Outdoor Lighting is an Important Part of Any Landscaper’s Job

NOT ONLY DOES IT MAKE YOUR CLIENTS’ HOMES LOOK BEAUTIFUL AT NIGHT, BUT IT ALSO PROVIDES SAFETY AND SECURITY.

Installing outdoor lighting is a relatively easy job, but there are a few key tips and tricks to keep in mind.

• First, make sure you understand the local building codes and restrictions related to installing outdoor lighting. This will help ensure your installation is up to code and you’re not breaking any laws. 
  
  
• Second, choose the right type of lighting fixtures for the job. Depending on the area, you may need to install LED, solar, or traditional incandescent lighting. LED lights are the most energy efficient but they may be more expensive upfront. Solar lights are great for areas where electricity is not available, but they may need to be replaced every few years. 
  
  
• Third, determine the best placement for the lights. You want to make sure the lights will be effective in providing the desired amount of light and that they won’t be a distraction or nuisance to neighbors. 
  
  
• Fourth, make sure you protect the wiring. This is especially important if you’re using an underground system. Choose the right type of conduit and make sure it is securely fastened. 
  
  
• Finally, test the system before you’re done. It’s important to make sure the lights are working properly and that no wires were damaged during installation. 

Installing outdoor lighting is a great way to make a home look beautiful and provide security and safety. By following these tips, you can ensure your installation goes smoothly and your clients are happy with the results.
