"Dazzle lighting made sure that my backyard looked the best it could, and gave a professional opinion of what to do. I had ideas and they were professional with saying we could do that but it may not be the best choice for the space, and offered another opinion. I was not disappointed and was so thankful they did! They displayed some ideas and left demos so we were confident with our decision too. Never questioned what we were paying for and these guys always over delivered!"

"Keith and his team at Walter Electric are incredible. We had them do a ton of work on our house: new lighting in closets, LED lighting in two rooms, install new track lighting and ceiling fans, move switches and outlets around, and install hard wired lights in the bathroom and the front of the house. All of the work was done with precision craftsmanship and they left our house cleaned up nicely each day. Keith provided great guidance and recommendations along the way and was responsive to answer our questions. Would highly recommend Walter Electric!"

"Victor responded right away to repair a leaking pipe in our yard. While on the premises, he took care of a few other minor issues. He was professional, thorough and kind. His fee was fair. I'll be scheduling him to return after the holidays to complete a larger project for us. I highly recommend Victor's company, Grand Oaks Landscaping, Inc for any irrigation or landscaping project!"

"Before working with Sarah Kaplan Design, my living room felt disconnected and hard to make sense of. I had ideas, but nothing felt cohesive or functional. After working with Sarah, the transformation is remarkable. She created a layout that instantly made the room feel larger, more balanced, and more modern. Her guidance on furniture, tile, and overall flow turned a space I tolerated into a space I truly love. Sarah listens, collaborates, and elevates every detail. If you?re looking for a designer who can take your vision and deliver a beautiful, thoughtful ?after,? she?s the perfect choice."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

If you need to visually inspect your Christmas lights to determine which are good and which need replacement, there are a few things to look for. First, look for discoloration, such as a dark spot or two on the inside of the glass. The spot is an indication of a burnt filament. Also, look for missing filaments, cracked bulb glass, and broken sockets.

A motion detector light may need to be reset due to a number of technical issues. These can include faulty or misadjusted sensors and burned-out bulbs. You may also need to reset a motion sensor after an electrical surge or a power outage, as these can change a light’s settings and cause it to function differently.

Pool lights are designed to be safe by protecting swimmers from electrocution. These lights are made with waterproof fixtures and seals to prevent contact with the water.

Electrocution from pool lights is still possible, but rare. Faulty wiring or broken lighting equipment can make lights unsafe, so it’s important to replace lights as needed and have an electrician inspect and upgrade the wiring.

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

It’s fair to be concerned about handling pool lights or wiring in a pool filled with water. But fortunately, pool lights and swimming pools are designed to make it easy and safe to replace the lights without needing to drain the water. Instead, you can turn off the electricity to the pool as a safety precaution, unscrew the pool fixture, pull it up and out to the side of the pool, then change the bulb.
