HOME EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Home Exterior Lighting and Architectural Lighting in Covington, Louisiana

The exterior of your home makes the first impression on neighbors, visitors, and even potential buyers. Carefully designed lighting not only showcases your property’s best features but also brings comfort, security, and elegance to every corner of your outdoor space. Home exterior lighting has become one of the most effective ways to highlight architectural details, increase curb appeal, and extend the enjoyment of outdoor living spaces well into the evening hours.

Throughout Covington, St. Tammany Parish, and Tangipahoa Parish, homeowners are recognizing the value of investing in professional architectural lighting. By combining design expertise with high-quality fixtures, LIT Outdoor Lighting creates systems that are both functional and beautiful, turning homes into striking landmarks after dark.

Why Invest in Exterior Home Lighting?

Exterior lighting for homes is more than a decorative upgrade. It serves multiple purposes, each of which enhances the way you experience your property:

Increased Security: A well-lit exterior discourages unwanted visitors and ensures you can safely navigate walkways, driveways, and entry points at night.

Improved Curb Appeal: Architectural lighting emphasizes unique design elements such as stonework, rooflines, and landscaping features, allowing your home to stand out in the neighborhood.

Extended Outdoor Living: Patios, decks, and gardens feel more inviting when illuminated, giving you more opportunities to enjoy your outdoor areas.

Property Value Boost: Homebuyers are often drawn to houses with professionally installed lighting systems, viewing them as both a practical and aesthetic investment.

Architectural Lighting Design That Fits Your Style

Every home in Louisiana has its own character, and exterior lighting should complement that individuality rather than overshadow it. Professional architectural lighting considers the layout, design, and specific features of your home. By combining different techniques, your property can achieve a layered lighting effect that highlights form while maintaining balance.

Some of the most popular design techniques include:

Uplighting
Ideal for emphasizing tall trees, columns, or textured walls.
Downlighting
Perfect for illuminating patios, pathways, and entrances from above.
Pathway Lighting
Adds safety and elegance to walkways, driveways, and garden paths.

Accent Lighting
Draws attention to architectural features such as arches, windows, and rooflines.
Silhouette and Shadowing
Creates dramatic effects by playing with depth and light placement.

By blending these methods, LIT Outdoor Lighting provides solutions that feel seamless, natural, and tailored to each home.

3) Design Planning

4) Installation

Expert placement of fixtures to ensure long-term durability, safety, and effectiveness.

5) Final Walkthrough

A review of the system to confirm that the design matches your expectations and delivers the intended results.

This structured approach guarantees that every detail is handled with care and that the finished system works in harmony with your home’s architecture.

What our customers are saying

I cannot recommend LIT Outdoor Lighting highly enough. The lighting is gorgeous, they are very reasonably priced and the install went smoothly with no hitches. They took the time to thoroughly walk me through the online app to control lights and were professional and easy to work with. I will definitely be using them again in the future!

I love my new lights, they make the house look amazing and so much brighter! I sent an email and Jonathan reached out immediately, the lights were installed a week later! The installation process was so quick and professional. The prices are reasonable and they do all the work, and everything was placed strategically. They did a great job and we're very happy with the results!

Outstanding job!! They did what they said for a fair price. Results are excellent!!! Everything works as it should. The installation involved laying over 450 foot of wire and I can't easily see the evidence of all that digging...that's only one day in and I saw them doing the digging! Yes, I'd call them again!

Our first home in Covington Louisiana and we wanted it to be beautifully decorated for Christmas. I reached out to Melissa and Jonathan at LIT to set up an appointment. They were so punctual and wonderful to work with! They gave us some ideas done up on their iPad to show us and we were amazed. They came out a week later to do the install and it came out beautifully! We see so many people slowly drive by our house and stop to look. They did such a great job! Our first experience with them was so great! We will definitely use them again and again! Thank you Melissa and Jonathan!

If I could give more that 5 stars for this company and their services I would. I was a bit hesitant at first thinking “how adding outdoor lighting would benefit the look to our home?” Y'all, I was shocked and beyond impressed with the difference in our before and after. Not only does it add beautiful curb appeal, it also adds a sense of safety with how lit up it is in the evenings. I seriously and HIGHLY recommend LIT Outdoor Lighting. They are knowledgeable, quick and professional, as well as very affordable services.
