"If you are looking for someone to install your landscape lighting there is NO ONE else you should call than Vivid. I mean, I had them install lights for me and of course it was during the day so I couldn t see the amazing magnitude of the excellent work that Nicolas and his crew had done; but let me tell you when it got dark and those lights came on I cannot even express to you how beautiful it is it s like a fairy land. I couldn t have even imagined that it would be this beautiful. I literally started crying and thanking God for something this beautiful. This is even prettier than I could have envisioned. When you hire this company you will be so pleased. I guarantee it. I don t normally write reviews, but my yard is beautiful, the work is excellent. Call Nicolas at Vivid Landscape Lighting - it will be one of the best decisions you will ever make!!"

"The two guys that came to my home called to let me know they were running late. When they got here they quickly went to work. They were able to clean our gutters in half an hour . They cleaned up everything afterwards. They were very friendly . They also told us of other services they do like Christmas lights. Sounds great. Highly recommend Window Genie!"

"Allavance was one of the best companies I've dealt with in a while. I'm not easy to please so the experience was extremely pleasant and helpful. They were thorough, professional, timely and completed tasks as stated. Andre and Kellie were my sales agents, who walked me thru everything detail of my project and stuck with the plan. They responded back to my text over a holiday weekend, not expected. I had a light transformer that I purchased, which later I discovered was defective, they came back after the project was completed and replace the old with the new. Based on my previous experience with other trade type companies, this company out performed the others by leaps and bounds. I'll definitely call them for any additional work required in the future and I've already referred them to several of my friends. This was a definite win win for all involved."

"I've had a very good experience with OCR Inc. I used them all of the time. He's my contractor. They were here last week. They've been here for the last eight months. He's incredibly trustworthy. He's very punctual and always answers his phone when you call. I couldn't say enough nice things about him. He's a great guy. He's doing landscaping and a dock outside on the lake. He's doing all kinds of stuff. He has both his own crew and other contractors that he calls in."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

Yes, animals can trigger motion-sensor lights. In fact, this is a reason why some homeowners install motion-sensor lights, to catch sneaky little critters looking through the rubbish for a midnight snack. There are sensitivities to animal detection though, so you may want to look for an option that avoids animal detection as much as possible.

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.

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—winding a strand tightly together or leaving it to hang loose in a storage bin can lead to frayed or damaged wiring. 

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

Between seasons, inspect cords for damage, replace burnt-out bulbs, and clean lighting fixtures to prevent dirt buildup. Proper storage in cool, dry conditions will extend the lights' lifespan and minimize repairs or replacements when redeployed.
