What Is Landscape Lighting?
Landscape lighting combines permanent LED systems with professional design to illuminate your property beautifully. From path lights and garden spotlights to tree uplighting and accent fixtures, these systems enhance curb appeal and safety year-round. Modern installations in Tennessee now utilize high-efficiency, low-voltage technology that withstands regional humidity and seasonal shifts. By integrating smart controllers, homeowners can manage their entire exterior ambiance via smartphone, scheduling architectural highlights or security zones with ease. Whether you are accenting a historic Nashville estate or a contemporary Knoxville mountain home, professional-grade LED components provide a durable, energy-conscious solution that outlasts traditional halogen alternatives while delivering superior color rendering.
Why gET Landscape Lighting?
Property owners love landscape lighting because it transforms outdoor spaces with stunning visual impact: beyond mere aesthetics, it extends the usability of patios and decks well into the evening hours. A well-lit exterior creates a warm, inviting atmosphere for entertaining guests while simultaneously acting as a powerful deterrent to intruders. By eliminating dark corners and highlighting walkways, these systems provide peace of mind and essential safety for families navigating their property at night.

Our Landscape Lighting Services
Path & Walkway Lighting
Path lights guide guests safely along driveways, garden walkways, and front entries. We use low-voltage LED fixtures spaced evenly to create a warm, consistent glow without harsh bright spots. Path lighting also adds curb appeal that is visible from the street, making your home feel welcoming the moment someone pulls into the driveway.
Uplighting & Tree Lighting
Uplights placed at the base of trees, columns, or walls cast light upward to create dramatic shadows and depth. This technique works especially well on large oaks, ornamental trees, and textured stone or brick facades. We angle each fixture to match the height and spread of the feature it highlights.
Garden Spotlights & Accent Lighting
Spotlights draw attention to focal points like flower beds, sculptures, fountains, and retaining walls. We also install accent lighting along garden borders and planting beds to define the edges of your landscape at night. For properties with water features, submersible LED lights bring ponds and fountains to life after sunset.
Deck, Patio & Outdoor Living Lighting
Outdoor living spaces need functional light for cooking, dining, and entertaining. We install step lights, railing lights, and overhead string lighting on decks and patios. For covered outdoor kitchens or pergolas, recessed downlights provide even task lighting without glare. Ask us about our smart outdoor lighting systems for app-based control.
Pillar & In-Ground Lighting
Pillar lights mount cleanly at column bases and post tops, while in-ground fixtures flush-mount into hardscape and lawn areas. Both use 24V Smart LED technology — bright, low-profile, and controllable from your phone. Ideal for driveways, entrance gates, and garden borders.
SOFFIT & UNDER-EAVE LIGHTING
Pillar lights mount cleanly at column bases and post tops, while in-ground fixtures flush-mount into hardscape and lawn areas. Both use 24V Smart LED technology — bright, low-profile, and controllable from your phone. Ideal for driveways, entrance gates, and garden borders.
Why Choose Aurora Sky Lighting for Landscape Lighting
Aurora Sky Lighting focuses exclusively on outdoor lighting. We do not split our attention between interior remodels, general electrical work, or other trades. Every project we take on is an outdoor lighting project, which means our crews install these systems daily and know the materials, techniques, and common challenges inside and out.
We use commercial-grade LED fixtures rated for outdoor conditions in Tennessee, where humidity, rain, and temperature swings put equipment to the test year-round. Our lighting designs are built to last, not just look good on installation day.
We also offer other outdoor lighting services that pair well with landscape lighting. Many of our clients add soffit and under-eave lighting to highlight rooflines, or install permanent Christmas lights so their home is ready for the holidays without climbing a ladder each November. For businesses, we design commercial outdoor lighting systems that improve safety and visibility across parking areas, signage, and building exteriors.
Our Landscape Lighting Installation Process
We keep the installation process straightforward so you know exactly what to expect from the first call to the final walkthrough.
On-Site Design Consultation
We visit your property to evaluate the layout, identify key features, and discuss your vision. We walk the grounds at dusk when possible so we can see existing light and shadow patterns firsthand — the most honest picture of what your space needs.
Custom Lighting Plan
Based on the consultation, we create a detailed lighting design that maps every fixture location, wire run, and transformer placement. You approve the plan before any work begins — no surprises, no scope creep.
Professional Installation
Our crew installs all fixtures, runs low-voltage wiring, and connects transformers. We bury cable lines below the surface to keep your landscape clean and protect wiring from damage. Most residential installations take one to two days depending on fixture count.
Final Walkthrough & Adjustment
After installation, we do an evening walkthrough with you. We adjust fixture angles, brightness levels, and timer settings until every detail looks right. We also walk you through basic maintenance so your system stays bright for years to come.
Landscape Lighting Options
Aurora Lighting provides tailored landscape lighting solutions to suit different needs: we specialize in everything from discreet garden accents to dramatic, permanent roofline installations. Our expert team evaluates the unique topography of your Knoxville or Nashville property to ensure every beam serves a purpose. We offer custom-engineered systems including color-changing LEDs, automated astronomical timers, and weather-resistant architectural fixtures designed to showcase your home’s best features while maximizing energy efficiency and longevity.

Landscape Lighting Frequently Asked Questions
How much does landscape lighting cost?
The cost of a landscape lighting system depends on the number of fixtures, the size of the property, and the complexity of the design. A starter package for a front yard with path lights and a few uplights typically falls in a different price range than a full-property system covering front, back, and side yards. We provide a detailed quote after the on-site consultation so there are no surprises. Every quote includes fixtures, wiring, transformers, installation labor, and a final walkthrough.
How long does a landscape lighting installation take?
Most residential landscape lighting installations take one to two days. Larger properties or projects with extensive hardscape work may take up to three days. We schedule installations in advance and confirm timing before we arrive so you can plan around the work. The design consultation and planning phase typically takes about a week before installation day.
Do LED landscape lights really last that long?
Yes. The LED fixtures we install are rated for 50,000 hours or more of use, which translates to roughly 15 to 20 years at typical dusk-to-dawn run times. LEDs also use a fraction of the energy that halogen fixtures consume, so your monthly electricity cost stays low. If a fixture ever fails prematurely, we handle the replacement.
Will landscape lighting damage my lawn or garden beds?
No. We use low-voltage wiring that is buried just below the surface, and our crews take care to minimize disruption to plantings, mulch beds, and turf. Most homeowners cannot tell where the wiring runs within a week or two after installation. Fixtures are mounted on stakes or flush-mount bases that sit cleanly among plants without disturbing root systems.
Can I add more lights to my system later?
Absolutely. We design every landscape lighting system with future expansion in mind. Transformers are sized to handle additional fixtures, and wire runs are routed to make it easy to add new zones. Whether you want to light a new patio, extend path lighting along a garden addition, or add tree uplights as your landscaping matures, we can expand the system without starting from scratch.
