Brass and copper, always
We don't install plastic or painted aluminum fixtures in Normal. Brass develops a patina, copper darkens beautifully, and both outlast the warranty period by a wide margin.
In-person lighting design
Every Normal project starts with a free in-home consultation after dark. You see exactly where each fixture will go and what it will illuminate.
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.
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.
What Normal homeowners say.
"Free design wasn't a sales pitch — it was a real plan. We added two more zones the following year and it integrated seamlessly."
"They redesigned what a previous installer had butchered in our front yard. Three years later it still looks better than the day they finished."
"Permanent holiday lighting was worth every dollar. No more December ladder. The app is straightforward and the colors are sharp."

Ask Us Anything · (213) 752-393501How quickly can you start?+
Most Normal 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.
02Do you serve all of McLean County?+
Yes — Outdoor Home Lightings installs throughout McLean County and adjacent areas. We service Normal (61761) and surrounding cities listed below.
03Will outdoor lighting raise my electric bill?+
Barely. A typical 200-watt LED system in IL runs about $4–$8 per month even if it's on every night. LEDs draw roughly 1/7 the power of equivalent halogen fixtures.
04Are 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.
