What Sets Our South Barrington IL Outdoor Lighting Installation Apart

A Professional Process from Outdoor Lighting Design to Reveal

The process of lighting up South Barrington IL homes with us is smooth and easy. We plan everything carefully to give your home the perfect glow.

Design-First Approach

We begin with a complimentary on-site consultation where we walk your property and listen to your goals. Our design team blends your vision with professional lighting techniques to create a tailored plan that enhances beauty, improves safety, and anticipates future expansion—should you choose to add more lighting later.

Premium Fixtures with Smart Options

We install only high-performance fixtures from trusted manufacturers like Haven Lighting, Clarolux, Sterling Lighting, and Lumien—including select lines that are proudly American-made and engineered to withstand harsh Midwestern climates. Many of our systems include smart features such as app control, multi-zone customization, dimming, and full RGB color options—perfect for homeowners who want both elegance and flexibility.

Minimally Invasive, Lawn-Friendly Installation

Where others cut corners, we core drill through stone, pavers, and hardscaping when needed to make the installation professional and like it was done when the home was built. We hide wiring and ensure fixtures are placed where they’ll create the best lighting effect. Our goal is always to make your lighting look like it was built into your home from day one. We use durable, waterproof crimp connections—not wire nuts—to deliver long-lasting reliability and protect against moisture, even through Chicagoland’s harshest weather conditions.

Smart Timing, Effortless Control

Your lighting system is equipped with a digital timer or smart controller to automate on/off functions based on your schedule or sunset/sunrise times. Want full control from your phone? Our app-integrated systems allow you to adjust zones, brightness, and themes with just a tap or even automated for those with a busy lifestyle.

Lighting Reveal & Final Walkthrough

Once your system is installed, we return at night for a personalized lighting reveal. This is where we fine-tune beam angles, adjust fixture placements, and walk you through your new system. If applicable, we’ll assist with app setup and show you how to manage everything from your phone. For long-term peace of mind, we also offer annual maintenance plans to keep your system looking and performing its best year after year.

Frequently Asked Questions About Outdoor Lighting Installation in South Barrington IL

Have questions? You’re not alone. Below are answers to the most common questions South Barrington IL homeowners ask before moving forward with a professional outdoor lighting installation.

Will the installation damage our landscaping?

No. Our team hand-buries all low-voltage wiring using trenching tools. We’re extremely mindful of your plants, lawn, and garden beds. We also use PVC sleeves at mulch/rock to grass transitions to protect wires from landscapers’ tools and ensure long-term durability.

What types of lights do you install?

The most common fixtures we use include spotlights (uplighting), path lights, and wash lights. However, our team designs and installs a full range of outdoor lighting types—customized to your property’s layout and visual goals.

Do you offer app control or smart lighting systems?

Yes. We offer multiple smart control options, including dimming, zoning, color-changing LEDs, scheduling, and full phone/tablet app functionality. If desired, we’ll help you set everything up during your final walkthrough.

What is the typical investment?

Our lighting packages start around $2,500, with most installations averaging $7,000. We offer both phased installation plans and financing to make premium lighting more accessible.

Can you light specific areas like a pool, pergola, or pond?

Absolutely. We regularly install lighting for water features, patios, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, stairs, and more. If it’s outdoors and part of your landscape or architecture—we can light it beautifully.

What lighting brands do you work with?

We install premium fixtures from trusted manufacturers including Haven Lighting, Clarolux, Sterling Lighting, and Lumien. We recommend specific products based on your design goals, preferences, and budget.

Is everything covered by a warranty?

Yes. Most of our fixtures and transformers come with a lifetime manufacturer’s warranty. LED components typically carry warranties ranging from 2 to 10 years depending on the product line.
