The cost of landscape lighting installation varies depending on factors such as the type of lighting, the size of the area to be illuminated, and the complexity of the design. On average, low voltage landscape lighting or solar landscape lighting can range from $1,500 to $4,000 for a typical residential yard. For a more customized setup, such as garden landscape lighting or modern landscaping lighting, the cost may be higher. We recommend contacting Swiftly Landscaping for a free consultation to provide an accurate quote tailored to your specific needs.
Landscape lighting works by using a system of landscaping lighting fixtures that are powered by low voltage or solar power. Low voltage landscape lighting uses a transformer to step down the voltage, allowing you to safely run outdoor lights across your yard. Solar landscape lighting relies on solar panels to absorb sunlight and convert it into energy to power the lights during the night. Whether you're lighting up pathways with garden landscape lighting or adding ambiance with modern landscaping lighting, the system provides functional and decorative illumination for your property.
You can use landscape lighting in various ways to enhance your outdoor space:
Path lighting: Illuminate walkways or driveways with soft garden landscape lighting or low voltage landscape lighting.
Accent lighting: Highlight key features, like trees, sculptures, or water features with spotlights or uplights.
Outdoor ambiance: Create a relaxing atmosphere in seating areas with solar landscape lighting or LED landscape lighting.
Security lighting: Install lights near entrances or dark corners to improve safety.
At Swiftly Landscaping, we help you select the best lighting options for your backyard landscaping lighting ideas, including outdoor lamp posts or solar lamp posts for additional security.
There are countless landscape lighting ideas that can help elevate your garden:
Garden landscape lighting: Use soft, glowing lights along garden beds or under trees to create a magical ambiance.
Pathway lighting: Illuminate walkways with solar landscape lighting or low voltage landscape lighting to guide guests safely.

Low voltage landscape lighting runs on a transformer that reduces the voltage from 120 volts to 12 volts, making it a safe and energy-efficient choice. This type of lighting requires electrical wiring but is excellent for creating bright, consistent illumination over large areas. On the other hand, solar landscape lighting runs on solar panels, collecting energy from the sun during the day and powering the lights at night. Solar lights are easy to install and require no wiring, but they tend to provide softer illumination compared to low voltage lights. Both options are effective for outdoor landscape lighting, but your choice depends on your lighting needs and preferences.
Yes! We offer lamp post installation services, including both traditional outdoor lamp posts and modern options like solar lamp posts. Garden lamp posts provide a classic look for driveways, walkways, or as a focal point in your yard. For those seeking a more energy-efficient option, solar lamp posts use solar power to light your outdoor space without the need for electrical wiring. Whether you need a lamp post for safety, security, or aesthetic appeal, Swiftly Landscaping can design and install the perfect solution for your property.
