What Our Landscape Lighting Includes
Great landscape lighting is about more than visibility — it is about creating atmosphere, highlighting your property's best features, and extending your outdoor living hours. Our designers use a layered approach combining ambient, task, and accent lighting to create depth and drama. We light architectural features, specimen trees, water elements, walkways, and outdoor living areas with careful attention to fixture placement, beam angles, and color temperature so the effect feels natural and inviting rather than harsh or overdone.
- Architectural uplighting and wall washing for home facades
- Path and step lighting for safe navigation
- Moonlighting from tree canopies for soft, natural-looking illumination
- Accent lighting for specimen plants, sculptures, and water features
Commercial-Grade Fixtures and Smart Controls
We install commercial-grade brass and copper LED fixtures that resist corrosion, withstand extreme heat, and deliver consistent light output for years. All systems run on low-voltage transformers for energy efficiency and safety. Smart timers and optional WiFi controls let you manage your lighting from your phone — adjusting schedules, dimming zones, and creating scenes for different occasions. We design every system with expansion capacity so you can add fixtures as your landscape grows.
- Solid brass and copper fixtures with lifetime corrosion resistance
- Energy-efficient LED lamps with warm color temperatures
- Low-voltage systems for safety and reduced energy costs
- Smart timers with astronomical clock and photocell activation
- WiFi-enabled controls for remote management and scene creation
- Expandable systems designed to grow with your landscape
Our Process in Lakeway
From your first call to your finished outdoor space — our process is simple, transparent, and designed around you.
Evening Consultation
We visit your property after dark to evaluate existing lighting conditions, identify key features to highlight, and discuss the mood and functionality you want to achieve.
Lighting Design & Layout
Our designer creates a fixture placement plan specifying locations, fixture types, beam angles, and wattage for each light. We use the plan to calculate transformer sizing and wire runs.
Fixture & Material Selection
We present fixture options that match your aesthetic and budget. All recommended fixtures are commercial-grade with manufacturer warranties and proven performance in our climate.

Our Experience in Lakeway
We have worked throughout Lakeway's neighborhoods — from The Hills and Rough Hollow to Lakeway Highlands and the estates along Lakeway Boulevard. Our crews understand the HOA guidelines, the limestone substrate, and how to design landscapes that complement the lake-centric lifestyle.
Lakeway properties frequently feature shallow limestone bedrock and caliche, requiring rock-sawing and specialized drilling for footings, irrigation trenches, and large-caliper tree planting. We are familiar with Travis County building codes, permit requirements, and inspection processes. Our team has worked in Lakeway neighborhoods for years and understands what designs, materials, and plant species perform best in this specific area.
Landscape Lighting in Lakeway — FAQs
Deer are a reality in Lakeway. We select deer-resistant plant species, install protective fencing where appropriate, and design planting schemes that minimize browsing damage without sacrificing visual appeal.
Timelines depend on project scope and complexity. A typical comprehensive renovation in Lakeway takes 4 to 10 weeks from groundbreaking to completion. We provide a detailed schedule during the proposal phase so you know what to expect.
Landscape lighting costs vary based on the number of fixtures, fixture quality, property size, and complexity of the design. Most residential projects range from targeted accent packages for focal areas to comprehensive whole-property systems. We provide a detailed proposal after the evening consultation so you know exactly what to expect.
Modern LED landscape fixtures produce excellent light output — in many cases surpassing older halogen systems while using a fraction of the energy. LED technology has advanced significantly, and the warm color temperatures we specify create a natural, inviting glow rather than a harsh or clinical look.
