Landscape Lighting
Illuminate Your Nights - Bring Your Yard to Life After Sunset!
Our Landscape Lighting Design Process
Our ultimate goal when designing your landscape lighting system is to accentuate your landscaping and create the right ambiance that you're after. Our design process involves choosing the types of lights and the fixtures to be used, determining the exact placement and orientation of the lights, selecting the appropriate lighting levels and color temperature to create the desired visual effect, and lastly what type of control system to use.
Here are the steps involved in our landscape lighting design process:
- Identify the goals and objectives: Before starting the design process, it's important to identify the purpose of the lighting. Is it for security, a dynamic night time look, or both? What specific features in your landscape do you really want the lighting to highlight or accentuate?
- Survey the site: Next, we walk around the site and take note of the existing features, such as trees, shrubs, pathways, and structures. We need to consider how these features will be affected by the lighting and how they can be used to enhance the overall design.
- Choose the types of lights and fixtures: There are many different types of landscape lighting fixtures to choose from, including spotlights, path lights, and floodlights. We need to consider the style and theme of the landscape, as well as the type of bulbs and controls that will be used.
- Determine the placement and orientation of the lights: We will decide where the lights will be placed and how they will be oriented. We'll need to consider the height and angle of the lights, as well as the distances between the fixtures to ensure we get the best coverage. As your landscape matures, we may even need to readjust them in the future, so this must be considered as well.
- Select the lighting levels and color temperature: We need to consider the desired ambiance and mood of the space, and choose the appropriate lighting levels and color temperature to create the desired effect.
- Test the lighting: Before finalizing the design, it's important we test the lighting to ensure it creates the desired effect. This may involve adjusting the placement or orientation of the fixtures, or adjusting the lighting levels and color temperature.
- Install and maintain the lighting: Finally, once the design is complete, the lighting fixtures can be installed and properly maintained to ensure they function properly and look their best. This may involve cleaning and replacing bulbs and fixtures as needed.
The biggest deciding factor with your new landscape lighting is going to be your overall budget. We have no intention of showing you something or presenting ideas you can't afford, we can work with your budget to come up with a beautiful landscape lighting scheme you and your family can enjoy.

Here's What They Say
Scenic landscaping has been handling all my garden , lawn , fall cleanup , retaining wall work , and all my snow removal including driveway,sidewalk,walkway to front door and patio. They have been working with me for two decades and I am always happy with the results of every project we have done also including many plantings and reseeding the yard. The staff and owners are always respectful and mindful of their work and clean up afterwards. I have faith that everything will always be done well and professionally and that is why I have not changed from using them for anything I need done. Also I am very particular about everything that is being done and they never disappoint. You will be very satisfied and very happy with the work that the team completes for you. Sincerely Paris
Scenic takes care of the grounds in our complex. We recently hired them to trim the arborvitae by our patio. They did a really nice job and it looks very professional.
Scenic guys were great! Dave and Enzo were always responsive, patient, and flexible. I changed my plan a couple of times and they just went with it without a hitch! I appreciated their professional advice that worked out perfectly for my project. They build two patios, with fire pit and outdoor kitchen along with beautiful landscaping. I am very happy!!!
After receiving multiple quotes and meeting with several contractors, we decided to use Scenic to replace our patio and add a Cobblestone border with stone fill. They provided a timeline for the work and arrived promptly, cleaning-up each day, and communicating throughout the process. Our neighbors (many, since we are in a condo) commented about how meticulous and professional the team was. In fact, several members of the Board even wished to seek a bid to have them handle our landscaping! They couldn't believe how thorough the team was. I even noticed the team leafblowing the grass where they had driven their trucks in order for it to stand back up again and look untouched. We look forward to reaching out for future work and possibly sealing our patio in the spring.
Scenic Landscaping does excellent work! We love our new patio! We are also very happy with tree removal/ brush clean-up in the back of our yard. They are always professional and clean everything when they are done!
Recently had Scenic install a new patio and walkway for our home. We were very happy with the work, it looks great and the guys did a excellent job. We have also used them for snow removal and other landscaping projects. Would definitely use them again and we recommend them to all our family and friends.
I couldn't be happier with the results! The guys worked in sweltering heat for 5 days and still completed my landscaping and new patio in that short time- amazing! Scenic will definitely be my "go to" for any future landscaping and maintenance.
