Outdoor Lighting Installation across San Diego and San Diego County

San Diego County housing runs from pre-war bungalows and mid-century coastal homes to large inland subdivisions and backcountry properties. Around San Diego, salt air near the coast, older two-prong outlets and panels that were never meant for today's loads are everyday findings.

Outdoor Lighting Installation cost in San Diego

Outdoor lighting installation cost in San Diego depends on the number and type of fixtures, how far power has to travel, and whether trenching is needed. Low-voltage landscape systems are priced by fixture count and transformer size. Line-voltage security and patio lighting is priced by the circuit and the run. You get a written price either way.

Outdoor Lighting Installation questions from San Diego customers

Can you add outdoor outlets at the same time?

Yes, and it is the cheapest time to do it. See outlet installation for GFCI and weather-resistant options.

Will the lights come on automatically?

We install photocells, timers, motion sensors or smart controls so lighting runs on a schedule or reacts to movement. See smart home wiring.

How do fixtures hold up in San Diego weather?

We use wet-rated fixtures and sealed connections. Near the coast we favor brass, copper or marine-grade finishes that resist corrosion, and in hot inland areas we avoid plastics that turn brittle in the sun.

Do you repair existing landscape lighting?

Yes. We trace cut wires, replace failed transformers and convert old halogen systems to LED. For interior work, see lighting installation.

In customers' words

Twelve recessed lights and two dimmers in the living room, done in a day with no patching needed. The layout advice alone was worth the call.

Tom and Linda W.Recessed lighting

They ran the 50 amp circuit and disconnect for our spa and coordinated the inspection. Neat work, and they showed up when they said they would.

Luis C.Hot tub wiring

I called about one dead bathroom outlet. The electrician found a failed GFCI upstream, replaced it, tested every outlet on the circuit and was gone in under an hour.
