"Robert at Artium replaced a ceiling light for us. The old light was at least 50 years old and had been installed incorrectly. Robert explained what he had to do, took the old light down, repaired the insulation on a couple of the old wires and installed the light correctly. He is very friendly and courteous. The work was done when promised and his rate is very reasonable, probably on the low end. We will use him on our next electrical projects."

"The pathway lights look terrific and function very easily with an automatic timer. Jeff and his team were very efficient installing the lights. They are currently working on installing a new patio and they are working diligently to ensure the prep for the patio is done correctly. We are very pleased with their professionalism and eye for detail. They are a pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to call Jeff for any of our landscape needs."

"Started good, finished bad. They left the job site for 5 days without communicating. Left a pile of mulch in my driveway during this dead time, so I could only get one car out of my garage. They also left all of the patio furniture, grill, trash cans, etc. in the yard while working and gone. Killed the grass and got mud on everything since it rained. Killed some of our plants while working on the patio. Charged full price for lighting even though they didn't fix or lay new in the back (like they said they would). Unhooked old back yard lighting and never fixed (half was working before job). At the end, they didn't put anything back in it's place on patio... we had to move all patio stuff back."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

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

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.

The average cost to install outdoor or landscape lighting is around $4,000, with most projects ranging from $2,000 to $6,000. The total cost can vary widely depending on several factors, including the number of fixtures, design complexity, and the type and quality of the lights used, such as wall sconces, pathway lights, or lamp posts. Other factors that influence the price are the square footage of the area being lit, the amount of electrical work needed, any required excavation or trenching, and local permitting costs. For specific types, you might pay around $100 for pathway or string lighting and up to $700 for lamp post lighting.

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.

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.
