What You Should Know About Landscape Lighting

Enjoy the following pic ideas. Don't forget to leave us a quick comment below.

And please share this post within your social networks.

  • There are many things that make the home look warmer, beautiful, and more inviting. One such thing is landscaping.

    Homes with nicely done landscapes, having beautiful flowers and trees with well-defined shapes, are often look at as a lot better than homes with little or no landscaping.

    As a matter of fact, landscaping is one way you get houses with not-so-good architectural designs to look more appealing.

Why Use Outdoor Lighting

Notes:

  • Designing the Landscape:

    Landscape designs require plants – trees, shrubs, flowers, and other – each neatly arranged to accent the home and its surrounding. But plants do more than just contribute to the aesthetics of a home. They rid the environment of toxic greenhouse gases.

  • So, by beautifying your home, you’re also contributing to a cleaner, safer earth. If your home is yet to be landscaped, you’ll be missing out on these two key benefits. Click here to learn more about how plants help to keep the earth safe.
    • Side Note:

      Improving Property Value and the Environment

    • Landscaping improvements make the property look better and increase the value for reselling the home or refinancing the home.
    • Landscaping offers a decent return on investment. The return on investment comes in two ways.
    • First, it affects what you can get from the property when you resell it. Second, it affects the improved quality of life you have while living on the property.
    • image by 123rf.com

    • Additionally, landscaping impacts the environment. Plants improve air quality. Each tree planted on your property has the ability to remove up to 26 pounds of carbon dioxide each year.
    • view post: How Landscaping Can Improve Your Property Value
  • Lighting It Up:

    As important as landscaping is in beautifying a home, so is lighting, landscape lighting to be exact. You won’t be fully utilizing the potential of your home’s landscaping if you could only see them during the day.

  • After putting in all the work, don’t you think they should be shown off at night too? We’ll answer that for you; they should!
  • Nights are dark and your porch light won’t do much in illuminating your pretty yard. To get them lit up like the day, you’ll need to invest in landscape lighting.
  • If you have no idea what that is, don’t panic because, in this post (and gallery), we’ll cover some of the things you should know about landscape lighting and other landscape features.

What is Landscape Lighting?

Notes:

  • Runs On Less Energy:

    It is lighting specially done or installed to illuminate landscapes so that their beauty doesn’t go to waste at night. Most landscape lighting run-on low voltage of about 12V. Unlike 120V systems that are used in-house, it’s much safer to work with and won’t cost as much to install and maintain.

  • Despite running on only one-tenth the power of the home, there’s really no limit to the effects that professionals can achieve with them. From a subtle glow on a statement statue to ethereal moonlight beams on trees, there’s hardly any look that cannot be accomplished.
  • This is because landscaping lighting is more about the artistry involved than the hardware itself. You can visit Aurora Landscape Lighting for some examples.
  • Types Landscape Lighting:

    Speaking of hardware, there are about seven different types of outdoor lighting which includes string, garden, flood, step, bollard, spot, and up/downlights.

    • Lighting Solutions:

      Finding solutions for outdoor lighting can be tricky work. It can either be decorative lighting or something more practical, such as security.

    • Whatever your yard calls for, it’s best to know the popular options before making a purchase.

Benefits of Landscape Lighting

Notes:

  • The following are some of the benefits that homeowners enjoy from having well-lit landscaping:
    • Elevated Aesthetics:

      Without a doubt, lights dramatically elevate the aesthetics of a home at night. They highlight beautiful features like flowers and trees, staircases, water features like pools and ponds, and pathways.

    • This creates an alluring ambiance that makes you proud of your home and your guests not excited to leave.
    • As you plan how to light up your yard, consider all the eye-catching features like a pool, a statement statue, or even beautiful oak trees and spotlight these areas. Do you have a breathtaking garden, show it off with garden lights to keep your home looking amazing at night too!

    • Increased Security and Safety:

      A well-lit yard does more than just highlight the architectural lines of your home at night. It also makes your home less of a target to crimes like burglary and vandalism that mostly happen in the dark.

    • Because every nook and corner of your property is lit-up, burglars are less likely to make it to your doors or windows without being spotted.
    • In most homes with incredible outdoor spaces and patios, nighttime is entertainment time. These homeowners spend quality time with friends and family in these incredible home extensions.
    • To keep everyone safe and prevent common hazards like slips and falls near pools, everywhere should be well lit up. You can keep the whole area lit with steps and floodlights. Visit https://www.weewatch.com/9-safety-hazards-watch-around-house/ to find out more hazards to watch out for around the house.

      • Speaking of Security:

        Consider What You Need for Both Outside and In

      • It is a sad reality that we live in a world where our homes are at risk of being broken into. With the rise in home invasions, it has become increasingly important to have an alarm system installed on your property.
      • image by envato.com

      • You never know when someone might break into your house and steal something, so you do not want to be caught off guard.
      • view post: Six Advantages of Home Security Systems
    • Increased Property Value:

      Significant additions to the exteriors and interiors of homes can tremendously increase their value. Since landscape lighting is a powerful design element for improved aesthetics, homeowners can get an immediate return on their investment.

    • As a matter of fact, research has revealed that up to 41% of potential home buyers desire great outdoor lighting in potential homes.
    • With important features like landscaping, outdoor lighting, pool, and patio, homeowners can add great value to their properties. So, if there’s ever a need to sell, you’ll be most likely be cashing out big.

How Much Does It Cost?

Notes:

  • Start With Needs Analysis:

    How much you spend on this project really depends on how you want your property to look at night. Do you want everywhere lit up or would rather have only the main features of the yard and entry points like doors and windows lit up?

  • These are some of the things you’d want to consider before calling up a professional. Usually, even after reaching out to a professional, they may propose a design.
  • Let’s understand some styles you might want to consider:
    • Lighting Styles (from google images)
      Pathway modern traditional rustic
      Post modern traditional urban
      Wall modern traditional urban
      Garden modern traditional mid-century
      Path Appliance pagoda lantern style canopy
        bollard well globe
        pole right angle curved
      Other entryway solar string
  • Now Comes the Budget

    If money is not an issue, it’s usually best to work with what they have in mind as their designs are often suited to the layout of your home.

  • That said, to have a basic system installed by a professional, expect to pay between $2,000 and $2,500. Click here to see some beautiful outdoor lighting designs.
  • FINAL REMARKS

    If you consider yourself a handyman, you may have the lights installed yourself. Individual fixtures typically start at around $20, and cables cost about 70 cents per foot.

  • So, you’d be doing a bit of math to come up with an estimate. However, having a professional do the job saves you a lot of stress and also ensures everything is properly installed.
