Outdoor Lighting Installation & Landscape Lighting Design in Toronto
Outdoor lighting installation brings low-voltage or solar fixtures to a property — along pathways, on decks, around gardens, and near architectural features — to improve safety, extend how long you can use your outdoor space, and highlight a home’s best features after sunset. A well-designed landscape lighting design combines three layers: path and safety lighting, accent lighting on focal points, and ambient lighting for gathering spaces.

Why limit your outdoor space to daylight hours? At Land-Con, we’ve spent 25+ years as a landscape lighting company designing and installing lighting across Toronto, North York, Etobicoke, Vaughan, and the wider GTA. Every project is designed and installed by our own in-house team, built around your property’s layout, architecture, and how you actually use the space — not a pre-set package.

Outdoor Lighting Installation Services We Provide
No two properties get lit the same way. A narrow city lot needs a different fixture layout than a half-acre backyard, and a poolside lighting design needs different fixtures entirely from a front driveway. As your landscape lighting contractor, we design each layer — path/safety, accent, and ambient — around how you use the property after dark.

Curb Appeal & Front Garden Lighting
Front-facing accent and wash lighting that highlights your home’s exterior architecture and landscaping, improving how the property reads from the street after dark.
Garden Lighting
Uplighting and spotlighting for flower beds, shrubs, and planting areas — designed to bring texture and depth instead of flattening the garden with a single floodlight.
Deck and Patio Lighting
Step lights, post-cap fixtures, and recessed lighting that make your deck or patio usable for evening entertaining, not just daytime.
Pool Lighting
Underwater and perimeter lighting designed for both safety and an evening look that suits the rest of your landscape. See our pool lighting design guide.
Pathway and Stairway Lighting
Low-voltage fixtures spaced along walkways and steps to improve safety at night — often the first layer homeowners install.
Driveway and Front Yard Lighting
Fixture placement along driveways and front yards for both security and visual approach.

Frequently Asked Questions About Outdoor Lighting Installation
Why should I install outdoor landscape lighting?
Outdoor landscape lighting extends how many hours a day you can use your property, improves safety on paths, steps, and driveways, and increases curb appeal. Well-placed lighting also reduces trip hazards and deters after-dark intruders, which many homeowners weigh as heavily as the aesthetic benefit.
How many lights will I need for my property?
The right number of fixtures depends on your property size, the lighting effect you want, and your budget. During your on-site consultation, our designers assess your space and recommend a fixture layout specific to your property — there’s no fixed rule that works for every yard.
What types of landscape lighting design services do you offer?
Land-Con offers garden lighting, pool lighting, deck and patio lighting, pathway and stairway lighting, driveway and front yard lighting, and full-property lighting design. Each service uses fixture types suited to that specific area — pool lighting, for example, uses fixtures that garden lighting doesn’t need.
How much does outdoor lighting installation cost?
Cost depends on property size and layout, number of fixtures, and material choices. Every property is different, so we provide a tailored estimate after an on-site consultation rather than a general figure. Call 416.504.5263 to book yours.
Is low-voltage landscape lighting energy-efficient?
Yes. Low-voltage LED landscape lighting draws significantly less power than standard household-voltage fixtures. Solar fixtures are also an option for certain areas of a property where running wiring isn’t practical.
Do I need a permit for landscape lighting installation in Toronto?
Most low-voltage landscape lighting installations don’t require a City of Toronto permit since they run on a transformer stepped down from standard household current. Larger commercial installations or anything tied into main electrical service should be confirmed with your contractor before work begins.
