How much does professional outdoor lighting cost in Austin?

Every property is different, so we don’t quote a flat rate. Cost depends on the size of your space, the number of fixtures, the type of lighting (landscape, architectural, security), and whether you want smart controls or automation. We offer free consultations where we walk your property, talk through your goals, and provide an itemized estimate with no surprises. Most homeowners are pleasantly surprised by how affordable a custom system can be, especially with energy-efficient LED technology.

We serve homeowners and businesses across the greater Austin metro area, including Cedar Park, Round Rock, Pflugerville, Georgetown, Lakeway, Bee Cave, West Lake Hills, Rollingwood, Dripping Springs, Buda, Kyle, Steiner Ranch, and surrounding communities. Whether you’re in the heart of downtown or out in the Hill Country, our team knows the local terrain, architecture, and climate conditions that affect outdoor lighting performance.

Most residential projects take one to two days from start to finish. Larger properties or commercial installations may take a bit longer depending on the scope. We handle everything from trenching and wiring to fixture placement and system programming. Our team works clean and efficient, and we always walk you through the finished system before we leave.

We do. Our automation systems let you control your entire lighting setup from your phone, set schedules, adjust brightness, and even trigger motion-activated zones. We integrate with platforms like Alexa and Google Home, so your outdoor lighting works right alongside your other smart home devices. It’s one of the most popular upgrades we install.

Landscape lighting focuses on your outdoor environment: trees, gardens, pathways, water features, and flower beds. Architectural lighting highlights the structure of your home or building, things like columns, facades, eaves, and entryways. Most of our projects combine both to create a balanced look that enhances your property from every angle. During your consultation, we’ll recommend the right mix based on your property’s features and your priorities.

Yes. We exclusively use LED technology, which uses up to 80% less energy than traditional bulbs and lasts 10 to 15 years under normal use. Combined with smart timers, dusk-to-dawn sensors, and zone controls, most of our clients see less than a few dollars added to their monthly electric bill. We’re committed to sustainable design without compromising on brightness or quality.

We do. We offer ongoing maintenance packages that include fixture cleaning, bulb replacement, system inspections, and seasonal adjustments. If something isn’t working right, our team can diagnose and fix the issue quickly. We also handle upgrades if you want to add new zones, swap fixtures, or integrate smart controls into an existing system.

DIY kits can work for simple accent lighting, but professional installation gives you a safer, longer-lasting, and more visually impactful result. Our team includes certified electricians who handle all the wiring, transformer sizing, and voltage calculations. We work with permit partners when needed and we’re fully insured. Beyond the technical side, a professional design creates depth, balance, and contrast that’s hard to achieve with off-the-shelf products. Most of our clients tell us the difference is night and day.
