Landscaping Lighting in St. Louis, MO
Outdoor Lighting Design & Installation by Lawn Systems
The right lighting changes everything. After dark, a well-lit yard feels warm and welcoming. It looks beautiful from the street. It feels safer for your family and guests. And it gives you more time to enjoy the outdoor spaces you’ve worked hard to create.
At Lawn Systems, we design and install custom landscaping lighting for homes and businesses throughout the St. Louis area. Whether you want soft path lighting, dramatic uplighting on trees, or accent lights around a patio, we build a system that fits your property — and your vision.
More Than Just Looks
Most homeowners start thinking about outdoor lighting because they want their home to look better at night. That’s a great reason. But the benefits go much further than curb appeal.
Good landscaping lighting makes your walkways, steps, and driveway easy to navigate after dark. It reduces the shadowy spots around your home that burglars count on. And it extends your outdoor living — so a cool evening on the patio doesn’t have to end when the sun goes down.
Whether you’re at home relaxing or entertaining guests, landscape lighting lets you get the most out of every inch of your yard.
Custom Landscape Lighting Designed for Your Property
No two properties are the same, so we never use a one-size-fits-all approach. We take the time to look at your yard, your home, and how you actually use your outdoor space.
From there, we build a lighting plan around the features that matter most to you. That might include:
- Walkways, paths, and driveway edges
- Trees, shrubs, and garden beds
- The architectural features of your home
- Patios, decks, and outdoor living areas
- Steps and elevation changes
The goal is lighting that feels natural — not too bright, not too dim. A system that enhances your landscape instead of overpowering it.
Because Lawn Systems also provides full landscaping services, we understand how lighting fits into the bigger picture of your outdoor space.
Energy-Efficient LED Fixtures Built to Last
We install architectural-grade LED lighting fixtures designed for long-term outdoor use. LED lighting uses very little electricity, which keeps your energy costs low. And modern LED fixtures are built to last — many carry warranties of 15 years or more.
Our lighting systems offer a wide range of options, including different fixture styles and finishes, adjustable brightness and color temperature, and both electric and solar-powered choices. We’ll help you find the right fit for your home and budget.
Landscaping Lighting That Works with the Rest of Your Yard
One thing that sets Lawn Systems apart is that we offer a full range of outdoor services — not just lighting. That matters because the best outdoor spaces are planned as a whole.
Many of our clients in the St. Louis area add lighting at the same time they’re making other improvements. New landscaping features look even better when they’re lit well at night. An irrigation system keeps your lawn and plants healthy, so there’s always something worth lighting. Proper drainage protects your landscaping investment for years to come.
When these pieces work together, the results are far more impressive than any one service on its own.

Frequently Asked Questions About Landscape Lighting in St. Louis
How much does landscape lighting cost?
Every project is different. The cost depends on the size of your property, the number of fixtures, and the type of system you choose. The best way to get an accurate idea is to schedule a free consultation. We’ll take a look at your property and give you a straightforward quote with no pressure.
How long does installation take?
Most residential landscape lighting installations are completed in one day. Larger or more complex projects may take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline before we start.
Are LED landscape lights really worth it?
Yes. LED fixtures use a fraction of the electricity that older halogen lights required, which adds up to real savings over time. They also last much longer — often 15 years or more — so you’re not constantly replacing bulbs. For most homeowners in the St. Louis area, LED is the clear choice.
Can landscape lighting be added to an existing yard?
Absolutely. We add lighting to existing landscapes all the time. You don’t need to be doing a full landscaping project to get an outdoor lighting system installed.
Do you offer solar-powered landscape lighting?
Yes. We offer both hardwired electric systems and solar-powered options. Our team can help you decide which is the better fit based on your yard layout and lighting goals.
Do you install lighting for commercial properties?
Yes. We work with both residential homeowners and commercial property owners throughout the St. Louis area. Commercial outdoor lighting improves safety, enhances curb appeal, and can make a property more visible and inviting after dark.
