It’s been nearly 150 years since the invention of a practical incandescent bulb, and lighting has come a long way. Homes, businesses, and entire cities around the world shine brightly through the night thanks to this step forward. If your home is still sitting in the dark when the sun goes down, it’s time to consider outdoor and landscape lighting in Sandy Springs.

Whether you want to elevate your home’s curb appeal, improve safety, or create a warm and inviting outdoor space, investing in high-quality outdoor lighting can make all the difference. In this brief article brough to you by Abulous Lighting, we shed light on the top 4 reasons why homeowners choose to brighten up their outdoors.

Enhanced Curb Appeal and Property Value

First impressions matter, and a well-lit exterior can make your home look more attractive, inviting, and high-end. Outdoor lighting can highlight architectural details, accentuate landscaping features, and create a polished aesthetic that sets your home apart from the rest.

Whether it’s illuminating a beautiful stone pathway, casting light on a charming front porch, or highlighting unique landscaping elements, properly placed lighting can showcase your home’s exterior and add dimension and depth to your property. These are all features that prospective homebuyers and tenants will appreciate.

Greater Safety and Security

Studies show that well-lit homes are less likely to be targeted by burglars. Motion-activated lighting near entry points, floodlights for driveways, and strategically placed landscape lighting make it difficult for intruders to approach undetected.

A well-lit home is a safer home. Outdoor lighting not only deters crime and trespassers but can also prevent trips, falls, and accidents. Landscape lighting ensures that walkways, driveways, steps, and entrances are well-lit, thereby reducing the risk of falls for you, your family, and visitors.

Whether you’re arriving home late at night or entertaining guests, outdoor lighting provides better visibility so that you can enjoy your night with a peace of mind.

Extended Outdoor Living and Entertainment

Georgia homeowners love their outdoor spaces. Whether you're hanging out on a cozy back porch, a poolside patio, or a beautifully landscaped garden, outdoor lighting allows you to enjoy these spaces long after the sun sets. Here are just some ideas that come to mind:

  1. String lights, lanterns, and pathway lights for warmth and charm.
  2. LED lights in pools.
  3. Recessed lighting for decks.
  4. Spotlights for cooking areas.

Energy-Efficient and Smart Lighting Options

Many homeowners assume that outdoor lighting will significantly increase their energy bills, but modern solutions offer energy-efficient options that provide brilliance without breaking the bank. Here are some common options:

  1. LED Lighting: Compared to traditional bulbs, LED lights consume less energy, last longer, and require minimal maintenance.
  2. Solar-Powered Lights: Georgia gets plenty of sunshine which makes solar-powered outdoor lighting a great eco-friendly option.
  3. Smart Lighting Controls: Set timers, adjust brightness levels, and turn lights on or off from anywhere with smart lighting options.

Absolute Lighting installed my outdoor flood lights 2 years ago and they are beautiful! They did such a great job that I used them to setup and take down the Christmas lights for the past 2 years. I would highly recommend them. Frank always responds to questions and automatically puts me on the schedule for set up and take down of the Christmas Lights.

Frank and the team at Abulous were great to work with. They came out and retro-upgraded some previous lighting that we had done a few years back and made it look as seamless and continuous as possible. They also worked with us on the best (& most economical) way to light up a hard to reach area of our yard. They also followed up with us after we had another group of workers "disturb" some of the lighting wires and came back out and fixed everything back up again. Very friendly, dependable local resource who do great work. Highly recommend.

After reviewing multiple companies we contracted with Abilous Lighting to create outside accent lighting for our home, backyard patio, walkways, & fire pit.  Their ideas and design were the best!   It was a pleasure working with Frank Hasty, who did  the design, and his crew of Brandon & Rusty who performed the work.  All were excellent to work with.   We are very happy with Abulous Lighting.
