Landscape Lighting Installation That Stands Out

At Ungrady Inc, we install landscape lighting that makes your property look better, feel safer, and stay useful after dark. Good outdoor lighting does more than brighten a walkway. It highlights the best parts of your home, improves visibility around steps and entrances, and helps you enjoy patios, seating areas, and outdoor living spaces at night.

We are a locally owned company serving Cleveland, Ohio and surrounding communities. With 10 years of combined hands-on experience, we focus on clean installation, quality materials, and lighting layouts that fit the property instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach. Our goal is simple: give you lighting that looks great, works reliably, and adds real value to your home.

What landscape lighting can do for your property

A well-planned outdoor lighting system brings together beauty, safety, and function. Many homeowners call us because they want better curb appeal, but the benefits go much further than appearance.

• Boosts curb appeal: Lighting adds depth, contrast, and a polished look to your home’s exterior, foundation beds, trees, and architectural features.
• Improves safety: Path lights, step lights, and entry lighting help reduce trips and falls around walkways, stairs, driveways, and transitions in grade.
• Extends outdoor use: Patios, retaining walls, sitting areas, and backyard spaces become more inviting and practical after sunset.
• Highlights landscape features: Uplighting and accent lighting can draw attention to specimen trees, planting beds, stonework, and hardscape details.
• Adds security: Better visibility around dark corners, side yards, and entrances can help your property feel more secure.

Our landscape lighting installation process

We take the time to plan the lighting layout so the final result feels balanced and natural. Too little light leaves areas unsafe. Too much light can look harsh and take away from the property. We work to find the right mix.

1. Property walkthrough and consultation: We look at your home, landscaping, walkways, driveway, patio, and key focal points. We also talk through your goals, whether that is better nighttime visibility, a stronger front entry look, backyard ambiance, or all of the above.
2. Lighting design and fixture placement: We recommend fixture types and locations based on the layout of the property. This may include path lights, spotlights, accent lights, well lights, or other low-voltage landscape lighting options.
3. Professional installation: We install wiring, transformers, fixtures, and connections carefully to protect the appearance of your lawn and beds. Clean routing and proper spacing matter.
4. System testing and adjustments: After installation, we test the system, adjust fixture angles, and fine-tune brightness and coverage to create the best effect.
5. Final walkthrough: We review the completed lighting with you so you understand how the system works and what has been installed.

Areas we commonly light

Landscape lighting can be installed in many parts of the property. We often design systems around the areas homeowners use most and the areas that deserve more attention at night.

• Front walkways and entry paths
• Driveways and approach areas
• Front porch and main entrance
• Steps, grade changes, and side yard paths
• Foundation plantings and garden beds
• Trees, shrubs, and ornamental landscaping
• Patios and entertaining spaces
• Retaining walls, stone features, and hardscape edges
• Backyard seating areas and outdoor living zones

Types of lighting we install

Every property is different, so we match the fixture style and beam effect to the job. Common landscape lighting options include:

• Path lights: Ideal for sidewalks, garden paths, and entrances where you want low, even light.
• Spotlights and uplights: Used to highlight trees, columns, stonework, or architectural details.
• Accent lighting: Great for creating depth and drawing attention to focal points in the landscape design.
• Step and area lighting: Helps make stairs, elevation changes, and gathering spaces safer and easier to navigate.
• Feature lighting: Used around patios, retaining walls, and select hardscape elements to create a finished nighttime look.

Why proper design matters

Landscape lighting should look intentional. The best systems are not random fixtures placed around the yard. They are designed to guide the eye, improve movement through the property, and create a warm, welcoming look from the street to the backyard.

We pay attention to spacing, beam direction, fixture placement, and how light interacts with plants, stone, lawn areas, and the structure of your home. This matters because poor placement can cause glare, dark spots, or an uneven look. A professionally installed system gives you a cleaner result and better long-term performance.

Great fit for hardscapes and outdoor living spaces

Because we also work on retaining walls, patios, and other hardscape features, we understand how lighting ties into the full outdoor space. If your property includes a patio, seating wall, walkway, or other landscape construction, we can help create a lighting plan that complements those features and brings the whole design together after sunset.

Lighting also works well as part of a broader property improvement plan. If drainage, grading, excavation, or site prep is part of your project, planning lighting at the right stage can help make installation smoother and more efficient.

Built for Cleveland-area properties

Homes in Cleveland and nearby areas often have a mix of mature trees, changing grades, front walks, and backyard gathering spaces. We install landscape lighting with those real-world conditions in mind. Whether your property is in Mayfield, Willoughby Hills, Gates Mills, Solon, Hudson, Brecksville, Mentor, Chardon, or another surrounding area, we tailor the layout to your home and landscape instead of forcing a standard package.
