Lifetime craftsmanship guarantee
If our workmanship fails in 52136 — a loose connection, a sloppy splice, a fixture that wasn't mounted right — we come back and fix it. Lifetime, in writing.
Hidden wiring as a standard
Cable buried to local code depth, trunk lines routed away from beds you'll dig in, and every junction tucked out of sight. That's the baseline in Cresco.
In-person lighting design
Every Cresco project starts with a free in-home consultation after dark. You see exactly where each fixture will go and what it will illuminate.
What Cresco homeowners say.
"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."
"Years on, zero failed fixtures. They came back once to swap a transformer — covered under warranty, no hassle."
"Permanent holiday lighting was worth every dollar. No more December ladder. The app is straightforward and the colors are sharp."

Ask Us Anything · (213) 752-393501What color temperature do you recommend?+
For most Cresco homes we install 2700K — a warm white that flatters brick, stone, and landscaping. We'll demo 3000K side-by-side at the consultation if you want to compare.
02Can you light just the front yard?+
Absolutely. Plenty of 52136 projects are front-of-house only — façade up-lighting, path lights, and a couple of tree accents. Quote scales with scope.
03How much does outdoor lighting installation cost in Cresco?+
Most Cresco projects in 52136 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.
04Will trenching tear up my lawn?+
Minimally. We use a vibratory plow on most Cresco lawns, which slits the turf and pulls cable through without sod removal. Re-sod is included on the few runs where we have to dig.
