The Top 5 Reasons Why Every Home Needs Landscape Lighting

There are many ways that you can enhance the aesthetic appeal of your home’s exterior, but perhaps one way might strike you as surprising. Customized outdoor lighting not only sets your home apart, but it serves a functional purpose as well. At On The Spot Home Services, we provide outdoor lighting and landscape lighting installation services that will make your home sparkle. Let’s explore the top five reasons why every home should have outdoor lighting professionally installed.

1. Boost Curb Appeal

Perhaps the most obvious benefit of outdoor lighting is that it will boost your home's curb appeal. Lights that are well placed can highlight your home's architectural features and showcase your landscaping after the sun sets.

2. Heighten Home Security

One significant reason that your home's exterior should be well-lit is to increase the security around your property at night. With adequate lighting to illuminate each side of your home and key areas such as entrances and walkways, you will deter any unwanted visitors. After all, a home that is brightly lit will be less likely to experience a break-in.

3. Enhance Nighttime Safety

Not only do you want your home to be safe from intruders, but you also want it to be a safe place for household members to navigate during the dark evening hours. Landscape lighting will ensure that pathways, steps, and other potential hazards are well-lit. We can use spotlights, flood lights, and wall wash lights.

4. Increase Property Value

Outdoor lighting and landscape lighting will enhance the curb appeal of your home for future buyers, as well as send the message that your property has been well-maintained. Professional lighting is an attractive feature that makes a home appear more functional and aesthetically pleasing than other homes. 

5. Extend Outdoor Living

Create a warm and inviting atmosphere in your backyard for guests with outdoor lighting. We can saturate your deck in light to help you design the ultimate backyard retreat that your family can enjoy for years to come. We can also attach lights to posts or nearby structures to keep them out of the way.
