We also provide services for your hardscapes such as cleaning, power washing, sealing and any needed repairs. Please ask about our program packages for further cost savings to you.

Outdoor Lighting

The concept behind nightscaping is that you see the effect not the source, offering subtle hint of light throughout an area rather than a harsh broadcast of light. When designing a nightscaping system the focus is on the colors, textures and focal points of the area. Various lighting approaches include: Path lighting along walkways and patios. Down lighting off trees and house structure that acts as moonlighting. Up lighting to highlight trees or house features. A low voltage lighting system uses a significantly less amount of electric than your average lighting system. Due to its low wattage, beam spread can be controlled similar to theater lighting. You can highlight in particular areas instead of broadcasting. The first year installation includes free service, adjustments on wires and lamp replacement. The transformer comes with a photocell and timer so it is automatically set.
