Landscape lighting installation in Longwood, FL
Longwood has a lot of larger lots, and that is where outdoor lighting earns its keep here: a long driveway, a gate, a well pump house and a shed that all sit dark at night.
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 Longwood.
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.
Gates and driveways
Lights at the gate and along the drive make the property readable after dark. A photocell turns them on at dusk and a timer turns them off, so nobody walks out to flip a switch.
Where the circuit comes from
Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels are common here. A new outdoor circuit should not land in a panel we would recommend replacing anyway, so we look at it at the estimate and tell you plainly.
Septic and well lines
Before any trench is dug we ask where the septic tank, drain field and well line are. Those are yours, not the utility's, so nobody else marks them.
Historic Longwood porches
Historic Longwood has some of the oldest houses in Seminole County. A porch or wall light there gets a look at the box and wire behind it. Permits go to the City of Longwood Building Division or Seminole County.
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.
How it goes
Grant and Jason cover Seminole County. You will have a name and a text before anyone is at your door.
Real reviews, word for word.
"Grant wired our new kitchen project. We have used him two other times and plan on using him with our next project."
"…In Phaze sent 3 people for the job, which they completed in 1 day, even vacuuming up afterwards."
"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."
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.
