Expand Your Outdoor Experience — Safely, Beautifully, and Thoughtfully.
Your yard doesn’t stop being valuable when the sun goes down — it just needs the right light to come alive. At Local Landscapers, our low voltage landscape lighting solutions are designed to enhance safety, extend usable outdoor hours, and highlight the beauty of your lawn, hardscape, and shoreline — all while being energy-efficient and long-lasting.
Whether you want subtle accents, dramatic uplighting, or functional pathway lighting, we build systems that are both reliable and beautiful.
Why Landscape Lighting Matters
Good lighting transforms your property in three powerful ways:
Safety & Security
Walkways, stairs, patios, and driveways become safer at night. Lighting helps prevent slips, trips, and falls — and can also deter unwanted activity.
Functionality After Dark
Use your outdoor spaces longer. Dinner outside, evening gatherings, or a quiet night on the patio — lighting makes all of it possible.
Curb Appeal & Ambiance
Soft illumination highlights architectural features, water elements, and plantings. It creates depth, warmth, and a welcoming glow that enhances aesthetic appeal.
What Is Low Voltage Lighting?
Low voltage lighting runs on a transformer that reduces standard power (120V) to a safer, lower electrical current (typically 12V). This system is ideal for residential landscape use because it:
- Uses less energy
- Puts out less heat
- Is safer around outdoor living spaces
- Costs less to operate
Yet the lighting impact is stunning and customizable.
Our Lighting Services Include
We offer complete low voltage lighting services, including:
Design & Planning
We evaluate your property, consider sightlines, key features, and the way you use your yard — then design a lighting plan that meets your goals.
Installation
Our team installs lighting fixtures, wiring, and transformers with professional precision to maximize performance and minimize visibility of equipment.
Feature Highlighting
We can accentuate:
- Patios and outdoor living areas
- Walkways and stairs
- Trees and focal plants
- Water features and ponds
- Shoreline edges and docks
Routine Maintenance
Like any outdoor system, lighting needs occasional adjustment, bulb changes, or cleanup from storm events. We offer maintenance so your lights look great year-round.
Design Considerations We Use
A good lighting plan isn’t about more lights — it’s about the right lights in the right places. We consider:
- Layered Lighting: Ambient, accent, and task lighting
- Angles & Shadows: To avoid glare and highlight features
- Fixture Types: Path lights, spotlights, well lights, and more
- Energy Efficiency: Optimized to run on low voltage systems
- Integration with Landscape & Hardscape: Coordination with patios, steps, walls, and plantings
Low Voltage vs. Solar Lighting
Low voltage systems deliver steady, reliable illumination — regardless of cloud cover or seasons. Solar lighting is convenient and inexpensive up front, but often lacks brightness, consistency, and longevity.
With low voltage systems:
- Lighting is brighter and more controllable
- Timers and sensors can be integrated
- Aesthetics and spacing are tailored for performance
Why Choose Local Landscapers for Lighting
We don’t treat lighting as an afterthought. We treat it as an extension of your outdoor design. That means:
- Thoughtful, site-specific plans
- Professional installation by trained crews
- Systems built to last through weather and seasons
- Integration with lawn, patio, hardscape, and shoreline features
- Clean wiring and placement that enhances — not distracts
Frequently Asked Questions

Will the system affect my HOA requirements?
We can help design lighting that meets neighborhood standards and regulations.
Does lighting require maintenance?
Occasionally — bulbs may be replaced, fixtures adjusted after storms, or wires repositioned due to plant growth.
