"The work was performed promptly and accurately. The systems were installed in 2008 and I use them every year for maintenance as well as opening and closing the sprinkler system. All of their employees have been knowledgeable, professional and friendly. I would heartily recommend them."

"Dane did an amazing job. He was extremely friendly, talked through options with us for exterior lighting, gave a fair price that didn’t require haggling and came out to install the lights a couple days later. I highly recommend."

"I hired Fabian and Unique Landscaping to install a new paver patio, fire pit, seating wall, pergola, outdoor lighting, outdoor sound system, and water feature. The results exceeded my expectations. The process from beginning to end was great as Fabian had great communication throughout the project. Fabian and his crew worked hard and the results showed. I was completely satisfied with the process and end result. I highly recommend Fabian and Unique for your next hardscaping project."

"We began a project for exterior landscape lighting, but as we got to know Randy, Mike, and Green Light Design Group, we were so impressed with their capabilities, we substantially expanded our project from exterior lighting, into landscape design, adding gorgeous new plantings, install hardscape replacement, and other substantial improvements. This project was beyond successful. Added true value to our home. Top-notch customer-oriented people! A 5-Star rating is not enough!!!"

"Alex and his father did a fantastic job with adding in to my existing patio. From start to finish, the communication was consistent and timely. Getting a quote was easy, whereas I had to hound other landscapers just to get a quote. Alex kept in touch with me every step of the way. They were able to start the project quickly and worked very hard. Iâ m so happy with the result and I highly recommend this company for any landscaping services!"

"The project went wonderfully. Miroslaw responded to my request within a half hour. He came out in 3 days and was prompt, courteous, and respectful. He gave me two quotes for the job--one if he could pull the new 10gauge wire through existing conduit and another if he had to install all new conduit. Unfortunately, the prior electrician abandoned my 220V line and we could not locate the conduit. So, Miroslaw had to run all new conduit down from the roof, 3 1/2 stories to the basement. He finished the project in a day, which was very impressive. The holes he had to cut in my plaster walls look like a surgeon did them; he was meticulous and tailored his cuts to just what he needed, making my plaster repair easier. Miroslaw also identified mistakes the previous electrician made. He explained them and charged me a nominal amount to fix them right then and there. Finally, Miroslaw kept the final price to the lower of the two quotes, even though he could have charged me for the more expensive one. He worked efficiently for 7.5 hours. I gave him coffee and water. I caught him eating his sandwich for lunch while he was working! He's hardworking, honest, friendly, and his work is great. I would recommend him to family and friends without reservation. Way to go Miroslaw!"

"Excellent. Serviceman came out and said we were fine. We didn't need any work at all and said he didn't want to do the work if it wasn't needed. It was so nice to have a man come out, give us his honest assessment, and be so kind. I ask you --does it get any better.? f you want an honest electrician, Widur is your guy."

"It's been 3.5 years, and the patio looks better than ever with landscaping. The paver edging has shifted about an inch in a couple areas, but that is easily filled with paver locking sand."

FAQs for outdoor lighting plan and installation projects in Gurnee, IL

Permit requirements for outdoor lighting vary depending on your location and project scope. Simple fixture replacements don't require permits, but projects involving new electrical circuits, extensive trenching, or significant system expansions often do. Local building departments establish these requirements, and many professional electricians handle permit applications as part of their service package.

The timeline for outdoor lighting installation varies based on project complexity. Basic systems might require only one to two days for complete installation, while extensive lighting networks with numerous fixtures and complex wiring needs could extend to a week or longer. Weather conditions, property accessibility, and soil characteristics can all influence how quickly professionals can complete your installation.

Outdoor lighting offers both practical and aesthetic benefits that many homeowners find valuable. Beyond enhancing nighttime visibility and security, well-designed lighting can highlight architectural features and extend outdoor living hours. While installation represents a significant investment, quality lighting may potentially increase property appeal and could contribute to overall home value.

Some outdoor lighting projects are suitable for homeowner installation, particularly simple solar fixtures or low-voltage systems that plug into existing outlets. However, projects requiring new electrical connections, permanent wiring, or integration with home electrical systems demand professional expertise. Electrical work carries inherent safety risks, and improper installation could create fire hazards or code violations.

The operating cost for outdoor lighting depends primarily on your fixture types, bulb selection, and usage patterns. Energy-efficient LED fixtures consume significantly less electricity than traditional incandescent or halogen alternatives. Controlling your lighting with timers, photocells, or motion sensors can further reduce energy usage by ensuring lights operate only when needed or beneficial.
