From May to September, most Chandler families wait for sundown to use the backyard. Good lighting makes that possible, with light where you sit and clear edges on every path and step.
Outdoor lighting also changes how the house reads from the street. Palms, mesquite and palo verde trees, agave and the stucco front all take on shape at night instead of disappearing into the dark.

Most lighting plans use a few of these, depending on the yard and how you use it. A front yard in Chandler might only need a lit path and two uplit palms.
A backyard built for summer evenings usually needs more. Think soft light at the patio, the fire pit and the walk to the gate, without glare in anyone’s eyes or light spilling next door.
Low lights along a path so you can see the edge and every turn.
Light aimed up into palms and trees to give the yard height at night.
Enough light to eat and talk without glare in your eyes.
A clear, lit path from the driveway to the front door.
Cactus and succulents lit from the side to show off their shapes.
A soft wash on the stucco that gives the house some depth after dark.
We can look at the yard with you and point out the spots that would make the biggest difference, at no charge.
We map every path, tree and seating area on the yard plan, then decide which ones get light and from which direction. That keeps the look even and the fixture count sensible.
The plan also shows where the wire will run. In a yard with rock, pavers and caliche underneath, knowing the route before digging saves a lot of work and keeps the finished yard intact.
The exact method varies with the yard and the fixtures you choose. The order stays the same from the first walk to the final adjustment.
Every landscape lighting job in Chandler starts with how you use the yard at night. It ends with the light landing where it should, on the path, the tree or the patio table.
We look at what you want to see and use at night.
Each light marked on the plan and the ground.
Lines buried or tucked along beds and edges.
Lights installed and connected.
Adjusted once it is dark so the light lands right.
Lighting shows off whatever it lands on. The best results come when it is designed along with the patio, the planting and the walkways.
That way the wire runs go in before the rock and pavers go down. A fire pit, a pergola or a desert bed full of agave all give the lighting something worth pointing at.
Lighting is quoted after we see the yard. These are the four things that move the number on an outdoor lighting job.

These are the questions we hear most from Chandler homeowners about lighting paths, trees and patios. Placement and adding lights to a finished yard come up the most.
Yes. It takes more care to run wire around existing rock, plants and pavers, but it can be done without tearing the yard apart.
Usually along paths and steps, on a few feature trees or palms, around the patio and at the front entry. We help you pick the spots that matter most.
We aim fixtures down and inward where needed so the light stays on your property and out of windows.
Yes, and it is the easiest time. The wire goes in before the rock and pavers, so nothing has to be dug up later.
The common ones are path lights, uplights for trees and palms, wall wash for the house front and area lights for patios. Most yards use a mix.
Yes. We light yards in Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe, Queen Creek, Ahwatukee and San Tan Valley as well as Chandler.

Aimed into trees, palms and big plants to give the yard height.
