3 Reasons Why Fall is the Best Time to Install Landscape Lighting

Although many homeowners may believe they should wait until spring to install landscape lighting, the fall season is actually one of the perfect times to have it done. Take a look at these 3 bright ideas as to why fall is the best time to install landscape lighting.

Increased Safety & Security

Adding landscape and accent lighting to your property increases the safety and security of your home. An outdoor space that isn’t well lit can pose tripping hazards and safety risks for you, your family, and guests.

Providing lighting for your driveways, walkways, and entrances can reduce potential hazards as well as deter break-ins or home intrusions. A quality landscape lighting system will make your home feel safe and secure even as it begins to get darker earlier.

More Time to Enjoy

The common thought is that homeowners won’t be able to enjoy their landscape lighting if it’s done in the fall because the cold weather will keep them indoors. However, since it gets dark earlier in the fall and winter, you can make use of and fully enjoy your landscape lighting as it brings you cheer throughout the entire season.

Quality landscape lighting allows you to illuminate your home and show off its best features for all to see. 

Increase Your Home’s Curb Appeal

A great way to increase your home’s curb appeal is to add some beautiful landscape lighting to improve its outdoor aesthetic. Whether you’re looking to sell your home in the future, or simply add equity to your investment, when you add landscape lighting, you can expect an average of a 50% return on your investment.

Decor for the Holidays

Landscape lights give you more options for decorating your home. You can even easily change the lenses of the fixtures to add a festive feel for Thanksgiving and Christmas! Step up your holiday decorating game and consider adding landscape lighting this year!
