The "Do It Yourself Project" Anyone REALLY Can do!! 

Why do I say anyone can do this?  Well, I should know, I am a licensed electrician.  OK! I know what you are thinking. "Yeah, sure, this guy can do it, but, I don't think I have the 'know how' to install landscape lights"  or " I surely don't want to take on a project that deals with electricity".  As a general electrical contractor, most of my work is on homes, remodeling, or commercial buildings. However, I will occasionally install landscape lighting as a customer service measure.  I have found that many homeowners seem to be intimidated by what really is a simple, "do-it-yourself" project.  So, I've created this - a no nonsense website for the average homeowner.  This website gives you easy to follow steps that will guide you through completion of your project.  It also gives you time saving common sense tips. 

Professionals can charge anywhere between $55.00 to $100.00 per fixture (depending on the fixtures).  But why pay them.  Low voltage lighting is easy to install and safe to work with.

If you have been wanting to beautify the exterior of your home with landscape lighting, think you don't have the know how, and really can't afford to have it professionally done, then THIS SITE IS FOR YOU! Read on and in about 20 minutes you will have the facts you need about Low Voltage Landscape Lighting, and be well on your way to installing YOUR landscape lighting!   

Just The Facts....Please!

Benefits of Installing Low Voltage Landscape lighting:

The most obvious reason to install landscape lighting is your home becomes the "jewel" of the neighborhood at night.  But, did you know landscape lights have also been shown to lower crime since they illuminate the dark areas around your home, thereby, limiting possible hiding areas for criminals.

They are low voltage, and therefore are safe around children and pets! 120volts are reduced to 12volts via the transformer or power pack.

Installation requires NO special tools.

They are very easy to layout and install.  The cable requires only minimal burial, is self sealing, and can be easily relocated if you change your mind or your landscape.

The lights are virtually maintenance free (except for an occasional bulb change) and quite durable.

CAN BE EASILY INSTALLED BY ANYONE!!

In Just 5 EASY steps you'll have all the necessary know-how to install your low voltage lighting and the self- satisfaction of a job well done!  Proceed to the first of the five links Determining Where to begin.
