixture placement, appropriate light levels, and color temperature selection to create beautiful, functional lighting—not the harsh, over-lit appearance common with DIY installations.

LED landscape lighting offers dramatic advantages including 75-90% energy savings compared to halogen bulbs, 50,000+ hour lifespan (20-25 years of typical use), minimal maintenance with no bulb replacements for decades, and superior light quality with consistent color temperature and no yellowing over time.

LEDs produce minimal heat, making them safer around plants and less attractive to insects. They're also dimmable, allowing precise control through Lutron and Control4 systems for creating different moods and scenes. Modern LED fixtures withstand South Carolina's coastal weather far better than traditional lighting, with sealed housings that resist moisture and corrosion. The energy efficiency and longevity make LED lighting an investment that pays for itself through reduced utility costs and eliminated maintenance expenses.

As a Lutron certified installer and exclusive dealer in a 75-mile radius, we integrate outdoor lighting with Lutron's professional lighting control systems for intelligent automation and scene control. This allows automated scheduling that adjusts for seasonal sunset changes, dimming capabilities for creating ambiance, and integration with astronomical timeclock features.

Through Control4 integration, your landscape lighting coordinates with indoor lighting, security systems, and outdoor entertainment. Create scenes like "Evening Entertainment" that sets perfect lighting levels for outdoor dining, or "Away Mode" that simulates occupancy with randomized lighting patterns. Voice control allows adjusting outdoor lighting with simple commands, and smartphone apps provide remote control from anywhere.

Absolutely. South Carolina's coastal environment demands commercial-grade fixtures engineered for harsh conditions. We exclusively install marine-grade landscape lighting with corrosion-resistant materials, sealed housings that prevent moisture intrusion, UV-stabilized finishes that resist fading, and waterproof connections and transformers.

Our fixtures withstand salt air, humidity, temperature extremes, and direct sun exposure that destroy consumer-grade products within months. Professional-grade components maintain performance and appearance for 20+ years in coastal conditions. We also use proper burial depths for low-voltage wiring, corrosion-resistant fasteners, and weatherproof junction boxes. Through our managed services, we provide regular maintenance including lens cleaning, connection inspection, and vegetation management to ensure optimal performance year after year.

Low-voltage landscape lighting (12V or 24V) is the professional standard for residential applications, offering significant safety advantages, easier installation with no electrical permits required in most jurisdictions, more flexibility in fixture placement, and lower energy costs. Low-voltage systems are safer around children, pets, and water features.

120V line-voltage lighting is reserved for specific applications requiring longer wire runs or high-intensity illumination like security floodlights or large commercial properties. For most residential landscape lighting, properly designed low-voltage systems deliver superior performance, aesthetics, and safety. We design systems with appropriate transformer sizing, proper wire gauge calculations for voltage drop compensation, and professional-grade components that maintain consistent brightness across all fixtures.

Professional landscape lighting design creates subtle, layered illumination that enhances rather than overwhelms. We use the "less is more" philosophy—strategic fixture placement with appropriate wattages creates dramatic effects without glare or light pollution. Our designs emphasize focal points while maintaining dark areas for contrast and depth.

We consider beam angles, fixture positioning, light color temperature, and intensity to create natural-looking illumination. Techniques include uplighting trees from their base, cross-lighting for dimensional depth, path lighting at appropriate heights to eliminate glare, and moonlighting from trees for gentle, naturalistic effects. Professional design also accounts for neighboring properties, avoiding light trespass. We often conduct evening site visits during installation to make real-time adjustments, ensuring perfect results that photographs and renderings cannot fully capture.

Quality LED landscape lighting requires minimal maintenance—no bulb replacements for 20+ years and simple seasonal attention. Recommended maintenance includes periodic lens cleaning to remove dirt and salt spray, vegetation trimming to maintain proper light placement, connection inspection to ensure weatherproofing remains intact, and timer adjustments for seasonal daylight changes.

Our managed services provide comprehensive landscape lighting maintenance with scheduled visits that include thorough cleaning, aim adjustment as plants grow, connection testing, and proactive replacement of any components showing wear before failures occur. We also adjust lighting designs as landscaping matures, ensuring your lighting continues looking perfect as your property evolves. Professional maintenance protects your investment and ensures reliable, beautiful illumination year-round.

Absolutely. Integrated landscape lighting coordinates with security cameras, access control, and home automation for intelligent responses. When motion is detected, landscape lighting automatically increases to full brightness for enhanced security and better camera footage.

Integration enables automated scenes—"Good Morning" gradually increases outdoor lighting before sunrise, while "Goodnight" ensures perimeter security lighting activates when you arm the alarm. Vacation modes simulate occupancy with randomized lighting patterns. Landscape lighting also coordinates with gate operators to illuminate driveways during entry, and with outdoor entertainment systems for perfect ambiance during parties. This comprehensive integration transforms individual systems into a coordinated smart property.

DIY landscape lighting creates disappointing results with poor aesthetics, early failures, and wasted money. Consumer kits use inferior components that corrode quickly in coastal environments, produce inconsistent light quality, and lack proper voltage regulation causing uneven brightness. Most DIY installations look harsh and over-lit because homeowners lack training in lighting design principles.

Professional installation delivers custom design optimized for your specific property and goals, commercial-grade fixtures engineered for 20+ year lifespan in harsh environments, proper transformer sizing and voltage drop calculations, and seamless integration with Lutron and Control4 automation. We never subcontract—every fixture is positioned, aimed, and connected by our certified team. Our installations include buried wiring with proper protection, strategic fixture placement based on mature plant sizes, and comprehensive managed services for ongoing optimization. When you call at 8:30 on a Friday night, we answer—that's professional landscape lighting.
