What Factors Affect the Cost

Number of Fixtures

Each fixture represents material cost and installation labor. Garden Light LED fixtures run $150–350 each depending on type. More fixtures means more coverage — and more impact.

Surface Complexity

Standard ground-mount installations carry the lowest labor cost. Hardscape installations — tile patios, travertine pool decks, stone walls — require precision core-drilling and grout restoration, adding $75–200 per penetration point.

Wire Runs

Longer wire runs to reach remote trees, gates, or features increase material and labor cost. Runs through hardscape or under driveways cost more than open-soil runs.

Transformer and Controls

A quality transformer sized for a full system runs $300–600. Smart-home integration and timer systems add $150–500 depending on the platform.

Fixture Quality

LED Artistry uses Garden Light LED — locally made in Florida with a 20-year warranty. The price premium over imported fixtures reflects the warranty, local manufacturing, and output consistency over a Florida climate lifespan.

What Is Not Included in Most Quotes

Some outdoor lighting companies quote fixture-only pricing and bill labor separately, or quote system-only pricing and exclude the transformer. Always ask for all-inclusive project pricing.

LED Artistry provides all-inclusive project pricing that covers design, fixtures, transformer, installation, and a post-installation walkthrough. No separate labor billing. No surprise add-ons.

No permits required

Standard landscape lighting in Florida does not require permits. This keeps timelines fast and eliminates scheduling delays.
