The technology surrounding landscape lighting is changing. Innovations are hitting the market all the time – increased efficiency, lower costs, and longer lifespans. While low-voltage lighting is not new, per se, it does offer its own unique benefits and advancements. For example, as a business, you’re most likely searching for a cost-effective lighting solution. Commercial low-voltage lighting will save you money, increase value, and provide safety and security for your clients. Before deciding, it’s important to inform yourself.

Commercial Design

Designing a landscape lighting system for a commercial property is vastly different from a residential setting. Commercial systems are typically designed for customers, more so than the business. Your customers need to see the sidewalk, steps, parking lot, and lawn. Without proper lighting, someone could slip and fall.

When designing the system, the technician needs to account for electrical power and voltage fluctuations. Currently, the most used lighting system utilizes 12-volt low voltage, since the conventional system is unable to meet the commercial requirement. A low-voltage system uses smaller sources of light. You won’t even require major renovations to your landscape or building.

Being Selective

Like a homeowner, you have the opportunity to select which lighting fixtures you want for your landscape. Not being selective may lead to numerous complications down the road. You must understand that not all light fixtures are designed using the same level of quality or materials.

For example, a plastic or aluminum fixture will fade and crack over time. The material will also allow moisture into the electrical system. When it comes to a commercial system, do not skimp. You pay for what you get.

Just like your car or plumbing system, it is important to perform regular maintenance on your outdoor lighting system to ensure the whole setup works properly when you need it the most. You see, an outdoor lighting system is an investment in the safety, security, style, and quality of your entire house. You can feel more secure by deterring criminals, enhance the appearance of your yard, or simply walk a little more confidently in the early morning hours to the car. Of course, none of that is possible unless you perform proper maintenance on the whole system.

Proper Maintenance

If it has been more than six months since you last had maintenance or service performed on your outdoor lighting system, it is time to put in the effort. You should have the entire system checked by a professional at least twice per year to ensure each light and all of the wiring are functioning as intended. If you fail to perform adequate maintenance, your timers may fall out of sync or bulbs may become burnt out. This increases the risk of slip and fall accidents or a home burglary from taking place. A lack of lighting is a significant risk to your entire home.

What to Watch For

You know it is time for proper maintenance if you begin to notice lights that are burnt out, lamps that have been uprooted, the lighting system turning on at the wrong time of the day, or entire strings of lights failing to operate at all. These problems should be addressed as soon as possible. Bring in a professional who understands outdoor lighting systems to solve whatever issues and set up a maintenance schedule.

Your home and property are probably pretty important to you. Day in and day out, this is where you spend most of your time. It makes sense for you to put value back into the property that you value so much; that’s where landscape lighting can come in.

The Benefits of Landscape Lighting

First and foremost, we will say that adding landscape lighting can brighten your property. We don’t mean that just literally. Sure, adding this lighting can illuminate your lawn at any hour of the day. However, it can also add value to the property. With landscape lighting, you are able to bump up the property value of your land, which can prove beneficial should you need to sell your home later in the future.

Additionally, when you brighten your property, you add a level of security that is not seen at every home. With this, you’re allowing your lawn and landscape to be visible all during the night. We guarantee that if someone wants to break into a home, they are not going to approach the brightest lit house on the block.

When your home is lit up in the evening hours, you also add a layer of visibility. Your neighbors can clearly see what’s going on at your property, even while you’re gone. Should that burglar still try to break into your home, even though the lawn is illuminated, he is also going to be seen clearly by the neighbors looking out for your home.

Not Having Landscape Lighting Is Risky

When you refuse to seek out landscape lighting, you’re essentially taking a risk. You’re allowing your home to be vulnerable to external threats. With lighting, you illuminate your lawn and walkway for family and friends, and you shy away the unwanted visitors.

Landscape lighting plays a significant role in making your exterior space an inviting place to spend a romantic evening. Blooms Landcare can install outdoor lights in strategic areas of your landscape design to enhance the beauty of your outdoor space. Try these “bright” ideas for the perfect backyard environment!

Setting the Mood

Using outdoor lighting in your backyard space is the easiest and most cost-effective way to highlight the features of your garden or landscaping that you want seen. Depending on the lights that you choose, you can also set a specific mood for when the sun goes down.

The professionals at our Dallas and Fort Worth landscaping company can easily guide you through the design technique referred to as layered lighting. Layering the lights on your deck, in your garden, or as a part of any landscaped area creates an atmosphere filled with serenity and romance.

Creating the Perfect Design

But there’s no point in landscape lighting if you have nothing to illuminate! Our landscapers are experts in their field and can help you choose the best plants for the space you wish to create. Whether you’re looking for shady trees, pops of crazy color, or anything in between, we can help you.

But you can also add more than just plants to create the perfect romantic landscape.

• Placing a comfortable bench or a bistro set in a softly illuminated garden provides the ideal place for intimate conversation and romantic dining.
• Adding an outdoor bed or double chaise to your landscape design is a also certain way to add romance to your landscape and will look great on an enlarged or covered patio.
• Water features are also great in any landscape design. Adding underwater or submerged lighting to a water garden will softly illuminate any plants and fish in the water garden. Plus, the sound of lightly bubbling water is instantly soothing.

An evening picnic beside of a lighted water garden would be extremely relaxing and wonderfully romantic.

Planning Your Romantic Evening

Once you have created the perfect outdoor retreat, you will certainly want to spend time there. One way to enjoy your romantically designed outdoor area is to designate one evening a week as a night for a romantic dinner or picnic under the stars with that special person in your life. Be creative with your plans! Have a gourmet meal on the patio, enjoy a picnic in the garden, or have a wine and cheese night under the stars. But remember to keep it simple so that the focus remains on the romantic aspect of the evening.

Outdoor Lighting to Highlight the Colorful Displays

In addition to landscaping your backyard environment, we can also make it safer and more attractive with the addition of outdoor lights. Soft lights illuminating the deck make it easy to enjoy the area in the evening, and spotlights illuminating flowerbeds allow you to enjoy the brilliant color even after the sun starts setting in the evenings.

A Safe and Attractive Property

Soft landscape lights illuminate the property without creating extra shadows around trees or other structures. You can view the property from inside your home to ensure that everything is in order and safe. Criminals will not be as likely to target your house because the lighting makes it harder for them to hide.

Lighting also makes your property safer for family, friends, and other guests when they come to visit. Not only do they add attractiveness to your yard, but the added visibility along garden paths and paved walkways makes it easier to navigate the property without fear of falling.
