Planning and Pre-Design Visioning
Before we can begin designing and planning outdoor lighting, particularly with more elaborate landscape lighting solutions, it’s important to plan ahead and establish an understanding in the pre-design phase.
In the pre-design phase, we aren’t looking at product types or different colors and levels of lighting; at this stage, it’s all about the base concept of what you have in mind. Here, we establish the overall look and feeling you want to accomplish with the project, and what areas of the property you want to highlight.
The more a client knows about what they want, the faster this phase typically goes; however, the team at Gibraltar Masonry and Landscaping is here to help at every stage of the process. We’ll help you determine the right choices for your property based on what you want to enjoy most on the property, whether you want to entertain more guests or keep your pool area safe.
Design and Installation Services
Our services encompass a wide range of outdoor lighting to accommodate your needs throughout the Baltimore region and southern Pennsylvania. From halogen to LED lamps and other lighting solutions, our team is here to help you through the entire design and installation process.
We typically begin with a consultation before moving onto the design phase. In this consultation, we assess what you’re looking for, and what outdoor space the lighting will be installed in to determine what makes the most sense for your property.
Once you are ready to move onto the design phase, we’ll work with you to capture your vision and create a masterpiece for lighting systems that bring your home to life. Whether you are looking for exterior lighting along the perimeter of the home, driveway or path lighting, or even landscape and outdoor pool lighting, we are here to create a system that matches your home’s exterior.
After design, our team confirms the materials and products used for the installation and we get to work, securing the work and building permits necessary to move forward. The actual installation never takes a long time; most small jobs can be done in under a day once the site is prepared and designed.
Post-Installation Satisfaction Guaranteed
Our team’s dedication to your property and the work we do doesn’t stop once we’ve installed the lighting fixtures. We pride ourselves in providing exceptional customer service and stand by our quality of work with our standard labor warranties and guarantees.
Your satisfaction is guaranteed with all our work, and we’re happy to share our portfolio of previous jobs throughout the region.

Investing in outdoor lighting is a smart choice because it enhances both the curb appeal of your home, as well as the functionality. Placing lights throughout a garden creates enchanting garden paths late into the evening, and keeping patio areas well-lit can help extend the hours of evening gatherings. This kind of lighting is made to not only serve a purpose but also do it stylishly.
Even beyond the visual appeal of these enhancements, outdoor lighting improves the safety of these spaces by keeping walkways well-lit and keeping everyone feeling safe. This greatly improves the mood of parties and allows you to entertain for longer periods. For a prospective buyer, outdoor lighting is an appealing factor, and well-maintained lighting installations can raise the overall value of your home significantly.
Types of Outdoor Lighting Systems
There are a range of outdoor lighting systems that you can select from, and our team will help walk you through those options during the pre-planning and design phase. If you’re looking for ideas ahead of the consultation, however, you’ll find that a lot of homeowners opt for spotlights and well lights closer to the home.
As the lighting moves further away, the lighting is softer and more diffused, focusing more on landscape elements. Path lighting is also a common type of lighting, particularly if there is a patio or driveway that could become a trip hazard late at night. If you have questions about a particular type of outdoor lighting systems, we’re happy to help; just give us a call!
Landscape Lighting Ideas
When it comes to landscaping lighting, there are so many unique ways to light the space that it really pays to first consider the home space that you are lighting as well. You want your landscape lighting to integrate seamlessly with your home’s lighting, keeping the space looking clean and decorative.
The purpose of the lighting is the next consideration to make. If you’re looking to highlight certain landscape features, you can get away with spotlights and small flood lamps, but if you’re hosting a gathering or just need a little bit of lighting to guide your steps down a staircase, you’ll want to consider less invasive options that have a lower brightness.
Lanterns are a good choice near tables and chairs where people will be gathering. Even in garden and gazebo settings, this form of lighting creates a fun and unique way of decorating the space while also adding functionality.
You may also consider accent lighting to highlight architectural or garden features. Accent lighting can also be combined with pathway lighting with the main purpose of illuminating garden paths, driveways, and more.
