"Brass fixtures look incredible a couple years in — patina is even and the finish hasn't peeled anywhere. Worth every penny over the plastic ones we had before."

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.
02What's the difference between low-voltage and line-voltage?+
Low-voltage (12V) is what we install for landscape and accent lighting in Manhattan — safer, more flexible, and easier to expand. Line-voltage (120V) is for permanent architectural work and we handle that with proper permits in IL.
03Can you work with my existing landscape lighting?+
Often, yes. We repair and expand existing low-voltage systems in Manhattan as long as the transformer and trunk wiring are sized correctly. We'll evaluate it for free.
04How quickly can you start?+
Most Manhattan 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.
