What we do between seasons
Patio & Landscape Lighting
Bistro string lighting, path lights and uplighting that make a yard usable after dark, and a specialty of ours on Lake Simcoe waterfront properties.
- Season
- May – September
- Ideal for
- Anyone whose backyard goes unused after nine o'clock, and waterfront owners who want the dock and shoreline lit properly.
Bistro lighting that stays put
Catenary cable carries the load, not the light string. Installed with proper tension and anchor points, so a summer storm off the lake does not take it down.
Waterfront and dock work
Shoreline, dock and boathouse lighting rated for the conditions, wired safely and aimed to light the path without blinding anyone coming in off the water.
Low-voltage landscape
Path lighting, garden uplighting and tree washing on a low-voltage system that is safe around kids, pets and a lawnmower.
Designed for dark skies
Shielded fixtures aimed down and inward. Your yard gets lit, your neighbour's bedroom does not, and the stars over Georgina stay visible.
The season that fills the gap
Holiday lighting is a hundred-day business. Patio and landscape work is what lets us keep a trained crew employed year-round instead of rebuilding one every autumn, which is the real reason our installs are consistent.
For you it means the same trained crew, the same standards, and a company that is still answering enquiries in June.
Waterfront properties
Keswick, Sutton and the Georgina shoreline are a genuinely different job from an inland backyard. There is wind coming off Lake Simcoe, seasonal docks that move, water proximity that changes what is safe to install, and the fact that the dark side of the property is usually the side people walk toward.
We do a lot of this work. Mention dock and shoreline lighting in your quote request.
A note on string lights
Almost every failed bistro installation we are called to fix has the same cause: the light string was used as the structural cable. It stretches, it sags, and the first real wind pulls a socket apart. A proper catenary wire costs very little and is the difference between four months and four years.
