"I moved to my new home in Aug 18. All the landscape lights were shot. Was looking for a good landscape company to fix it and provide design input. Talked a few and was not happy with them ( price and trust). Then I came across Rodrigo and everything changed. He was prompt, professional, polite and very knowledgeable. Within about 30 mins of meeting him and discussing his thoughts on improving my landscape lights and hearing his price quote, I signed him up and did not regret it till today. He was prompt, did the job better than promised and a great job at that. I still go and admire the lights every night till i get used to them. He not only installs the lights but also provides feedback on best practices specific to your home. Simple example, after he completed the light installation, he pointed out that the 2 lamps near my front door did not match the indoor lights and landscape lights and recommended I change them to match it. He provided 2 new lights that matched my indoor and new outdoor lights and were brighter and more efficient. All in all a definite recommend. I asked him if he provided any other home services like sprinklers, etc. Unfortunately he does not do more than landscape lights, or I would have certainly signed him up for those as well."

"We have a 3 storey house and the team at Brite Idea came out and put up the lights on the house. They had to come out a second day with a longer ladder to finish up but the end job was worth the wait. We did the lights around the bushes which balanced the others beautifully. We agreed to a 3 year contract which suits us since we love having the house lit up for the holidays. I'm sure we'll continue as long as we live here."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

A motion detector light may need to be reset due to a number of technical issues. These can include faulty or misadjusted sensors and burned-out bulbs. You may also need to reset a motion sensor after an electrical surge or a power outage, as these can change a light’s settings and cause it to function differently.

There are a number of reasons that landscape lights burn out, including an incorrectly installed transformer, inconsistent voltage, and burned-out or faulty bulbs. Troubleshoot landscape lighting problems by first determining whether it’s a system-wide problem or an issue with just one light, which will help you get to the bottom of your outdoor lighting woes.

No, you should not leave LED Christmas lights up all year. While the LED lights themselves are very durable, their wiring and casings can be as vulnerable as any Christmas lights. They’re subject to drying out, experiencing cold or sun damage that causes them to crack, and even damage caused by gnawing pests. (The same is true of incandescents.) If you want your lights to last the years that they’re rated for, bring them inside after Christmas is over. 

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.

The five common types of landscape lighting are up-lighting, down-lighting, spotlights, built-in lighting, and pathway lighting.

  • Up-lighting casts light upwards from the ground, mostly for aesthetic purposes.

  • Down-lighting directs light onto the ground, lighting pathways, or outdoor space.

  • Spotlights cast direct, focused lighting in any direction.

  • Built-in lighting integrates lighting into an outdoor feature.

  • Pathway lighting illuminates walkways, increasing safety.
