"JASON, Our tech made sure I understood exactly what the problem was and educated me how to recognize the previous electrical mis wiring. Jason was personable, professional, knowledgeable and efficient! I would hire this company and ask for Jason again! He solved our electrical problems, made sure we were happy and showed us what to look for with any other electrical concerns!!! Thank-you, Jason !"

"Tamara helped remodel two bathrooms, one powder bath in 1 day! She was amazing helping pick paint and wallpaper and found all my fixtures 1/10 of the price of expensive designer versions. She was prompt to all my questions, and exceeded all my expectations. I am excited to have her help with a few more rooms soon. 6 stars for she and her crew"

"E&L Electric were on time, professional, and went above and beyond my expectations. Their cost is reasonable. As the homeowner, I started my basement finishing project in Nov. During the project, I made numerous changes to the original design and blue prints that caused delays. Lenny and his team at E&L Electric were patient, professional, and understanding. Their electrical installation work was done to code and passed every inspection. He brought to my attention some things in the construction phase that would not pass inspection. He helped me correct those issues. I recommend Lenny and E&L Electric to anyone and everyone."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

The average cost to install outdoor or landscape lighting is around $4,000, with most projects ranging from $2,000 to $6,000. The total cost can vary widely depending on several factors, including the number of fixtures, design complexity, and the type and quality of the lights used, such as wall sconces, pathway lights, or lamp posts. Other factors that influence the price are the square footage of the area being lit, the amount of electrical work needed, any required excavation or trenching, and local permitting costs. For specific types, you might pay around $100 for pathway or string lighting and up to $700 for lamp post lighting.

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

Common outdoor lighting issues include faulty or exposed wiring, burnt-out or damaged bulbs, and broken or faulty fixtures. Regular maintenance can help prevent many of these problems.

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

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.
