Patio Lighting Installation Services

Aside from ensuring the lights you pick out are outdoor rated, choose lights that follow a theme but bring something unique to your patio’s lighting scheme. Use general lighting such as sconces and string lights to provide widespread light throughout the patio area. Illuminate stairs with step lights and use post lights to make walkways and decks safe.

It depends on the purpose each light serves on your patio. About 40 lumens is suitable for low background lighting like string lights. Sconces, can lights, and post lights should fall within the 80 to 120-lumen range.

Only fixtures rated for outdoor use (that are installed correctly) are waterproof and weatherproof. For patio string lights, only choose those that are approved for outdoor use.

Choosing the right patio lights depends on how you plan to use your outdoor space. Consider the mood you want to create, the areas you want to illuminate, and the style of your patio. Speak to your trusted service professional about patio lighting options and choose the perfect ones for your needs.

Solar patio lights are a great option for spaces without outdoor outlets. They're easy to install since they don't require wiring, and they harness the power of the sun, saving you energy and money. However, keep in mind that their brightness and duration depend on sunlight availability, so they might not be ideal for areas with limited sun exposure.

Yes, you can. Mixing different types of patio lights can create a dynamic and layered lighting scheme. You could combine string lights for ambiance with spotlights to highlight specific features or use a combination of landscape lighting, path lighting, and motion sensors to illuminate walkways and landscaping.
