Transform Your Home’s Exterior with Outdoor Lighting
Outdoor lighting serves a critical role in enhancing your home’s security, aesthetics, and functionality. Whether you’re illuminating a beautiful landscape, securing your property, or creating a welcoming atmosphere for outdoor entertaining, professionally installed lighting can make a world of difference. At Legacy Electric, we provide expert outdoor lighting installation services to homeowners in both Las Vegas and Reno, Nevada. Our experienced electricians deliver custom lighting solutions designed to fit your style and meet your home’s specific needs.
Why Choose Professional Outdoor Lighting Installation?
Installing outdoor lighting is not just about aesthetics; it’s an essential aspect of enhancing the safety and usability of your property. Whether it’s highlighting your home’s architectural features, lighting up pathways, or improving your home’s security, professional outdoor lighting installation can help you achieve these goals safely and efficiently.
Safety and Security for Your Home
Well-lit exteriors offer more than just curb appeal; they also protect your home. Dark spaces around the perimeter of your property can become hiding spots for potential intruders. By installing security lighting and motion-activated lights, you can deter unwelcome visitors and keep your home safe. Additionally, well-placed path lighting reduces the risk of accidents like trips and falls, especially on uneven walkways or steps.
Boost Curb Appeal and Enjoyment of Outdoor Spaces
Strategically placed lighting can transform your outdoor spaces, adding depth and beauty to your home’s exterior. Whether you want to create a warm, inviting ambiance for outdoor gatherings or simply highlight your landscaping, professionally installed lighting offers a perfect solution. It adds elegance to gardens, patios, and driveways, making your home stand out while increasing its overall value.
Our Range of Outdoor Lighting Services
Legacy Electric provides a full range of outdoor lighting services, from basic security lights to advanced landscape lighting designs. Whether you need a functional lighting solution for your driveway or decorative accent lights for your garden, we offer a variety of options that can be customized to meet your needs.
Landscape Lighting
Enhance the beauty of your yard and garden with strategically placed landscape lighting. Our experts work with you to develop a plan that highlights key features like trees, pathways, or water features. Common landscape lighting options include:
- Pathway Lighting: Illuminate walkways and garden paths to enhance safety and aesthetics.
- Spotlighting: Highlight trees, statues, or architectural features with targeted lights.
- Up-Lighting and Down-Lighting: Create dramatic effects by casting light upward on trees or downward from structures to highlight landscaping details.
Security and Motion-Activated Lighting
Protecting your home and family is always a top priority. We offer security lighting installations that keep key areas of your property well-lit at night. Motion-activated lights, for instance, automatically turn on when they detect movement, providing both safety and energy efficiency. Areas we commonly install security lights include:
- Garages and Driveways
- Backyards and Side Entrances
- Perimeter Fencing
- Dark Corners Around Your Home
Patio and Deck Lighting
Extend the usability of your outdoor spaces with well-planned patio and deck lighting. Whether you’re hosting an evening barbecue or simply relaxing under the stars, the right lighting can set the mood while improving visibility. Options include string lights, wall-mounted sconces, and recessed lighting for a sleek and modern look.
Energy-Efficient LED Lighting
Switching to energy-efficient outdoor LED lighting can help reduce energy consumption while providing long-lasting illumination. LEDs are known for their durability and efficiency, using less energy and lasting up to 25 times longer than traditional bulbs. At Legacy Electric, we can install LED fixtures for everything from pathway lights to floodlights, ensuring your home remains well-lit while lowering your utility costs.

High-Quality Materials
Outdoor lighting systems are exposed to the elements, which is why it’s important to use durable, high-quality materials that can withstand weather conditions. We only use top-of-the-line fixtures and components to ensure your lighting system remains reliable and looks great for years to come.
How Indoor Lighting Enhances Your Home
Lighting is one of the most effective ways to improve the look and feel of your home. When installed correctly, indoor lighting can make spaces feel larger, cozier, or more welcoming, depending on your needs. Here’s how lighting can transform different rooms in your home:
Living Rooms and Dining Areas
Living rooms and dining areas are often multi-functional spaces, requiring a mix of ambient and task lighting. Layering different types of lighting—such as overhead chandeliers, wall sconces, and floor lamps—can create a warm, inviting environment perfect for entertaining or relaxing.
Bedrooms and Bathrooms
Bedrooms require a balance of soft, ambient lighting for relaxation and task lighting for reading or getting ready. In bathrooms, proper lighting around the vanity is crucial for grooming, while overhead fixtures provide general illumination. Our team ensures that each fixture is positioned to optimize comfort and functionality.
Hallways and Staircases
Hallways and staircases often go unnoticed, but good lighting in these areas is important for both aesthetics and safety. We recommend using accent lights or sconces to brighten these transitional spaces, making them more inviting while preventing tripping hazards.
Energy Efficiency and Smart Lighting Solutions
With a growing focus on energy conservation, Legacy Electric offers various smart lighting solutions designed to minimize energy use while maximizing convenience. Here are some ways we help homeowners improve energy efficiency with outdoor lighting:
LED Lighting
LEDs are the gold standard for energy-efficient outdoor lighting. They consume far less electricity than traditional bulbs, and their long lifespan means fewer replacements and maintenance costs. Our team installs LED fixtures for everything from porch lights to floodlights, ensuring your home stays illuminated without driving up your energy bills.
Smart Lighting Systems
Smart lighting systems allow you to control your outdoor lights remotely or set timers to manage energy usage. We can integrate smart lighting systems into your home, giving you complete control over your outdoor lighting from a mobile device or home automation system. With features like motion sensors and dusk-to-dawn timers, you can optimize when and how your outdoor lights operate, saving you money and extending the lifespan of your bulbs.
