Lighting Maintenance

Outdoor lighting can add a sense of beauty and warmth to your space by illuminating your garden and accentuating the unique architectural features of your home. However, lighting maintenance is one of the most neglected items in the lawn and landscape. It can be a pain to go through your entire yard to clean or replace bulbs, especially in hard-to-reach or overgrown areas. 

Thankfully, you don’t have to handle it all by yourself! To help you keep your outdoor lighting shining bright, the experts at BrightWater Irrigation & Lighting offer a lighting maintenance package that includes everything from seasonal setting adjustments to fixture cleaning.

Signs You Need Exterior Lighting Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will keep your landscape lights looking gorgeous and functioning flawlessly. Additionally, it will protect the plants in your garden and prevent breakdowns that could lead to extensive damage or hazardous conditions. To keep your system in great shape and avoid potentially costly repairs, watch for these signs that your lighting needs maintenance:

• Dim, flickering, or dead lights
• Dirty or cloudy bulbs
• Poorly aligned fixtures
• Exposed wires or cables
• Inadequate illumination
• Overgrown landscaping
• Visible damage

There’s no set schedule for how often you should maintain your outdoor lighting system – but if you notice any of the above signs, it’s a good idea to give it some TLC.

How Long Does Outdoor Lighting Last?

The amount of time your outdoor light bulbs will last depends on the type of bulb – and while it varies by brand, you can generally count on LED bulbs to last around 25,000 hours depending on use frequency; for halogen bulbs, it’s more like 3,000; incandescent bulbs have even shorter lives, usually tapping out around 1,500 hours. If you’d like to upgrade your exterior lighting, we can help.
