Homeowners spend a significant amount of time and money inside their homes to ensure there is a desired ambiance and proper task lighting, but thoughtful consideration for exterior illumination is equally important.
Professionally designed and installed architectural and landscape lighting is an artform that becomes an asset to any upscale home and will increase its value far beyond the cost of installation. When considering the ever-increasing daily stress and the hassle, expense and uncertainty of vacation travel, it begins to make perfect sense that more people are choosing to invest in their homes and spend their recreational time in their own backyards. Whether considering adding landscaping features, hardscaping, gardens, pathways, decks, arbors, cabanas, or pools, lighting these spaces is an integral part of creating a resort-like experience for entertaining. Whatever the reason may be for adding outdoor lighting, more sophisticated homeowners are using the services of professional outdoor lighting specialists to enrich their outdoor spaces and to make them more usable, more enjoyable, and more beautiful as evening falls.

7 Reasons to Consider an Outdoor Lighting System
- Aesthetic Appeal – exterior lighting creates ambiance and adds a touch of elegance to your home and property
- Safety – highlighting steps, walkways and revealing potential trip hazards will help you and your guests safely navigate your property after dark.
- Home Security – illuminating dark areas of your property will deter a potential intruder, home invasion attempts and/or negate other malicious activity that could be conducted unnoticed under the cover of darkness.
- Accent – outdoor lighting becomes an integral part of the landscape plan and emphasizes favorite architectural and landscape features.
- Visibility – provides lighting to an area that is typically dark and uninviting.
- Functionality – purposeful and decorative lighting makes it possible for you and your guests to further enjoy outdoor interests such as cooking, dining, and other recreational activities later into the evening.
- Increase Property Value – Studies show that professional outdoor lighting can add up to 20% of the perceived value of a home. Further studies indicate that 50% of potential homebuyers claim that outdoor lighting is an important feature to consider when buying a home.
