Landscape Lighting
Brighten the night with security and style.
If you’re looking for landscape lighting installation in Victor and the greater Rochester area, Benson Enterprises is your trusted partner. We design, install, and maintain low voltage landscape lighting, creating captivating outdoor spaces that stand out from the rest, day or night.
Types of Landscape Lighting
Pathway Lighting
Walkways, garden paths, and driveways can all benefit from nighttime illumination. Pathway lights help facilitate safer movement around your property, reducing the risks of accidents. They also add charming ambiance to your landscape.
Patio and Stair Lighting
Providing subtle illumination, patio/deck lighting extends the usable time for your outdoor space well into the night. If that space includes steps or stairs, this type of lighting will also im-prove safety.
Feature Spotlights
A spotlight is the perfect way to highlight visual focal points like fountains, specimen trees or gazebos. By directing focused beams, spotlights add drama and show off the unique features of your landscape.
Up Light
Similar to a feature spotlight, an up light illuminates specific elements of your home’s exterior. Porch columns and other vertical elements become striking focal points when bathed in di-rected upward light.
Down Lighting
For a more subtle light display, down lights add a welcoming glow. Placed high in a tree, this light type will create a moonlight effect.
Floodlights
If you have an expansive lawn, a floodlight is a good choice. Floodlights feature a wide beam that illuminates large areas. This light type can improve security by brightening dark or shadowy spots on your property.

Why We Prefer LED for Landscape Lighting Installation
When it comes to outdoor landscape lighting, you want to install lights that are both durable and energy efficient. That’s why Benson Enterprises highly recommends LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology.
Energy Efficiency
LED bulbs use about 80% less electricity than incandescent bulbs, and about 50% less than compact fluorescent bulbs (CFLs). In fact, LEDs are the most energy efficient lighting product on the market. That means less energy usage and lower utility bills.
Durability
LED lights are built to last. Resistant to shock, vibration and temperature changes, they’re ideal for outdoor use. In climates with extreme weather conditions like the Rochester area, LED lights will do their job regardless of environmental conditions. You can trust that your landscape will remain beautifully lit in every season.
Eco-Friendly
LED lights are not only more energy efficient than other options, they’re also less toxic. LED lights don’t contain harmful substances like mercury; traditional light bulbs commonly use mer-cury. LEDs are even recyclable, making them friendly to the environment.
Minimal Heat
Unlike traditional bulbs, LEDs produce only minimal heat. They don’t get hot enough to ignite dry leaves or other debris, making them less of a fire hazard. They also won’t cause burns if ac-cidentally touched, improving the safety of your outdoor environment
Expansive Design Options
LED lights are available in a wide range of color and tint options. This allows you to create a truly custom look for your outdoor space. Additionally, it’s very easy to control the direction of LED light without reflectors or shades, further expanding your design options.
