Landscape Lighting Seasonal Tune-Up
Landscape lighting is designed to highlight your property. When plants grow two feet taller over a Florida summer, or storms knock fixtures sideways, the effect is lost. A seasonal tune-up restores the original design intent by re-aiming every fixture, cleaning lenses, replacing damaged units, and resetting timers for the new season's daylight hours.
What a Seasonal Tune-Up Covers
- Re-aiming all fixtures to account for plant growth and landscape changes
- Storm-damaged or knocked-over fixture repair and reset
- Lens cleaning to restore full light output
- Corroded connection cleaning and re-waterproofing
- Timer update to match the current season's sunrise and sunset times
- Full voltage retest after all adjustments are complete
The Best Time for a Tune-Up
We recommend scheduling a tune-up in late October or November, after the summer growth peak and the main storm season have passed. This positions your system perfectly for the cooler months when outdoor entertaining and evening curb appeal matter most. A second tune-up in April before summer growth begins rounds out a complete bi-annual program.
Florida plants grow on roughly six-month cycles, with the most dramatic growth occurring between May and October. A palm or shrub that was perfectly illuminated in November can completely block a fixture beam by August. Our technicians document aim angles during installation and restore them precisely during each seasonal visit. Post-storm inspections are particularly important after named tropical systems, when wind-driven debris frequently displaces ground-stake fixtures across large areas of a property.
