When you think of landscape lighting for your yard, you may think of those little lights that stick in the ground and light up pathways or flower beds. While those are certainly an option and are very pretty, those are just one kind of light you could use in your landscaping.

Your Santa Monica electrician is here to tell you the possibilities are endless when it comes to creating a visually appealing yard during the nighttime hours. The Electric Connection has the staff needed to complete the smallest lighting job to the biggest. Let your imagination run wild. Lights can be strategically placed to highlight certain areas of your yard like a flower bed, garden, statues or water features.

Lights can be placed on timers to save you the trouble of turning them off and on. This also ensures your home is well-lit, even if you are away. Lights around your home are an excellent safety feature that homeowners truly appreciate. If you have lots of shrubbery, which is an excellent spot for people and animals to hide in, it is a good idea to illuminate the dark area with some kind of landscape lighting.

You can choose between soft, subtle lights that light up the area under a tree or shrub and will not invade your windows or brighter security lights aimed at driveways, doorways and pathways. An electrician in Santa Monica can install the lights as well as connect them to your home’s main source of power. This ensures you never have to worry about the switch accidentally being shut off or messy cords that can get unplugged or become tripping hazards.
