Landscape Lighting FAQ for Philadelphia Homeowners

How often should Philadelphia homeowners get landscape lighting?
Given Philadelphia's cold winters with freeze-thaw cycles damaging mortar, most homeowners benefit from landscape lighting at least once a year. Winter ice dam and mortar damage often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Philadelphia most need landscape lighting?
Red brick rowhouses (very common) and Twin and semi-detached homes are the most common home types in Philadelphia and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Is landscape lighting expensive to run?
Modern LED landscape lighting uses very little electricity — a typical 10-fixture system costs approximately $3–8 per month to operate, depending on your local rates and hours of operation.
How long do landscape lights last?
Professional-grade LED landscape fixtures typically last 10–15 years. The low-voltage transformers and wiring are designed to last even longer with minimal maintenance.
Can landscape lighting be expanded later?
Yes. All our systems are designed to be expandable. We size the transformer to handle additional zones, so adding fixtures in the future is straightforward.
What's the difference between landscape lighting and security lighting?
Landscape lighting focuses on aesthetics — highlighting plants, architecture, and pathways. Security lighting prioritizes bright, motion-triggered illumination. We can incorporate both into an integrated system.
