The Importance of Outdoor Lighting

When it comes to a landscape lighting installation, it’s best to work with a landscaping contractor who understands outside lights as well. It’s important to select the right accessories and fixtures that light your landscaping with the desired effect. A landscaping contractor can also place power lines and other necessary outlets discreetly, hiding them within landscaping elements.

Grasshoppers offers both landscape design and outdoor lighting design. Contact us to begin your project today!

LED Outdoor Lighting

LED landscape lights can be hard-wired into your current exterior electrical system, or they can run independently on solar power. When choosing solar lights, we recommend consulting with us or another landscaping company, because placement really matters with this lighting. If LED lights are placed in shade or areas where the sun is only partial, some LED solar lights may not have enough power to illuminate the area! In these cases, a hard-wired lighting system will work better.

Custom Outdoor Lighting

We build custom designs for every property, whether you own your home, manage an HOA or have you own a commercial office building. Blending a variety of techniques, we’re able to get fantastic results with every project. Here are just a few of the design features we incorporate:

Spot or Accent Lighting: Used to highlight the focal points in your flower beds, gardens, waterfalls, trees, shrubs, and other areas.
- They’re also commonly used to light up business signs at night.
Shadowing: Lighting the object low and from the front, to project amazing shadows on vertical surfaces like walls.
Grazing: Brings out the texture of subjects like masonry walls, tree bark, entrance doors, wood shingles, and other items by positioning the light close by.
Silhouetting: Places landscape lights below or behind a bush or trees. It produces a silhouetted effect that can be seen on a ridge or small hill against the skyline.
Fountain and Pool Lighting: Used in water features to create dramatic effects and colors.
- Dimmers, timers, and other features can also be added to intensify the effects.

How to Wire Outdoor Lighting

The best way to wire your outdoor lighting is to run a low-voltage electrical cable underground to power your outdoor lighting fixtures. In addition to your electrical cable, you’ll need:

Outdoor lighting fixtures
A transformer
A GFCI protected outdoor electrical outlet
Tools to dig a trench in your yard

If you don’t have a GFCI protected outdoor electrical outlet, you’ll want to hire an electrician to install one. It’s not safe to use an extension cord or indoor outlet for your outdoor lighting system. Your transformer should also be able to support the wattage of your system, so that’s something else to keep in mind.
