Typically a new system ranges between $150-$250 a fixture. The size and number of transformers, style of fixtures, number of fixtures, the length of the lighting “Run” and the existing landscape all impact the cost per fixture.

Lighting Trends In 2025?
Colorful lighting is expected to be a popular trend going into 2025. Warmer tones are also trending for general landscape illumination.
Safety?
It’s important to light walkways, paths, pool areas, steps, and stairs to ensure your property is well lit.
Low-voltage lighting?
Low-voltage lighting systems are generally safer to install and maintain because they have a lower risk of electrical shock. They are also more cost-effective, energy efficient, and flexible than high-voltage systems.
Spacing?
Landscape path lights should generally be spaced six to eight feet apart, but they can be spaced closer for a more vivid effect.
Focal points?
When choosing landscape lighting, consider the mood you want to create and the function of the light. Walk around your property and choose focal points, such as a garden or fountain.
What are the benefits of landscape lighting?
Landscape lighting can increase property value, improve curb appeal, and provide safety. It can also help deter intruders and make it easier for neighbors to see people around your property.
How should I calculate the wattage needed for my transformer?
Add up the wattage rating of each light and multiply by 1.25. For example, if you have 40 lights with a wattage rating of 3 watts each, you would need a transformer with a minimum rating of 150 watts.
How can I maintain my landscape lighting?
Clean the internal reflector and lenses to remove dirt and debris. Trim back vegetation that might be blocking the light. Check for damaged fixtures, such as corrosion, dents, or cracks.
