Landscape Lighting Maintenance · Westchester County, NY
Every outdoor lighting system drifts. Ours get pulled back on a schedule.
Fixtures shift out of aim. Beds grow into the beam. Connections corrode. Lenses film over. None of it happens overnight, so most homeowners notice the system looks worse without being able to say why.
We service low voltage landscape lighting throughout Westchester County, and our crew works out of Mount Kisco, a short drive from most of the county.
About NY Landscape Lighting
Why Westchester County Homeowners Choose NY Landscape Lighting
Most companies servicing landscape lighting in Westchester are landscapers or electricians who added lighting as a side service. We are not. Lighting is the whole business, and has been since 2005.
That matters on a service call, because most lighting failures are not a bad bulb. They are a nicked wire under a bed, a corroded connection, an overloaded transformer tap, or a photocell that stopped reading dusk. A generalist swaps the fixture. We find the cause.
We service systems we installed and systems installed by other companies. If we did not build it, we walk it first, tell you what is failing and what it will take, and you decide from there.
We also re-aim at night. Aiming is judged in the dark, on your property, with the system running.

What a Maintenance Visit Covers
A maintenance visit is a full pass on the system, not a look at whichever light you reported. This is what our crew does on a typical Westchester property.
Re-aiming every fixture. Frost heave, mowing, and settling move fixtures a few degrees a season. We reset aim at night against the actual planting.
Lens and housing cleaning. Mineral film, pollen, and soil spatter cut output well before a lamp fails.
Transformer and connection check. We open the transformer, check load against tap voltage, and inspect terminals for corrosion and heat.
Voltage readings at the far fixtures. The end of a run tells you whether the system is still balanced. Low readings there explain color shift and dimming.
Timer, photocell, and astronomical clock reset. The single most common complaint we get is lights coming on at the wrong time.
Clearing growth off the beam. Beds mature into fixtures. We cut back what is blocking light and flag fixtures that need relocating.
Buried and loose fixture reset. Mulch, leaf litter, and lawn build over uplights every year.
Written report. You get what we found, what we fixed, and what is worth doing next.
Landscape Lighting Repair
Outdoor Lighting Repairs We Do Most Often
Most repair calls in Westchester come down to a short list of failures. These are the ones we see week to week.
A whole section is dark, the rest works. Almost always a cut or crushed wire. Aerators, edgers, shovels, and fence posts do it. We trace the run and splice it properly underground.
Nothing turns on at all. Usually a tripped GFCI, a blown fuse, or a transformer that shut down on a short. We find what caused the short rather than resetting it and leaving.
Lights come on late, early, or not every night. Dead timer backup battery, a dirty or shaded photocell, or a clock that lost its schedule after an outage.
One fixture keeps failing. Water in the socket, a corroded connector, or a fixture sitting too low in a wet spot. Replacing the lamp again will not hold.
Colors no longer match. Mixed lamp ages and mixed color temperatures across a run. We bring the system back to one temperature.
Storm and construction damage. Downed limbs, regrading, patio work, and pool work all take out buried runs.
Call (914) 962-2095 and describe what the system is doing. We can usually tell you on the phone whether it is a service call or a bigger repair.
Outdoor Lighting Maintenance Plan
Annual Plan or a One-Off Service Call
We service both ways. There is no requirement to be on a plan to get a repair from us.
Annual maintenance plan. Scheduled visits through the year covering the full pass above, priority scheduling when something fails, and labor on covered repairs.
One-off service call. For a specific failure, or for a system you inherited and want assessed before you spend anything on it.
System takeover. If another company installed your lighting and is no longer servicing it, we will assess it, list what is failing, and quote the repair. Many systems need connections and a transformer rather than a rebuild.
Plans work best on larger systems and on properties where landscaping crews are on site regularly, which is most of Bedford, Pound Ridge, North Salem, and Armonk.
Landscape Lighting Maintenance Cost
What Affects the Cost of Servicing Your System
We price service by what the system needs, not by a flat rate. These are the factors that move it.
Fixture count and property size. A twelve fixture front yard and a ninety fixture estate are different days of work.
Who installed it and how. Systems with buried, unrated splices and undersized cable take longer to repair than systems built to spec.
Halogen or LED. Halogen systems need lamps replaced on a cycle. LED systems shift the cost toward drivers, connections, and aiming.
Access. Fixtures behind mature beds, on slopes, or inside stonework take longer to reach.
What we find. A cut wire is a repair. A system with failing connections throughout is a different conversation, and we say so before we start.
We give you a number before work begins. Call (914) 962-2095.

Landscape Lighting Maintenance FAQs
Will you service a landscape lighting system another company installed?
Yes. A large share of our service work is on systems we did not install. We walk the property, test the transformer and the runs, and give you a written list of what is failing before any work starts.
Half my landscape lights are out and the rest work fine. What is wrong?
That pattern almost always means the wire feeding that section has been cut or crushed, most often by yard work, digging, or a fence or patio installation. Swapping bulbs will not fix it. We trace the run to the break and make a proper waterproof splice. Call (914) 962-2095.
My outdoor lights come on at the wrong time. Can you fix that?
Yes, and it is one of the quickest repairs we do. The cause is usually a drained timer backup battery, a photocell that has been shaded by growth or dirtied, or an astronomical clock that lost its schedule after a power outage.
Do LED landscape lighting systems still need maintenance?
Yes. LEDs remove the lamp replacement cycle, but they do not stop fixtures drifting out of aim, plantings growing into the beam, lenses filming over, or connections corroding underground. Those are what change how a system looks, and they happen on LED and halogen alike.
Do I have to be on a maintenance plan to get a repair?
No. We take one-off service calls, and we will assess a system for you without any ongoing commitment. Plan customers get priority scheduling, which matters most in late fall when holiday installs fill the calendar.
How much does landscape lighting maintenance cost in Westchester County?
It depends on fixture count, how the system was originally built, and what we find on the walkthrough. We give you a number before we start work, and there is no charge for the estimate.
