Serving Sonoma, Marin & Napa County since 2012
Low-voltage LED landscape lighting designed and installed across Sonoma, Marin, and Napa County. We design for how you actually use your property at night — not just how it looks in a photo.
A few path lights from a big-box store, pointed in random directions, on a timer nobody adjusts. It's the most common outdoor lighting setup in the North Bay. It makes an $800,000 property look like a parking lot.
"Lighting is the last thing people budget for and the first thing guests notice."
Good lighting is designed the same way the landscape is — from the property outward, with intention. We place every fixture by hand during a dusk walkthrough. We adjust until it's right. Then we wire it properly so it stays that way.
Lower energy draw, longer fixture life, better color quality. We don't install halogen.
We place and adjust every fixture in actual darkness. Not guesswork on a sunny afternoon.
Timer, zone, and app-based control options. Set it and forget it, or adjust by season.
Every fixture answers a question — what to reveal, where to guide, how to live outside after sunset, and what to keep safe.
Trees, specimen plants, and architectural features brought into focus after dark. The difference between invisible and remarkable.
Safe navigation from arrival to entry. Placed to guide without flooding — warm pools of light, not a runway.
Patios, pergolas, dining areas, and kitchens lit for actual use. Ambient overhead, task lighting where needed, no harsh shadows.
Perimeter coverage that deters without making your property feel like a facility. Effective and discreet.
From the first consult to the final adjustment, here's what a lighting project with Oak River looks like.
We walk the property with you — day and, when possible, at dusk — to understand how you use the space and where the opportunities are.
A zone-by-zone layout specifying fixture type, placement, beam angle, color temperature, and wiring runs. Written scope and fixed price before anything starts.
All fixtures installed by our crew — not subcontractors. Conduit buried correctly, connections weatherproofed, fixtures locked in place.
Properly sized transformer, timer or smart controller configured to your schedule. Zone-by-zone control so you can adjust by season.
We return at dusk to walk the finished install. Fixtures get adjusted by eye — beam angles, intensity, aim — until it looks right in actual darkness.
Fixtures shift. Plants grow. We offer seasonal service visits to re-aim, clean lenses, check connections, and keep the system performing as designed.
All installs adjusted at dusk. Every fixture placed by hand.
About cost, fixtures, smart controls, and what the process actually looks like. Call us if yours isn't here.
The consultation is free. We come to you, walk the property, and follow up with a written proposal — zones, fixtures, and a fixed price. No obligation to proceed.
