You should contact a professional if:

  • Multiple lights stop working
  • Breakers or GFCIs keep tripping
  • Wiring damage is suspected
  • Adjustments no longer fix the issue

Extreme weather, heavy rain, and freezing temperatures can sometimes affect connections or fixtures, especially if the system is older or was improperly installed.

Underground wiring can be damaged during:

  • Mulching
  • Planting
  • Edging
  • Drainage or irrigation work

We recommend having lighting lines marked before any digging.

Frequent bulb failure may be caused by:

  • Over-voltage
  • Poor-quality bulbs
  • Moisture entering the fixture

Using quality LED bulbs and proper installation helps extend bulb life.

Possible causes include:

  • Overloaded transformer
  • Timer or photocell malfunction
  • Loose wiring connections

A professional inspection ensures safe and reliable operation.

This is usually related to:

  • A photocell that is shaded, dirty, or failing
  • Timer settings that need adjustment

Cleaning or repositioning the photocell often solves the problem.

Flickering is commonly due to:

  • Loose connections
  • Moisture in wire splices
  • A failing bulb
  • Transformer issues
  • Voltage issue

This should be addressed promptly to avoid further damage.

Dim lighting is often caused by:

  • Voltage drop from improper wiring layout
  • Too many fixtures on one circuit
  • Long wire runs
  • Aging bulbs

Proper system design and transformer sizing help prevent this.

This is usually caused by:

  • A loose or corroded wire connection
  • Damaged underground wiring
  • A failed bulb or fixture

A technician can quickly locate and repair the issue.

Common causes include:

  • Tripped GFCI outlet or breaker
  • Timer or photocell set incorrectly
  • Transformer turned off or unplugged
  • Loose wire connections
  • Break in the wire

If these items check out and the lights still don’t work, professional service may be needed.
