With the spring season just a couple of weeks away, now is a great time to begin making your outdoor landscaping come to life! New flowers and plants, cleaning the grill, and having your friends and family over to entertain. To really accentuate your landscaping appearance – and safety – and allow you to enjoy the outdoors even longer once the sun goes down, a professional outdoor lighting installation can provide so many benefits for you and your home.
Landscape Installation
Summertime may be the very best time to enjoy the hot weather and to sunbathe, barbecue, or go swimming, but in the spring you don’t have to keep everyone indoors when the sun dips and nights cool off. On those warmer spring nights, having proper lighting installed around key areas of your outdoor landscape will keep your friends and family comfortable and retain that homey feel, even when the night comes. When it comes to outdoor lighting, there are many options. To cover larger terrain throughout your yard, floodlights and spotlights provide both safety and a convenience in the dark, not to mention the added security of having your yard well-lit day or night. Strategically installing smaller path lights around any hardscapes or garden areas are not only atmospheric, but ideal for added safety for families with younger children — plus, you can pick and choose the number of path lights you feel most comfortable with, so it’s also an economical way to add some erridance to your landscape without breaking the bank.
Mobile Options
If economic concerns play a part in your outdoor lighting options, or if you would like the added mobility of switching out the placement of the lights, lanterns and string lights are always a fun idea — particularly for entertaining. Both lanterns and string lights come in almost endless varieties of colors, sizes, shapes, and styles, making them easy to blend and match with your outdoor motif or existing hardscapes. Plus, you can always change-up the areas being lit: with lanterns, you’ll be able to try a few different spots on your deck or patio to find where your yard is in most need of better lights, and with string lights, you can always switch them out during the year for seasonal options.
