Professional Outdoor Lighting for Sonoma County Properties

Sonoma County's stunning properties deserve outdoor lighting that extends their beauty into the evening hours while providing safety and security. From the vineyard estates of Healdsburg and Sonoma to the suburban neighborhoods of Windsor, Santa Rosa, and Rohnert Park, and the wooded properties of Sebastopol, Eleos Electric designs and installs outdoor lighting systems that transform how you use and enjoy your outdoor spaces.

All of our outdoor lighting installations use weather-rated fixtures, properly rated outdoor wiring and conduit, and GFCI-protected circuits as required by code. We handle everything from a single porch light replacement to complete property-wide landscape lighting systems with automated controls.

Landscape Lighting Design & Installation

Landscape lighting transforms your yard, garden, and outdoor living areas after dark. We install low-voltage LED landscape lighting systems that highlight your property's best features — mature oaks, stone walls, water features, garden beds, architectural elements, and specimen plantings. Low-voltage systems (12V) are energy-efficient, safe around children and pets, and produce subtle, natural-looking illumination.

Our landscape lighting techniques include uplighting (highlighting trees and architectural features from below), downlighting (creating moonlight effects from elevated fixtures), cross-lighting (illuminating from multiple angles for depth), and silhouetting (backlighting plants against walls). We also install path lights, well lights, and accent fixtures to create cohesive lighting designs that look beautiful and function perfectly.

For Petaluma ranch properties and Healdsburg wine estates, we design systems that cover extensive acreage while keeping energy costs manageable. For compact urban yards in Santa Rosa and Rohnert Park, we create intimate lighting designs that maximize the impact of every fixture.

Security Lighting

Effective security lighting is one of the most cost-effective crime deterrents available. We install motion-activated flood lights, dusk-to-dawn fixtures, and integrated camera/light systems at entry points, dark corners, side yards, and other vulnerable areas around your property. Motion-activated lights are particularly effective — they draw immediate attention to movement while conserving energy when no activity is detected.

We position security lights strategically to eliminate blind spots and avoid creating harsh glare that could actually reduce visibility. All security lighting is connected to dedicated circuits and, where appropriate, battery-backup systems to ensure your lights work even during power outages — a common occurrence in Sonoma County during winter storms and PSPS events.

Deck, Patio & Outdoor Living Lighting

Sonoma County's Mediterranean climate makes outdoor living a year-round lifestyle, and proper lighting extends your deck, patio, or outdoor kitchen well into the evening. We install recessed deck lights, post cap lights, step lighting, string light connections (with permanent weatherproof outlets), and overhead patio fixtures. Every installation is designed to create ambiance while providing enough light for safe navigation and food preparation.

For covered patios and pergolas, we install ceiling fans with integrated lights, pendant fixtures, and recessed can lights rated for damp or wet locations. For open-air spaces, we wire permanent mounting points for commercial-grade string lights and install GFCI-protected outdoor outlets for portable lighting and appliances.

Motion Sensors & Timer Systems

Automated controls make outdoor lighting effortless. We install photocell sensors (dusk-to-dawn), motion detectors, astronomical timers (which automatically adjust to seasonal sunrise/sunset times), and smart outdoor switches that you can control from your phone. These systems ensure your lights are on when needed and off when they're not, saving energy and extending fixture life.
