You’ve invested a lot in creating the perfect landscape to complement your home. Why stop enjoying your yard when the sun goes down? Install outdoor lighting to add drama and function when darkness settles in, along with an added level of security for your home. A little light will maximize your ROI and your enjoyment.

For decades, Landscape East & West has created dynamic lighting plans and installed perfect combinations of lighting types to create landscapes that sparkle day and night. Whether you’re admiring your yard from the inside looking out or from a front row seat on your patio, keep the beauty alive by lighting it up.

Why Professional Outdoor Lighting Matters

Adding professional outdoor lighting helps maximize the investment you’ve made in your landscape by allowing you to enjoy your yard at any time of day or night, transforming it into a true outdoor living area. That additional use, compounded with the beauty that light brings to a space, can also boost your curb appeal and property value.

Beyond aesthetics, outdoor lighting permits safer passage throughout your property while also deterring intruders and unwanted pests. A lighted landscape enhances safety and security.

Types of Outdoor Lighting We Install

Uplighting

Add drama and interest to your yard by shining a light on a focal point like a tree, fountain, or architectural feature.

Downlighting

Provide a safer pathway while creating more texture and depth with subtle lighting along walls or under benches.

Water Feature Lighting

Use light to capture the reflective quality of your water feature, like ponds, streams, or fountains, showcasing movement and highlighting shimmer.

Task Lighting

See what you’re cooking, playing, or reading by installing task lighting in strategic locations that shine a light on the task at hand but retain the mystique of darkness.

Accent and Mood Lighting

Bring proper light for the moment with string lights, colored lights, a brilliant chandelier — keep the party going or spark a romantic evening.

Why Choose Professional Over DIY Solar

There is an abundance of solar lighting options on the market today to match the growing eco-consciousness of consumers. While popping some solar lights into the ground to light pathways and highlight plants might be well-intended, the Portland climate makes solar an unreliable choice.

To truly protect the investment in your landscape, professional systems offer a better solution. The lighting you choose should match the quality of your landscape and be a product that’s designed to last for years with minimal maintenance.

Outdoor lighting should seamlessly blend into your landscape, matching the original intent of the design and highlighting the beauty of the space. Who better to make that happen than a landscape design professional?

When done correctly, outdoor lighting should be designed to accommodate easy future additions of both new lights and potential landscape changes and extensions. A professional lighting designer will know how to add light now and plan for the future.

LED Lighting: Our Sustainable Choice

Energy efficiency benefits all of us, which is why we prefer to use LED lighting for our landscape projects at Landscape East & West. Longer-lasting and lower energy LED lights not only mean less energy and waste, but also more money in your pocket. Plus, the glow from LED outdoor lighting shines the best light on your beautiful landscape.

Investment Considerations

When you install outdoor lighting in your landscape, the benefits begin immediately.

Extended Enjoyment: Spend time in your yard and enjoy the outdoor view from inside your home, both day and night.

Increased Property Value: The added wow-factor, along with practicalities of safety and security, will boost your home’s curb appeal

Seasonal Flexibility: Professional outdoor lighting can be adjusted to match your landscape needs throughout the seasons, highlighting entertainment areas in summer and lighting dark corners in winter.

Future-Proofing: Our outdoor lighting systems are expandable, meaning that as your landscape evolves through time, changes will be simple to accomplish.

Our Portland Lighting Process

On-Site Design Assessment- At your home, we’ll walk through the yard to explore areas for optimal fixture placement, address safety concerns, assess electrical needs, and consider the views from inside as well.

Custom Design and Estimate- Our designers will create a detailed lighting plan with a timeline and estimated budget that outlines how each element will enhance and protect your landscape.

Permits and Code Compliance- If your project requires Portland building permits, we’ll take care of the paperwork and ensure that we meet safe and proper electrical installation standards.

Professional Installation- Our team installs low-voltage, energy-efficient LED systems, and we offer the option of timer integration for automated operation. We leave your landscape as we found it, but better than before.
