We blend low-voltage LED fixtures with the right placement so your deck, patio, and landscape look great without harsh glare. Typical elements include path lights, hardscape strip lighting, step and stair lights, uplights for trees or stone, and subtle downlights that make gatherings feel relaxed.

How Our Process Works
- Listen And Plan: We start with your goals, photos, and a quick walk-through. We discuss fixture styles, color temperature, and how bright each zone should feel.
- Design And Proposal: You receive a simple plan with zones and controls. Pricing varies by home size, materials, and season, and we keep it clear and straightforward.
- Professional Installation: Our crew protects your landscaping, hides wiring, and mounts fixtures cleanly. We set timers and test everything before we leave.
- Final Aiming At Dusk: We fine-tune angles and brightness so your patio, paths, and trees look exactly right when the sun goes down.
- Support And Upgrades: Need dimmers, scenes, or seasonal touches later? We can add controls and expand zones easily over time.
Smart dimmers and schedules make a big difference in comfort and savings. If you want app control or voice commands, learn more about our smart home and lighting controls.
Local tip: In our long winter nights, set your path and entry lights on staggered schedules. Use warmer 2700K LEDs along eye level and cooler tones only for tall trees. This reduces glare, saves energy, and keeps your neighbors happy.

Built For Palouse Weather And Local Homes
Moscow backyards handle all four seasons. Summer cookouts, windy fall evenings, snowy winters, and busy springs each shape how your lighting should perform. We favor sealed, low-profile fixtures, proper drainage, and solid mounts that handle freeze-thaw cycles. For decks, we consider wood movement and composite expansion so mounts stay neat and wiring stays hidden. For patios, we plan conduit paths and junctions that are easy to service later.
Common local projects include cedar and composite deck lighting, paver patio accent lighting, and soft wash lighting for fences and garden beds. We also help with patio accent light upgrades when you remodel hardscapes or add a hot tub. Our goal is a balanced, comfortable look with minimal hotspots.
Controls, Dimmers, And Energy Savings
Good controls are the secret to great outdoor lighting. We can set up photocells for sunset-on, smart plugs for seasonal decor, and app-based scenes for movie nights or late arrivals. With dimmers and zones, you can fade the seating area while keeping paths safe. Many systems run on very little power, and LEDs typically last for years with simple maintenance.
Want a smoother indoor-to-outdoor feel at night? Tie porch and patio zones to your dimmers and scenes through our smart home and lighting controls so everything works together with one tap.
What We Commonly Light Outside
- Deck rails, stair treads, and under-cap hardscape lighting
- Patio seating zones, grilling areas, and pergolas
- Walkways, drive edges, and address markers
- Trees, stonework, water features, and garden beds
- Side yards, gates, and dark corners for added security
For seasonal sparkle, our team can also help with tasteful displays and careful takedown. See ideas on our holiday lighting installation and takedown page.
