Outdoor Power & Lighting – Q&As

1. What outdoor electrical services do you offer?

We install landscape lighting, patio and deck lighting, outdoor outlets, pool and spa wiring, security lighting, post and pole lighting, and exterior circuits.


2. Is landscape lighting safe in the winter?

Yes — outdoor lighting is rated for all weather, including Upstate NY snow and freezing temperatures.


3. Can you add outlets or power to sheds and garages?

Absolutely. We run new circuits, trenching if needed, to get safe power where you need it.


4. Do you install motion-sensor or security lighting?

Yes — LED flood lights, camera lighting, and motion-activated fixtures.


5. Does outdoor lighting require maintenance?

Minimal maintenance is needed, but occasional bulb replacement or fixture cleaning may be required.


6. Can you install outdoor lighting timers or smart controls?

Yes — including smart switches, dusk-to-dawn sensors, and Wi-Fi-controlled lighting.


7. What type of electrical work is required to safely power a boat dock?

Boat docks require marine-grade wiring, weather-resistant materials, GFCI protection, and proper grounding/bonding to meet safety codes. Because docks are exposed to water, fluctuating water levels, and harsh conditions, electrical installations must follow strict NEC and local lake/marina regulations to prevent shock hazards.


8. Can you install lighting on my dock that’s safe and built to last?

Yes. We install LED dock lighting, pathway lights, underwater lights, and motion-activated security lights using corrosion-resistant, waterproof fixtures. All materials are rated for wet locations, and we ensure your lighting is mounted securely, protected from water intrusion, and operates safely around your dock environment.
