Service Details

At Solid Ground Electric, we install landscape lighting that makes your property safer, more attractive, and easier to enjoy after dark. A well-planned outdoor lighting system can highlight your home’s best features, improve visibility along walkways and driveways, and add security around entry points, patios, pools, and yards. We design and install lighting systems that look great, work reliably, and hold up to the weather.

Our landscape lighting installation service starts with a careful look at your property and your goals. Some customers want a soft, elegant look that highlights trees, garden beds, stonework, and architectural details. Others want brighter lighting for pathways, outdoor living spaces, parking areas, or commercial exteriors. We help you choose the right layout, fixture placement, beam spread, color temperature, and control options so the final result fits your space and your budget.

We install many types of outdoor lighting systems, including low-voltage landscape lighting, line-voltage exterior lighting, LED landscape lights, pathway lights, spotlights, flood lights, uplighting, downlighting, deck and step lights, patio lighting, garden lighting, accent lighting, driveway lighting, security lighting, and exterior building lighting. Whether you need a simple front yard lighting upgrade or a full custom outdoor lighting system for a large residential or commercial property, our licensed electricians can handle the job safely and correctly.

Low-voltage landscape lighting is one of the most popular options because it is energy efficient, versatile, and ideal for many homes and businesses. These systems typically use a transformer to reduce standard voltage to a lower, safer operating voltage for outdoor fixtures. We size and install transformers properly, plan the wiring layout, and make sure the system provides consistent performance across the property. We also install line-voltage lighting where needed for higher-output fixtures or specific site conditions.

LED landscape lighting is another smart choice for many properties. LED fixtures use less energy, last longer than many traditional bulbs, and require less maintenance over time. They are available in a range of styles and color temperatures, from warm and inviting to crisp and bright. We help customers choose lighting that creates the right mood while still delivering the visibility and performance they need.

Our installation process focuses on both appearance and long-term reliability. We take care to route wiring properly, protect connections from moisture, and place fixtures in locations that provide the best visual effect without creating glare or dark spots. We also consider fixture durability, weather resistance, and service access. Outdoor electrical work needs to be done right from the start, and our team follows proven installation methods to help prevent issues down the road.

Landscape lighting can do much more than improve curb appeal. It can help reduce trip hazards on stairs and walkways, make it easier to navigate outdoor spaces at night, and add a layer of security around the property. Entry doors, gates, garages, and dark corners can all benefit from better lighting. For commercial properties, exterior lighting can also improve customer access, employee safety, and the overall appearance of the site after business hours.

We can install lighting controls that make your system more convenient and efficient. Depending on your needs, we can add timers, photocells, smart controls, dimming features, and zoning options. These controls can help your lighting turn on automatically at dusk, shut off at a set time, or allow easier adjustment for different areas of the property. A properly controlled system improves convenience and helps manage energy use.

Every property is different, which is why we do not treat outdoor lighting like a one-size-fits-all service. We look at landscaping, hardscaping, elevation changes, traffic flow, focal points, electrical supply, and how the space is used at night. We can work with existing outdoor lighting systems, replace outdated fixtures, or build a new system from the ground up. If your current lighting is uneven, dim, damaged, or unreliable, we can evaluate it and recommend practical improvements.

At Solid Ground Electric, we bring the same attention to detail to landscape lighting that we bring to all of our residential and commercial electrical work. Our licensed electricians are trained to install outdoor electrical systems safely and to code. We believe in quality workmanship, clear communication, and dependable service from start to finish. We stand behind our work and want every customer to feel confident in the finished result.

If you are thinking about adding landscape lighting to your home or business, we are ready to help. Whether you want to improve curb appeal, brighten outdoor living areas, increase safety, or create a custom exterior lighting design, Solid Ground Electric can deliver a professional installation built for long-term performance. Contact us today to discuss your landscape lighting installation project and schedule a consultation.

Our Landscape Lighting Installation Process

At Solid Ground Electric, we make landscape lighting simple, safe, and built to last. Our process is designed to give you a clean installation, dependable performance, and outdoor lighting that looks great night after night.

On-Site Lighting Consultation

We start with a visit to your home or property to walk the landscape, discuss your goals, and identify key areas for accent, pathway, security, and architectural lighting. We review fixture options, transformer sizing, voltage needs, and layout details, then provide a clear estimate and realistic timeline.

Custom Design and Installation

Once approved, we map out fixture placement, low-voltage wiring routes, and transformer location to deliver balanced coverage and clean curb appeal. Our licensed electricians complete the installation with safe connections, proper load calculations, and neat workmanship that protects your landscaping and electrical system.

Nighttime Testing and Walkthrough

After installation, we test the full system at dusk to adjust beam angles, check voltage drop, confirm timer or photocell settings, and fine-tune the overall look. Before we leave, we walk the property with you, answer questions, and make sure you are fully satisfied with the results.

Why customers trust Solid Ground Electric

Real feedback on reliable service, clean work, and safe electrical results

"My water heater stopped working, I called two other companies I have used in the past 2 years. One of them came out and looked at the water heater, and said that they couldn't fix it until the electrical was fixed. Then they gave me an estimate of $4000. Then I called another company I used too use and their rates went up, they now charge $225 an hour with a minimum of two hours. Which means you're actually paying two hours even if it's only an hour of work. So I looked online and found Solid Ground Electric in Auburn. Matthew answered the phone, he came the same day too look at it. He looked at the water heater and the wires, and said it'll be about $500, which is very honest and reasonable. So he came out the next day too fix it and it wasn't the water heater at all, it was only the wiring and a bad connection. The other company wanted to fully replace my water heater, without even looking at it too see what the problem was and they wanted $4000. Matthew was very prompt and polite and honest. He fixed it the next day and he only charged me $554. I choose to give him an extra $50 for being so honest. Call Matthew if you want honesty and integrity, and good work done."

Judy S.

"Very reasonable rates and Matt is honest to a fault. I did not feel like I was being extorted for the work being done and he found ways to get the work done without adding on extra or unnecessary work that typically bigger companies do to make bank off of people. He also took the time to explain things when I asked questions and he seems to enjoy sharing knowledge of his profession! - Joshua Brisco"
