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>

What causes half a string of Christmas Lights to go out?

• <div><p>If only half of your string of Christmas lights is out, it likely means that you have a broken or loose bulb somewhere along the strand. That’s why we suggest inspecting and testing each bulb to ensure it’s still tight and functioning properly. Luckily, this problem is quickly solved with a DIY fix, such as replacing the bad bulb or repairing a damaged shunt.</p></div>

What types of landscape lighting are available?

• <div><p>There are tons of different types of landscape lighting available, including the choice between solar and wired, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/incandescent-vs-led.htm">incandescent and LED</a>, and a variety of colors. Specific types of lighting include:</p><ul><li><p>Pathway lights: $50–$150 per fixture</p></li><li><p>String lights: $50–$150</p></li><li><p>Low-voltage lights: $90–$150 per fixture</p></li><li><p>Porch lights: $65–$250 per fixture</p></li><li><p>Floodlights: $75–$250 per fixture</p></li><li><p>Downlights: $100–$400 per fixture</p></li><li><p>Uplights: $100–$400 per fixture</p></li><li><p>Security lights: $ 350–$500 per fixture</p></li><li><p>Lamp posts: $400–$1,100 per lamp post</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Can a motion sensor be added to an existing light?

• <div><p>Yes! As a matter of fact, there are many sensors that add motion to existing outdoor lights. These motion sensors attach to pre-existing flood lights and other outdoor lights without any fussy and potentially dangerous electrical work. Additionally, some flood lights and related fixtures ship with motion sensors built-in. </p></div>

Q: Is there an easy way to test Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Testing tools, such as Christmas light testers, non-contact proximity electrical testers, and multimeters, all simplify the process of testing Christmas lights. However, without one or more of those tools, testing Christmas lights the old-fashioned way only works sometimes. Without testing tools, the simplest testing method is visual inspection, which may or may not yield positive results. </p></div>

The work was very well done. New drywall, replacement of moldings at ceiling and baseboard, and lighting and fan. The walls were then painted. They vacuumed the area but did not clean it. They were friendly and polite and did some extra work which we appreciated.
