"Craig was great. He didn't try to up sell me on lights. In fact, he listened to what I wanted and then gave his assessment and tweaked my idea to something more grand. The end result was amazing and regal."

"Atlantic Lighting and Irrigation installed both an irrigation system and accent lighting on two trees. From Ian Chaput, the estimator, to the crew, everyone has been professional and timely. Damage was done to my system by an outside party excavating the lot next to me. Atlantic returned and made the necessary repairs. I have already recommended Atlantic Lighting and Irrigation and will continue to do so."

"David was very nice, he set the appointment and then called to let me know he was on his way. My ceiling was 20ft high so other estimates were $350 & #325 to install. Dave's was $150. Also the light bulbs I had in my old fan were old and needed replacing, but I didn't have anymore. Dave suggested LED bulbs. I bought them the next day and he came back and changed them for me. He is a great guy. I highly recommend him."

"My experience with Raising the Bar was amazing, I will definitely keep them at the top of my list for future projects! I had light fixtures installed above my breakfast bar as well as a couple of light switches replaced. The lights were installed beautifully, and he even suggested to install a dimmer switch to control them as well as my dining room (both fan and lights!). This was all done in a very timely manner and well priced, I am extremely happy with the friendly and professional service. Highly recommend!"

Lighting questions, answered by experts

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.

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

Before investing in motion sensor lights, there are a couple of disadvantages worth noting. For starters, they’re not as reliable as other forms of lighting. Motion sensor lights can be accidentally triggered by pets or wind, which can become a nuisance after a while. The opposite situation can occur, too, where they don’t turn on when you need them to. 

Yes, outdoor lights and receptacles should be on a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) for safety. The outdoors is considered a wet location where GFCI protection is generally required. A GFCI enhances safety by automatically tripping and shutting off the circuit if it detects an imbalance, which protects against electrocution and reduces the risk of an electrical fire. While it is the safest approach for all outdoor electrical components, specific requirements can vary depending on the type of light (e.g., pool lights), its location, and local electrical codes. For guidance tailored to your specific situation, it's best to consult a professional electrician.

Installing outdoor lighting can increase your home’s value by up to $2,500. The average ROI on landscape lighting is around 50%, but how much your home increases depends on the market, the type of lighting, and whether you have a strong strategy for your landscaping lighting project. LED and solar lighting may offer the highest ROIs.
