More Than Builder-Grade Lights
However, good lighting is more than a few generic lights from the hardware store. In fact, we treat landscape lighting as an art. First, a skilled team member reviews your goals. Then we create a plan for landscape lighting in San Marcos that makes your outdoor space more beautiful and more useful.
Residential and Commercial Lighting
For example, we light homes, gardens, patios, and paths. See our residential lighting services. We also light offices, storefronts, and HOA common areas. Also, learn more about our commercial lighting. Finally, for a bolder look, ask about our color-changing systems.
Low-Voltage Landscape Lighting Design in San Marcos
Our low-voltage landscape lighting also brings out the best in your garden and home. Here are some of the ways we use it, for example:
- Accent lighting. First, we place lights to highlight trees, plants, and key garden features. For instance, see our accent lighting page.
- Uplighting and downlighting. These techniques also cast soft shadows and light up your paths. Moonlighting, for example, mimics the gentle glow of the moon.
- Path lighting. Pathway lighting also helps your family and guests walk safely when it gets dark.
- Security lighting. Moreover, well-placed fixtures help keep intruders away. As a result, your home feels safer.
- Timers and transformers. For instance, a timer turns your lights on and off for you. Meanwhile, a transformer powers your system safely and efficiently. Likewise, learn about lighting controls.
In addition, our fixtures are built to last. So your lights keep looking great through the Texas weather. If you want to learn more about saving energy with LEDs, see the U.S. Department of Energy’s guide to LED lighting.

MEET THE OWNER
Ryan Zimmerman
First, Ryan Zimmerman grew up in Anchorage, Alaska. Then he moved to Central Texas in 2005. After working for the Texas State University System, he started a residential construction company in 2012.
At first, Ryan framed and remodeled houses around Austin. Soon, his work shifted to high-end window and door replacement. During that time, he also bought an abandoned home in Lago Vista, TX. Afterward, he restored it into a beautiful single-family home. Along the way, one thing stood out to him: the visual impact of landscape lighting on Hill Country homes.
Later, in 2015, Ryan took a customer service role with a company in Dallas. Then, he bought a home in East Dallas and improved it in his free time. Landscape lighting was his favorite addition because it caught his neighbors’ attention. Soon, their questions turned into projects. As a result, the rest is history.
Landscape Lighting FAQs in San Marcos
How much does landscape lighting cost in San Marcos?
Most Outdoor Lighting Concepts projects run $3,000 to $7,000. Austin-area guides put a professional front yard at about $2,500 to $6,500. For San Marcos homes on hills near the river, fixture count, wire runs and fixture material set the final price.
Do I need a permit for landscape lighting in San Marcos?
Texas lets landscape lighting installers work on low-voltage circuits without an electrician’s license, but a new outlet or circuit for the transformer is licensed electrical work and may need a permit. We plan around existing outlets for San Marcos homes on hills near the river when possible.
What controls are available for landscape lighting in San Marcos?
Options range from a photocell-plus-timer to smart controllers with app control, zones and astronomic timers that track sunset. For San Marcos homes on hills near the river, separate zones keep entertaining areas flexible. We can walk through it during your free consultation and nighttime demo.
Can you light riverside and hillside homes in San Marcos?
Yes. Hillside lots benefit from step and path lighting, while trees and facades get uplighting and moonlighting. Any fixtures near water need wet-location ratings, and brass or copper holds up best in Texas heat. We can walk through it during your free consultation and nighttime demo.
Who installs landscape lighting in San Marcos?
