Adding strategic outdoor lighting is the last part of any landscaping project, but many people don’t realize just how important this lighting is. There are three main reasons why we always suggest that our clients incorporate strategic outdoor lighting to their landscape designs.
Safety
Often, our landscaping projects include a new deck, patio, or retaining wall that have a set of stairs. Whether these stairs are in the same place they’ve always been or somewhere completely new, we always recommend that our clients add outdoor lighting to highlight these aspects of your landscaping. Not only will the lighting show their beauty, but it will help keep your and your guests safe. Nothing spoils the fun of relaxing in your new yard than tripping on the stairs.
Showcase Key Aspects Of Your Yard
On both your end and ours, a lot of work went into making your yard look beautiful and you should be proud of it. Incorporating strategic outdoor lighting into your landscaping project can help you to highlight your favourite elements of your new yard. Whether it’s a newly planted tree, a pergola, or anything else, subtle, low voltage lighting is a great way to show off the work you’ve done.
Make Your Yard An Extension Of Your Home
As Canadians we know that the warm weather season is short, which means that you want to spend as much time outdoors as possible. Adding lighting to your landscaping project allows you to comfortably use your yard at night from May to September by creating an outdoor room for entertaining and relaxing. Our team can help you position your lighting to maximize the use you get from your yard when the sun goes down.
