We are going to update our landscape and home, should we wait until the work is complete to call you? I have an existing sytem that malfunctions or doesn't work. Should I replace it? Can you leave out some lights from the original design to cut the cost? Why should I consider an outdoor lighting professional? Our lighting Experts are professionally trained to not only install and maintain a variety of different types of low voltage systems, but to assist the home or business owner in completing their specific lighting objectives. We will help in all aspects from planning, design, installation, and maintenance with a level of professionalism you won't find from any landscape company. -top- What are the benefits of an outdoor lighting system? Not only will lighting add curb appeal, it will provide your property with a raised level of security. Our lighting experts are trained to strategically place lights to evenly distribute low levels of illumination around your home and surrounding landscape. Properly lit, your home's points of entrance become too risky for thieves to even consider. They would much rather look for a less challenging target than risk being seen trying to enter your home. Landscape lighting also helps in increasing safety in walkways and steps around your home, allowing you as well as visitors navigate carefully around potentially hazardous obstacles that may otherwise be unseen. Many people spend thousands of dollars remodeling their outdoor living spaces to be able to enjoy them during the day. Our experts will bring those sitting and recreational spaces to life and accent any area to a beautiful setting. Energy efficiency is probably the biggest reason to choose a low voltage system. And finally, a professionally installed, high quality low voltage system can add value to your home by beautifying the premises and having it stand out from other homes in the area. -top- Why are the hardware store lights so much cheaper? The lighting systems you see at the local hardware store are made for their ease of installation, but those systems have more flaws due to their convenience and can't put out nearly the same quality of light a professionally installed system can. Transformers from the hardware store are not multi-tap to adjust for voltage drop. In terms of their durability, they will in no way stand the test of time like our fixtures will and typically end up costing more in maintenance or leave the owner so frustrated that the lighting project is completely abandoned. -top- Will installation of one of your systems mess up my yard? Vision Landscape Lighting is completely conscious of our customers needs and make sure that all the work is done by hand. We never use trenchers in residential projects and remain conscious of utilities and irrigation that could potentially cause problems. -top- What if I wanted to add more lights later? All our systems are designed with a larger transformer for future expansions and depending on your needs we can find a way to accent your additions as well as reconfigure any existing lights to accentuate new areas. -top- We are going to update our landscape and home, should we wait until the work is complete to call you? We recommend calling us during the planning stages of your remodel. We will work with all parties involved making sure that we can access areas of your yard that may be covered with concrete and impossible to dig around or under. We can also run conduit to light steps, walkways, driveways and any other permanent surface. You should always consider lighting while you are in the planning stage. -top- I have an existing system that malfunctions or doesn't work. Should I replace it? Many existing systems are of good quality if professionally installed, but neglect for years can cause them to deteriorate. We not only specialize in new system installation, but we will repair and maintain your current system and keep it running for years. We offer a one and two year maintainance agreement that would involve replacing bulbs and O-rings, straightning fixtures, resetting timers and replacing any stained glass from hard water. -top- Can you leave out some lights from the original design to cut the cost? Under most circumstances, straying from the original design by removing fixtures will not produce a satisfactory lighting system. Additionally, adding fixtures in the future is always more costly than doing things properly the first time. Every fixture in the design has a specific purpose in the landscape, like pieces of a puzzle. If pieces are left out, the result is unbalanced and incomplete. Focal points, accented features and transitional are all necessary components needed to create a visually pleasing night scene and add depth to your living space. -top- If you have any other questions or comments, please feel free to contact us by phone or e-mail. |
