Q: How is outdoor lighting professionally repaired?

• <div><p>Professional repairs involve diagnosing issues, replacing components, rewiring, or repositioning fixtures to restore optimal performance.</p></div>

Q: What types of outdoor lighting are available?

• <div><p>Options include pathway lights, spotlights, and smart lighting systems. Choose based on function and aesthetics.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between wet-rated and damp-rated lighting?

• <div><p>While wet-rated and damp-rated lighting is designed to handle contact with moisture, there&rsquo;s a difference between the two. Wet-rated lighting is safety-rated to be placed in areas with direct exposure to water, including your shower. Fixtures classed as wet-rated are made with waterproof seals to protect the filament and other electrical components from water and moisture. </p><p>Damp-rated fixtures can be used in places with some moisture contact, but not direct exposure. They don&rsquo;t have the same waterproof seals used in wet-rated fixtures. Damp-rated lighting can be used on your bathroom ceiling or along a wall outside of your shower.</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>
