"Jeremy and Joe from Nichols Electric were amazing. They came out the same day, designed and installed lighting and outlets for my garage and exterior. They even came back and moved some outlets for me in my new house. They were extremely pleasant to work with and helped me understand every step of the process. I'm definitely going to use them again on my next project."

"Chris was great! He installed an outdoor fan for us which did not come with a remote, but he immediately had a solution to place the switch plate and had the water proof parts in his truck. He also troubleshooted some minor issues for us and gave us some great ideas for landscape lighting and timed outdoor lighting. I will be hiring him again soon!"

"Jeff responded quickly to my initial inquiry, made an appointment that was convenient for me, was on time and completed the work in a timely manner. I was not familiar with malibu lighting maintenance and I appreciated Jeff showing me how to set my lights myself, change the bulbs, etc. Jeff's rates were also most reasonable. I would highly recommend him."

"He was extremely quick getting the project underway and he and his crew did an excellent job! I will be calling him back for other more extensive landscaping projects... I was VERY impressed with his attitude, flexibility and project completion. Gregg Novotny and the entire Foothills Landscape team did a great job landscaping our backyard! Gregg worked within our schedule and phased in the landscape plan according to our wishes and coordinated with our concrete contractor. He promptly returned our phone calls and emails, and he listened to us when we had changes and concerns. For example, when we made a mistake about the types of trees we wanted, Gregg listened to our concerns and went out of his way to make sure we got what we wanted. His team is very professional and Gregg is wonderful. We couldn't have asked for more from a landscape company! We definitely would work with him again."

"All of the outlets quit working in my 3 bathrooms plus another one in my bedroom had to be replaced. Collin from Influx Electric took care of the repairs. I was very pleased with his work. He arrived right on time and quickly diagnosed the problem. He explained to me what needed to be done, made a trip to Home Depot to get the needed parts and then proceeded to complete the fixes. His charges were quite reasonable. I would definitely recommend his services and use him again."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

The cost to repair outdoor lighting typically ranges from $100 to $400. The final price depends on the severity of the damage, the specific issue, the type of lighting system, and the parts needed. Some repairs are priced per fixture, averaging $100 to $300, and there may be additional fees if the lighting is difficult to access.

No, you should not leave LED Christmas lights up all year. While the LED lights themselves are very durable, their wiring and casings can be as vulnerable as any Christmas lights. They’re subject to drying out, experiencing cold or sun damage that causes them to crack, and even damage caused by gnawing pests. (The same is true of incandescents.) If you want your lights to last the years that they’re rated for, bring them inside after Christmas is over. 

There are tons of different types of landscape lighting available, including the choice between solar and wired, incandescent and LED, and a variety of colors. Specific types of lighting include:

  • Pathway lights: $50–$150 per fixture

  • String lights: $50–$150

  • Low-voltage lights: $90–$150 per fixture

  • Porch lights: $65–$250 per fixture

  • Floodlights: $75–$250 per fixture

  • Downlights: $100–$400 per fixture

  • Uplights: $100–$400 per fixture

  • Security lights: $ 350–$500 per fixture

  • Lamp posts: $400–$1,100 per lamp post

Modern outdoor light fixtures are waterproof and weather resistant, and, provided they’re installed correctly and by a professional, the fixture and wiring can last for 20 to 30 years or more. The lifespan will depend largely on the quality of the fixture. The lifespan of the bulb will depend on the type of light you install:

  • CFL bulb (for sustained use): 15,000 hours

  • Halogen bulb (mostly for security): 2,000 hours

  • HID bulbs (for security): 12,000 hours

  • Incandescent bulb: 1,000 hours

  • LED bulb: 50,000 hours

Installations include new light fixtures, upgraded panels, fixed outlets, and tracked wiring continuity.
