"(TL/DR: We are happy with the work Cory did, and I would recommend him for your landscaping needs.) The theme here is "all's well that ends well." Cory is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, and he's very agreeable to work with. He and his crew work remarkably quickly, too, and the quality of work is very good. The job was not without its hiccups, though. Cory is not a proactive communicator, and that caused us some grief along the way. Without boring you with every detail, Cory and his crew got to work on Day 1, and by the end of Day 2, they had built an entire retaining wall on a line different from the one we'd talked about. He told me he had lain the foundation on Day 1 and, when he didn't hear from me, assumed it was correct and moved on to building the wall on Day 2. Problem is, he didn't inform me that I needed to review his Day 1 work (I never imagined that he would do the work differently than what we talked about when he met me for the initial estimate), or that he would interpret no word from me as acceptance of his work. The result was that he had to deconstruct the wall and then rebuild it along the correct line, which I'm sure was a lot of work, but he did it and did so cheerfully. This kerfuffle was unfortunately repeated, in essence, with the landscape stairs--building, followed by no word from him, followed by silence from me, followed by a discrepancy between what he built and what I wanted. This was especially frustrating, because, after the wall incident, he said he would take photos of the unfinished stairs and send them to me for approval before completing them. But, all's well that ends well: he and I met to discuss the issue, and then he and his crew redid the stairs to my satisfaction. To sum up, my experience with Cory is that he will make judgment calls, build, and hope it works out right rather than consulting you to see what you want and doing it that way (or telling you it can't be done that way for a particular reason). If you have a drawn plan that Cory can refer to, you may not have these issues, and perhaps I should have insisted on drawing him a plan when he didn't insist on having one before beginning work. Or, if you don't work during the day, you could oversee the work and give feedback as it's happening to prevent any issues from arising. But don't expect Cory to be proactive about communication. So, after all that, do I regret getting Cory to do the work? Absolutely not. He got it done quickly, did it well, did it for an excellent price, and went the extra mile to make sure we were happy. And we are. We are very excited about the way things turned out, and we can't wait to use the back yard space that Cory helped us create. I would absolutely recommend him."

Outdoor lighting plan and installations FAQs

Landscape lighting has a higher price point than indoor lighting because it's built to withstand harsh weather conditions. These systems use durable materials like cast brass and water-resistant wiring to withstand temperature extremes, rain, and snow. Many landscape lighting systems also come with a lifetime warranty, which adds to the cost but provides lasting peace of mind.

Many homeowners find that LED landscape lights are worth the investment. LED landscape bulbs offer greater energy efficiency and lower long-term costs compared to incandescent bulbs and sodium lamps. They use between just six and 15 watts, offering long-term savings on energy bills and bulb replacements while producing ample illumination.

Outdoor lights don't use a lot of electricity when you select energy-efficient options. The energy usage depends on the type of fixtures and the system design. For example, many holiday lights consume about five watts per unit, but larger installations can increase total energy consumption. By carefully planning the number of fixtures and their placement, you can maintain efficiency while ensuring effective illumination.

The expected lifespan of landscape lights is determined by the quality of the materials and installation methods. Landscape lights offer a set lifespan where hardwired systems withstand conditions for 10 to 25 years, and battery-powered or solar-powered units last for five to 15 years. Proper maintenance and installation extend longevity while ensuring consistent illumination.

The time necessary for landscape lighting installation depends on the size and complexity of the project. Professional installers can complete installation for hardwired systems within one to two days, whereas battery-powered or solar-powered setups only take several hours. Hiring a qualified professional is the best way to ensure the project is done safely and efficiently.
