Illuminate Your Property With Landscape Lighting

If you like spending time outside during the spring and summer, think about how beautiful it would look if your yard was lit up at night. Landscape lighting is one of the most dramatic improvements that you can make to a home or garden, regardless of size, shape or elevation. When it comes your custom landscape lighting needs, we’ll bring your ideas to life!

Why Install Landscape Lighting?

Ambiance and Entertainment:  Create the perfect atmosphere for outdoor entertaining with landscape lighting.  Illuminate pools, decks, outdoor kitchens, patios, recreational spaces and sitting areas long after the sun sets. Landscape lighting sets the tone for any occasion and gives your guests an experience they will not forget.

Beauty: Accentuate the architecture of your home while showcasing its artistry and charm.  Allow your guests to experience the beauty of your fountains, flowers, trees and shrubs at any time of day.  We will construct dramatic scenes that reveal the subtle contours, shapes and textures of your property.

Security: Lighting your home is an effective way to deter residential crime and keep out unwanted intruders. Although lighting cannot prevent crime, statistics show that a well lit home is much more likely to deter potential criminals.

Floodlights: Motion tripped floodlights are a great way to protect your home and save energy at the same time. Your floodlights only turn on when you need them instead of running all night long.  

Safety: Avoid any accidents with a well-lit yard or garden. Landscape lighting accents pathways, stairs or any other potentially hazardous areas within your yard, helping you to navigate safely around your property, while enjoying its beauty at the same time.

At Mr. Electric of Tampa Bay, landscape lighting design and installation are just a few of our specialties. Ready to make your property shine? Contact us today at (813) 280-4998.

What Kind Of Lighting Do You Need For Your Home?

Does your home have all the lighting qualities you would like? Adding new lighting to your home can have a variety of benefits, but what kind of lighting do you actually need? Between direct and indirect lighting, safety and security lighting and decor lighting the choices are endless.

What Kind Of Lighting Do You Need?

• Direct lighting: Direct or task lighting focuses on work space and function.
• Indirect lighting: Indirect or ambient lighting enhances the feel of an area as well as the overall lighting of the space.
• Safety and security: Quality of lighting is essential in safety and security lighting placed along exterior walkways, sidewalks, and entries. Too dim and it will fail to ward off intruders, too bright and it will disturb neighbors and increase energy costs.
• Décor: Wall sconces, directional lighting, and more can create focus and highlight art, architectural, and botanical elements of your home.

Once you decide on the type of lighting you need, you can take it to the next level by incorporating landscape lighting design and outdoor soffit lighting. Impress your friends and family by controlling them wirelessly.

Mr. Electric of Tampa Bay covers complete landscape lighting design solutions for your home that can dramatically improve the beauty and security of your property. Similarly, outdoor soffit lighting provides an excellent opportunity for security and ambiance. You can make any of these options more energy efficient by controlling your lighting solutions with a small remote or smartphone.

Lighting To Transform Your Bathroom

With the right lighting in your bathroom and kitchen, a homeowner can change the way others view your home. Highlight your room's best features and provide optimum functionality with lighting services by Mr. Electric of Tampa Bay! We can help increase the value of your home! Are you looking to transform your space? Check out the following tips for improving your bathroom:

Cabinet Lighting: Add lights under the cabinets to highlight the colors in your countertops and cabinets. It can also be used to illuminate the walkway at night.

Mirror and Vanity Lighting: Good lighting above your mirrors reduce the amount of shadows in your bathroom giving the appearance of a larger room.

Ceiling Fixture: A ceiling light can add extra depth to a room, provide an extra element of sophistication, and make the room appear larger.

Shower: Having a light specifically for the shower is an especially useful feature for those who want to save energy or are trying not to wake your spouse early in the morning. A light over the shower prevents you from having to turn all of the bathroom lights on.

Bathtub: Like the shower light, a bathtub light will illuminate the area in use. Why not put a dimmer over the tub, creating a relaxing mood.

Canned Lighting: Don't have high ceilings? Canned lighting is a great option that can be placed in strategic parts of a room to create a more intimate ambiance or open space.

Toilet: Focused halogen or flood lights are great for over the toilet especially if the toilet is separated by a wall or door. This is also a great place for a dimmer to help those mid-night bathroom goers.

Accent lighting: Accent lighting will highlight any artwork or architecture that you would like to draw attention to.

Indirect lighting: Hidden lights add a soft and soothing touch to a room and are great additions to nooks and coves.

Electrical Safety During Storms

Weather and storms can tamper with the electricity we are so used to having. Unfortunately, there is not much a homeowner can do when it comes to preventing weather related problems. There are few things more powerful than mother nature. Sometimes your power may flicker, other times it may go out entirely. In either circumstance it is essential to remain calm. If your lights go out check to see if your neighbors still have power. If they do, it is likely the problem is inside your home. Unplug all appliances with electric components, like microwaves, televisions, and computers. This will prevent damage from voltage surges when the electricity is restored. You will then need to check your main fuses or circuit breakers to see if they have blown. Sometimes restoring your electricity could be as simple as replacing a fuse. Check out more helpful tips below:

• Keep your refrigerator and freezer doors closed during the time that the power is out to keep food fresh.
• If your power fails during the summer, air conditioners should be turned off and not turned on again until several minutes after the power is restored.
• In an extended power outage, unplug everything in the home and turn off the breakers. You may want to leave a single light circuit on as a notification of when the power is back on.
• Contact your energy supplier.
