Professional Deck Lighting Installation in the Louisville Metro Area

Professional deck lighting installation in Louisville, KY requires more than surface-mounted fixtures. SunnySide Decks, a trusted deck lighting company in Louisville, KY, manages the installation by mapping wire runs and voltage drops within the structural digital model. Recessing LED components into posts and joists protects the electrical system from the weather and keeps wires hidden from view.

Deck Lighting FAQs

Is deck lighting expensive to run?
We use low-voltage LED systems that draw very little power, minimizing the impact on monthly utility bills.
In many cases, we can retrofit lighting by carefully routing wires through the existing structure.
Do the lights attract bugs?
LED bulbs produce much less heat than traditional bulbs, which generally results in fewer insects being drawn to the deck.
Most systems stay connected to an automatic transformer with a timer or a cell phone app for easy management.
