Built for Novato weather and tested for California homes.
Right-sized transformers
We size every transformer for 70% load. That leaves headroom for voltage drop, future expansion, and the LED inrush current most installers ignore.
Permits and code, handled
Any line-voltage work in CA gets a permit and an inspection. We coordinate both — you don't have to call the city.
Owner on every job
An owner walks every Novato property before quoting and is on-site for the install. You aren't handed off to a subcontractor halfway through.
Smart-home integrated by default
Every system we install in CA runs on app control, voice control, and dawn/dusk scheduling with no extra hardware.
What Novato homeowners say.
"App control just works. Schedules adjust to sunset automatically and the holiday scenes are genuinely fun, not tacky."
"Clean install. They re-sodded every trench line and you can't tell anyone dug in the yard. Cleanup alone separated them from the last contractor."
"The in-person design was the difference. They walked the property with us at night and showed exactly where every fixture would land."

Ask Us Anything · (213) 752-393501Are permits required?+
Low-voltage landscape lighting in CA generally does not require a permit. Line-voltage exterior circuits and any new sub-panel work do — we pull those when needed and coordinate with the inspector.
02How much does outdoor lighting installation cost in Novato?+
Most Novato projects in 94949 fall between $3,500 and $12,000, depending on fixture count, system complexity, and whether you need permanent holiday lighting. We provide a written design with itemized pricing at the free consultation — no obligation.
03Will outdoor lighting raise my electric bill?+
Barely. A typical 200-watt LED system in CA runs about $4–$8 per month even if it's on every night. LEDs draw roughly 1/7 the power of equivalent halogen fixtures.
04How quickly can you start?+
Most Novato projects begin within 2–3 weeks of contract signing. Permanent holiday lighting in October/November books out further — we recommend getting on the calendar by September.
