Benefits of Outdoor Lighting

Here are 3 ways exterior lighting can benefit your home:

Outdoor Lighting Accents

Show what makes your house unique and highlight the focal points of your exterior! Put some uplights under bushes and shrubs to create an enjoyable, glowing effect. Spotlight some architectural details and other points of interest. Add some wall grazing to make even your walls pop! These are a few of the many ways lighting can increase your home’s aesthetic. It can also add value to the property itself, especially through curb appeal.

Curb Appeal

The warmth of a bright home. There’s no feeling quite like pulling up to your home and getting a welcoming feeling by what you see. Sure you can have some front door lights, maybe a couple path lights, but that’s normal for many houses. Houses with a nice lighting scheme can create a bright, warm atmosphere. It can make you want to stay at home and even get your neighbors to want to come too! You can also have motion sensor lights to increase the safety of your property.

Safety

Falling hurts, and it’s even worse when it’s in the dark. Keep yourself, your family, and your guests safe with outdoor lighting. Light the deck or patio stairs, install some pathway lights around the house, yard, and water feature. You can even light up your water feature for aesthetic and safety reasons. These can also ensure people won’t accidentally walk through a natural area and step on your plants. Safety’s one of the best reasons to install outdoor lighting for any home.
