You’ve spent a lot of time and money making your yard special, but you basically can’t enjoy it after the sun sets. Why not improve your landscaping by accenting your front yard or backyard with the warm glow of outdoor lighting. In addition, lighting will naturally improve your home security.

There’s a long list of practical reasons for adding night lighting to the landscape, among them safety, security, beautification, curb appeal and value.
