Landscape lighting installation in Apopka, FL
Apopka lighting jobs often cover more ground than a front walk: a long driveway, a well house, a barn or a nursery building, with dark stretches in between.
A starter set with a transformer, a timer and a handful of fixtures sits at the low end. A full yard with several zones, long underground runs and dock or pool-deck lighting is the top. Single fixtures and floods are priced per light.
Four things that are only true in Apopka.
If you could swap the city name out of this page and it would still be accurate, it should not exist. Here is what actually changes here.
Long distances, real voltage drop
Low-voltage cable loses voltage over distance, so the last lights on a long run go dim. For a far barn or gate we run line-voltage in conduit at code depth and set a second transformer or a pole light out there.
Floods on outbuildings
A dusk or motion flood on a barn, shed or well house is a common request. Plenty of outbuildings here were wired by whoever was around at the time. We check that feed before adding a light to it.
Mind the well and irrigation lines
811 marks the utility lines, not your well line or irrigation. On nursery and older well properties we ask where those run before anything is trenched.
Duke, city or county
Duke Energy serves most of Apopka. A new outdoor circuit is filed with the City of Apopka Building Department or Orange County, depending on the address, and our office files it.
Real numbers before you call.
Same ranges we publish everywhere, because the work does not cost more just because of the zip code. You get an exact number at the free estimate.

Real reviews, word for word.
"After getting the run around from other electricians I came across In Phase. Wish I found them first."
"Unlike some of their competitors, they don't try to up-sell products that aren't strictly necessary."
"Our old panel dated back to 1984 and was overdue for replacement. We worked directly with Keylin, who was outstanding from start to finish."
"…tried to over charge for work that was not even necessary. In Phaze offered an alternative option at a fraction of the cost."
Straight answers.
Low-voltage or line-voltage landscape lights?
Most path and accent lighting is low-voltage: a transformer plugs into a GFCI outlet and safer 12-volt wire runs to the fixtures. Security floods and soffit lights are usually line-voltage. Many yards use both, and we wire each the right way.
Do the wires have to be buried?
Low-voltage cable is buried shallow along beds. Line-voltage runs go in conduit at the depth code requires. Either way nothing is left lying on the grass.
Can the lights turn on by themselves?
Yes. A photocell turns them on at dusk, a timer turns them off when you choose, and an astronomic or smart timer follows sunset through the year.
Will it survive Florida storms and sprinklers?
Fixtures, connectors and boxes must be rated for wet locations, and every outdoor outlet needs GFCI protection. Most landscape lights that fail early used indoor-grade connectors.
Can you fix the landscape lights we already have?
Often. Dead runs are usually a corroded splice, a failed transformer or a tripped GFCI. We find it at our service rate and tell you whether a repair or a new system makes more sense.
Do you do dock and pool-deck lighting?
Yes. Lighting near water has extra code rules on GFCI protection and distance, and we follow them. Pool and spa circuits themselves are covered on our pool and hot tub page.
