Outdoor Lighting — built right.
Lighting is what makes a property look like it cost what it cost — at night. Path lights for safety, uplighting on canopy trees, wall washes on limestone, accent on water features, and architectural lighting on the home itself. We design lighting layers for the way the property is actually used, then install in low-voltage durable bronze or brass fixtures wired through a smart controller.
Local conditions.
Hill Country properties benefit from dark-sky-aware fixtures — light directed down, not bleeding into the night sky. Comal County has some dark-sky considerations around Canyon Lake and the rural corridor; we lean into shielded fixtures and warm-color LED.
How we build it.
- Lighting walk at dusk to see what the property actually needs.
- Design layers: path safety, ambient, focal, architectural.
- Fixture selection — bronze or brass body, warm 2700-3000K LED, dark-sky-friendly shielding.
- Low-voltage transformer sized to fixture load + 30% future capacity.
- Wiring routes hidden in bed lines or under hardscape edges.
- Smart controller for schedule, dimming, and zone control.
- Aiming session at dusk — every fixture aimed and adjusted in person.
- Walkthrough with the homeowner and care notes.
