Popular Landscape Lighting Techniques

Uplighting

This technique places a light at the base of an object to illuminate it from below. Uplighting is popular for large trees, statues, and flag poles.

Silhouetting

A band of light shining from behind an object creates a silhouette that stands out against the surroundings. We suggest silhouetting for plants or shrubbery with unique structures.

Moonlighting

This technique places lights above structures, like statues or trees, and creates dramatic shadows across the ground.

Shadowing

The reverse of silhouetting, shadowing lights landscape features from directly in front to cast intriguing shadows behind them.

Landscape Lighting Maintenance

The key to enjoying landscape lighting for many years is consistent maintenance and repairing damage quickly. Like interior lighting, outdoor lighting requires ongoing maintenance to continue performing correctly. First, inspect and clean the fixtures regularly, check for wiring damage and loose connections, and trim nearby shrubbery to prevent it from covering the lights. If your outdoor lighting is damaged or not functioning correctly, call us! We can maintain it and make any repairs as needed.

Landscape Lighting Repair Near Burlington, KY

Even with diligent maintenance, your landscape lighting will need repairs at some point. The three most common reasons customers call us for repair services are:

Lamp burnout: Bulbs that won’t light, are dimming, or shift in color can indicate a lamp burning out.
Fixture damage: Fixtures with cracks, rust, or water inside the frame need replacing; fixtures that have become loose with time are generally candidates for repair.
Wiring problems: Landscape lighting that flickers, frequently trips the circuit breaker, or gives a mild shock when you touch the fixtures needs professional wiring repair. If you suspect a wiring problem, immediately turn off the power to your landscape lighting.

Landscape Lighting FAQs

Will landscape lighting raise my electricity bill?
Adding any electrical components to your home will increase your energy consumption. However, LED lights use minimal electricity, making them worth the initial investment.
Where should I place landscape lighting?
Landscape lighting is excellent for several areas, including:

Walkways leading to your front door or throughout your property
Decks and patios
The base of large trees or shrubs
Water features, like fountains or ponds
Driveways
How long do outdoor lights last?
On average, you can expect LED bulbs to last around 25,000 hours or five years of regular use. LED bulbs can last up to 50,000 hours if you use your landscape lighting intermittently. Halogen bulbs cost less initially but have a lifespan of less than 5,000 hours and use more energy than LED lights.
