Low-voltage LED lighting
Outdoor lighting for homes in Colorado Springs, Castle Rock and the towns between. Low-voltage LED systems that light the steps, show off the landscape and let you use the yard after dark.
Why placement matters
You've invested in the patio, the stone and the plants, and for half the year it's dark by dinner. Lighting gives you those hours back, and it makes steps and grade changes safe to walk.
The craft is restraint. A few well-placed fixtures that wash a wall, graze a tree or mark a step look better than a row of bright lights, and they keep glare out of your eyes and your neighbor's windows.
What we do
Each type does a different job. Most yards use three or four.
Low fixtures that mark the way without lighting up the whole yard.
Built into steps, seat walls and caps so every change in height is visible.
Fixtures at the base of trees, columns and stonework to show their shape.
Light from above, in a tree or under an eave, for a soft, natural wash.
Task and ambient light where you cook, eat and sit.
Timers, photocells and smart transformers so the lights run themselves.
How we do it
The best time to add lighting is while the yard is being built. It can be added to a finished yard too.
We look at how you use the yard at night and what deserves attention: steps, trees, stone, the path to the gate.
Each fixture gets a job, and the transformer is sized with room to add more later.
Low-voltage cable is run and buried, with sleeves under walks, and fixtures are set and secured.
Final aiming and adjustment happen at night, because that's the only way to see what the lighting really does.

From our clients
“They are very knowledgeable, the quality of work is top tier, they have great vision for design, and they completed their work before their estimated finish date (but did not sacrifice on quality nor attention to detail). This is the second time we have utilized their services.”

“John was on-site every day with his crew. They worked incredibly hard from 7:00 a.m. until nearly 7:00 p.m. John is also extremely professional when it comes to communication, contracts and making sure everyone is on the same page throughout the project.”

Pricing, explained
Every quote we write breaks the project down so you can see where the money goes. These four things move the number the most.
The biggest single factor, along with the quality of the fixtures.
Distance from the transformer, and what the cable has to cross.
Lighting installed during a build costs less than cutting it into a finished yard.
A simple timer or app-controlled zones and dimming.
Common questions
It's safe around people, pets and water, it uses very little power, and LED fixtures last for years without bulb changes. The cable can be buried shallow and moved later if the yard changes.
Very little. A full LED landscape system typically uses less power than a couple of old indoor light bulbs.
Yes. Cable can be run through beds and under lawn with very little disturbance. Getting under an existing patio or walk takes more work, which is why we add sleeves on every new build.
Not when it's designed well. We use warm, shielded fixtures aimed at your landscape, not the sky or the property line. Many HOAs and towns have rules about glare, and good design meets them.
