Built for Island Lake weather and tested for Illinois homes.
In-person lighting design
Every Island Lake project starts with a free in-home consultation after dark. You see exactly where each fixture will go and what it will illuminate.
Hub-style wiring connections
Pierce-point connectors are the #1 reason landscape lighting in 60042 fails by year three. We use waterproof hub connections on every run.
Brass and copper, always
We don't install plastic or painted aluminum fixtures in Island Lake. Brass develops a patina, copper darkens beautifully, and both outlast the warranty period by a wide margin.
Smart-home integrated by default
Every system we install in IL runs on app control, voice control, and dawn/dusk scheduling with no extra hardware.

Ask Us Anything · (213) 752-393501Are permits required?+
Low-voltage landscape lighting in IL 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 quickly can you start?+
Most Island Lake 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.
03Can you work with my existing landscape lighting?+
Often, yes. We repair and expand existing low-voltage systems in Island Lake as long as the transformer and trunk wiring are sized correctly. We'll evaluate it for free.
04How long does installation take?+
A standard residential install in 60042 takes 1–2 days. Larger architectural projects with permanent holiday lighting can take 3–4 days. We schedule around your weather window.
