Discover how GD Services tailors lighting set-ups to your unique needs and preferences.
1. Initial Consultation
We begin by sending our team lead to assess your property and discuss your vision for your landscape lighting.
Site Assessment
Evaluating your site involves identifying key features like patios, walkways, entryways, and other focal points. During this initial step, we develop a basic idea of the lighting necessary for your space.
Your Vision
Ultimately, our design plan relies on your preferences for functionality and atmosphere. We can determine this by asking questions such as, “How do you utilize the various sections of your outdoor area?” And “How would you like to feel when using each area?”
We’ll take a walk around your yard, noting spots to highlight, areas that need more privacy at night, and security concerns.
2. Custom Design Creation
Once we have a complete understanding of your goals, we create a custom lighting design that aligns with your desires and complements your home. We collaborate with you during this process as we choose:
- Fixture types (spotlights, path lights, etc.).
- Placement for accentuating certain structures, your lawn, and other features.
- Control system specifics, including switches, dimmers, and timers.
3. Installation Day
In most cases, we can install your lighting system in just 1 day. The setup process involves activities like digging trenches for wiring to prevent damage and hide unsightly cords. We also need to set up a transformer to provide a stable power source for all fixtures.
Testing and Adjustments
An important aspect of installation day is testing and adjusting the lighting system to perfection. We’ll ensure everything works as intended, provides optimal visibility, and creates the aesthetic you want. Finally, we’ll walk you through how to operate the system.
