What is the lifespan of landscape lighting?

• <div><p>High-quality landscape lights that are hardwired and properly maintained can last for 10 to 25 years or more. You’ll usually get a longer lifespan from soffit lights and wall-mounted lights that aren’t directly exposed to the elements or prone to damage from foot traffic or vehicle traffic. Solar-powered and battery-powered lights often won’t last as long, but you can still expect a lifespan of five to 15 years.</p></div>

Is professional landscape lighting worth it?

• <div><p>Professional landscape lighting is typically worth the investment to improve your home’s curb appeal, safety, and security. Additionally, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/smart-landscaping-tips-can-increase-home-value.htm">landscape lighting can add value to your home</a>, creating a brightly-lit outdoor space that you can use after dark. According to the National Association of Realtors, landscaping lighting can add <b>$2,500</b> to your home’s value. On average, this type of home improvement has a <b>50%</b> return on investment.</p></div>

Q: What is the best way to power outdoor lights?

• <div><p>The easiest and best way to power your outdoor lights is with the use of outdoor outlets. Most building codes now require exterior outlets in homes, so you likely already have outdoor outlets available to plug into. However, you can have these outlets installed if your space doesn&rsquo;t currently include them.</p></div>

Q: How can I prevent Christmas lights from becoming damaged?

• <div><p>You can take a few steps to prolong the life of your holiday lights. Make sure to replace burnt-out bulbs as quickly as possible to avoid overloading the rest of the circuit and knocking out more lights. Before packing them up each year, plug each strand into the wall to confirm everything is still working. Wrap the lights carefully back into their original packaging or something similar&mdash;winding a strand tightly together or leaving it to hang loose in a storage bin can lead to frayed or damaged wiring. </p></div>

Q: Should outdoor lights be on GFCI?

• <div><p>Yes, the outdoors is one of the areas where GFCI is always required. The receptacles used outdoors must have a ground-fault circuit interrupter, or GFCI, for safety reasons. Not only does GFCI make it safer for operation even in wet locations, including bathrooms, outdoors, basements, and other areas, but also they&rsquo;ll automatically trip if there&rsquo;s an imbalance in the circuit, keeping you safe from electrocution and decreasing the risk of an electrical fire.</p></div>

They replaced the lights okay but lost original tire knob and replaced it with another one that did not match the other three tires. They took three hours just to do a simple job and they told me it would be finished in 45 minutes. If I knew it was going to take that long, I would have left the...

Chris did an amazing job. I had a green picked out for the kitchen and he suggested to wait on the second coat to see how the color looked at different times of the day, excellent advice because the color did not look good at night with the lighting. Another shade was chosen (at no cost) and...
