Firefighter owned and operated
: Serving Tampa Bay, from Sarasota to Citrus County
A beautiful property deserves to shine after the sun goes down. We design it, install it, and keep it running.
- Lifetime warranty on new installs
- 10% off for military and first responders
What we do
Outdoor lighting, start to finish
One crew handles the whole job, from the first walk-through to the service call five years later.
-
Design
We walk the property with you and plan where the light goes.
-
Install
Clean, buried wiring and fixtures set to last in Florida weather.
-
Maintain
Scheduled visits so the system looks as good in year five.
-
Repair
Dead fixtures, bad transformers and wiring faults, found and fixed.
-
Landscape and hardscape
Uplighting on oaks and palms, path lights along the walk, and soft light on pavers, walls and the front of the house. Warm white or full color.
-
Seasonal and permanent holiday
Lights along the roofline that stay up all year and change from your phone. Warm white most nights, holiday colors in December, team colors on game day.
-
Lanai, patio and bistro
Sconces on the pool enclosure, string lights over the patio, and enough light to actually use the lanai after dark.
-
Decks, docks and fence
Low-glare light on steps, dock edges and fence lines, so you can see where you are walking and the yard still looks good.
Smart color lighting
Pick a color. Change it from your phone.
Our color systems run warm white most nights and switch to anything you want when the occasion calls for it. No ladders, no timers to reset, no swapping bulbs.
- Control each fixture on its own or in groups
- Full color or warm white, your call
- Custom effects for parties and holidays
- Schedules that turn on at dusk and off when you say
- Works with Alexa and Google
- App for iPhone and Android

Maintenance plans
Keep it looking like the day we finished
Sprinklers, storms and salt air wear on outdoor lighting. A plan gets someone out to check, clean and adjust it before anything goes dark.
