Landscape Lighting Installation in Raleigh, NC
Landvision Designs proudly designs and installs custom landscape lighting for homes across Raleigh and the Triangle. Good lighting shows off your home and your landscape, and it lets you enjoy your property well after the sun goes down.
Our landscape architects and designers focus on lighting systems that illuminate your space and turn it into a welcoming and elegant environment. This allows us to create a lighting plan that not only meets your practical needs but also enhances the overall visual appeal of your outdoor space.
From subtle uplighting that accentuates trees and shrubs to strategically placed fixtures that highlight focal points, our lighting designs are sure to bring out the best in your property.
Our Landscape Lighting Installation Process
The real power of landscape lighting is layering. We mix light at different heights and angles to give a yard depth after dark, then tune it so you can dial the mood up for a party or down for a quiet evening.
We install a full range of fixture types:
- Uplighting on trees and architectural features
- Downlighting to wash patios, decks, and walkways
- Path and walkway lighting for safe footing
- Deck and step lighting built into the structure
- Accent lighting for water features, sculptures, and focal points
Safety, Security, and Smart Lighting Control
We use high-quality fixtures designed to withstand the elements, and we work with LED and low-voltage landscape lighting, plus smart systems you can control remotely. LED lighting draws far less power and lasts years longer, so a system that runs every night won’t punish your power bill. Dim it for a quiet night, bring it up for a crowd.
Lighting also earns its keep on safety. Lit pathways, steps, and driveways can prevent trips and falls. Proper lighting avoids dark corners around the home that might otherwise invite trouble. Our landscape architect folds all of these factors into the overall plan rather than bolting it on as an after-thought.
Creating Ambiance with Landscape Lighting
The best lighting is the kind you don’t notice. We hide the fixtures and the wiring wherever we can, so what you see is the effect, not the hardware. The light should flatter the landscape, not compete with it.
We match the lighting to your home’s style, whether modern or traditional, so the finished landscape reads as one piece instead of a collection of parts. For Raleigh homes, that means LED technology built to handle the local climate. According to the US Department of Energy, LED technology uses up to 90% less energy and lasts up to 25 times longer than incandescent.

What is landscape lighting?
Outdoor fixtures that light up your property after dark. A good install highlights trees, architecture, and gardens, makes paths and steps safer, and buys you more usable hours outside.

Full design and installation across Raleigh and the Triangle: uplighting, downlighting, path and walkway lighting, deck and step lighting, and accent lighting, in low-voltage and LED.
How does the landscape lighting design process work?
It starts with a conversation about your goals and your property. Landvision Designs’ landscape architects draw up a custom plan, select the right fixtures and placement, and their crews handle the install.
What types of lighting systems do you use?
Mostly low-voltage and LED, including smart systems you can dim or control remotely. They’re efficient, durable, and flexible enough to reset the mood whenever you want.

How is the lighting integrated into the overall design?
Landvision Designs’ landscape architects build it into the larger landscape plan and conceal the fixtures, so the lighting complements the house and plantings instead of standing out.
Are systems customized for each property?
Yes, every design is custom made for your property. Fixture types, placement, and controls are matched to your layout, your home’s architecture, and how you use the space.
Can landscape lighting be controlled remotely?
Yes. Smart systems let you dim, brighten, schedule, and switch your lighting from your phone.
