Design & Installation
Lighting designed for your home.
We walk your property at dusk and design a scene that flatters your architecture and landscape: path and step lighting for safe footing, uplighting for trees and facades, and accents that bring the whole yard to life. Every project starts with landscape lighting installation planned on-site.

Common questions
Landscape lighting questions, answered.
What homeowners ask us most before lighting their home and yard.
Do you need an electrician to install landscape lighting?
Not for the low-voltage LED systems we install. A transformer steps household power down to a safe low voltage, so there's no exposed line-voltage wiring in your yard. We handle the entire installation, including the transformer connection.
How much does landscape lighting cost to run?
Very little. Modern low-voltage LED fixtures use a small fraction of the energy older halogen lights did, so even a full-property lighting scene adds only a little to your electric bill, and the LEDs last for years before they need replacing.
Can I install landscape lighting myself?
You can buy DIY kits, but a professional design is the difference between a few stake lights and a scene that flatters your whole home. We design on-site at dusk, place each fixture for the right effect, hide the wiring, and use commercial-grade fixtures built for New England weather.
Where should landscape lights be placed?
It depends on the effect you want: uplighting trees and architecture, grazing textured walls, lighting paths and steps for safe footing, and accenting or silhouetting garden beds. We plan the placement around your home's best features during the dusk walkthrough.
What brands of lighting do you install?
We're a Kichler Gold Contractor and install FX Luminaire and other professional-grade fixtures, chosen for their durability and warranties rather than the disposable fixtures sold at big-box stores.
Do you service or add to existing lighting?
Yes, for the systems we installed. We maintain, upgrade, and expand low-voltage LED landscape lighting that P.J. Pappas originally installed, including replacing fixtures and adding new zones or smart controls. We don't service lighting systems installed by another company.
What your neighbors say
Homes that look their best after dark.
P.J. Pappas Irrigation and Lighting did an outstanding job on my yard. Peter, James, and the crew were professional and hardworking, paid attention to every detail, and left everything clean.
The second system they installed for my family: lawn irrigation and landscape lighting. Price was good, and these guys take great pride in their work and stand by their installs.
Highly recommend, very responsive with a fast turnaround from quote to execution, and the guys are friendly and hardworking. Immaculate job!
