We have been in the exterior lighting business since 2004. We work year-round with landscape lighting services, patio/bistro lighting Patio Lighting Pros, permanent roofline lighting Roof Lites Chicago & our Christmas lighting company Frosty’s Holiday Lighting.

Yes we do! We offer a free year of service with your landscape lighting installation. Labor and materials are included in this warranty. After the first year, your landscape lighting fixtures and transformers are still covered by a 10 year warranty and replacement of the products is free. There is a $135 service fee to cover the trip charge and labor for the 1st hour.

Advanced Lightscaping offers a 100% buy back guarantee on all stocked fixtures in the first 30 days. If you purchase one of our house fixtures and you're not completely happy with the fixture(s) or the installation and you have given us an opportunity to make it right, we will happily refund you 100% of your money and remove the system. The buyback does not apply to special order fixtures.

Yes. Our current service call fee is $135 which includes a $50 trip charge. The service call fee covers your first hour of service. We will diagnose any issues with your lighting and if time and budget allows we will fix the issue(s). The price per man hour after the first hour is $85/man hour.

Our house fixtures are made of high quality brass. We prefer these landscape lighting fixtures because of their durability. They age well and stand up to the harsh Chicago weather. We also have alternative options such as painted black aluminum fixtures. While these are high quality fixtures they just don’t stand up as well to the elements. They can’t take the abuse such as an accidental kick from someone walking through the beds, the finish doesn’t hold up if exposed to the sun and rain long term.

Yes, we offer a 5% discount to all active military, first responders and healthcare workers for our landscape lighting services. Please bring this to our attention before your final invoice.

Yes. We offer a 10% neighborhood subdivision discount. A minimum of 5 houses is required. Contact your neighbors!

Yes. Our minimum order for a new installation is $450.00. We do have some customers inquire about adding a light to their flagpole or a single light installation for a subdivision entrance.

Yes. For us, everything is about detail, consistency and custom delivery. That’s why we choose landscape lighting fixtures specifically for different areas and applications of your house and/or property. Custom landscape lighting is what we do best.

We wouldn’t dare! We carry a WARM WHITE LED (2700k) bulb that is very comparable to the traditional incandescent bulb. We also carry many other outdoor LED lighting options including color changing outdoor fixtures for different holidays and events.

Yes. You can pick any shade of white for your house that you prefer. Our most common outdoor LED lighting bulb colors in order of preference are 2700k, 3000k and then 4000k. If you are interested in a color changing outdoor lighting system, please inquire about the many different options we have.

Yes. All transformers will include a timer. Some options in order of preference are: dusk to dawn photocell timer, mechanical timer, digital timer and a Wi-Fi timer.

No. As long as our installers have access to a working receptacle then customers will not need to be present for the landscape lighting installation.

Please let us know your preference and we will set your timer accordingly.

Nothing specific is required but we would recommend you to have an idea on budget. While we do understand that this can change throughout the process, this will allow us to design a landscape lighting installation that is more inline with your desired budget. We definitely do not oversell our customers on ideas that do not bring value to their job.

While in some areas it might be obvious on how to light it up, it’s getting light into those tricky places that separates us from the other companies. Our vision, imagination and expertise is what allows us to come up with the ideas to get your job done professionally. Our attention to detail throughout the process is also something that we take great pride in doing.

Upon acceptance of the estimate a 50% down payment is required which will cover the cost of your materials for the job. The final payment isn’t due until the completion and satisfaction of your lighting project.

We accept quote requests any time! Spring, summer and early fall are our busiest times and the best time to take care of your landscape lighting project. We do have a holiday lighting company that consumes quite a bit of our time from October 1st through February 1st so please expect delays at that time. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

As mentioned in the previous question, we other types of outdoor lighting through our sister companies: Frosty’s Holiday Lighting, Roof Lites Chicago & Patio Lighting Pros.
