Transform Your Outdoor Space With Custom String Lighting
Many properties in Los Angeles have great outdoor areas that sit underused after dark. With thoughtfully designed string lighting, a simple patio or courtyard can quickly become a favorite spot for family dinners, quiet evenings, or gatherings with friends. Our goal is to help you get more use and enjoyment from the space you already have.
We design each layout to match the way you live or work. That might mean soft, even lighting across a dining area, a gentle canopy of light above a pool, or tidy rows of patio string lights that frame a courtyard. Instead of forcing a standard pattern, we look at furniture placement, walkways, landscaping, and views so the lighting supports how you move and relax outside.
Because we focus on both beauty and function, we pay attention to brightness, spacing, and angles. We work to avoid harsh glare and dark patches, and we plan for comfortable sightlines so you and your guests can see faces, food, and surroundings without distraction. The result is a space that feels welcoming and put together, rather than cluttered or overly bright.
Our String Lighting Design & Installation Process
Clear steps make the project feel manageable, especially when you are balancing a busy schedule. We use a straightforward process so you know what to expect and can stay involved in decisions at each stage.
Here is how we typically approach a new string lighting project:
- Initial conversation: We start with a phone call to talk about your goals, how you currently use the space, and any photos or inspiration you would like to share.
- Complimentary design consultation: Our team visits your property, reviews the layout, and discusses options that fit your style and budget. We look at mounting points, power access, and how string lighting can best enhance the area.
- Custom design plan: We create a tailored design that outlines placement, fixture style, and general light levels. Our designers focus on clean lines, comfortable brightness, and a layout that complements your architecture and landscaping.
- Nighttime demonstration: When appropriate, we provide a nighttime demo so you can see a version of the design in real conditions. This gives you a chance to fine tune placement and feel confident before final installation.
- Professional installation: Our team completes the installation using sturdy hardware, appropriate poles when needed, and careful routing of wiring. We work to protect planting beds, hardscape, and structural finishes while we work.
- Review and adjustments: Once the lights are installed, we walk the space with you, check angles and brightness, and make reasonable adjustments so the final look matches your expectations.
Throughout the process, we are transparent about timing and cost. We talk through options at the design stage so you can make informed choices that align with your priorities and budget.
String Lighting Options For Los Angeles Homes & Businesses
Outdoor spaces in Los Angeles range from compact urban balconies to larger hillside yards and busy commercial patios. We design string lighting solutions that respect those differences and make the most of each setting.
For residential properties, we often install bistro style lighting over patios, decks, and pergolas, create soft overhead lines along garden paths, or add a gentle canopy of light across courtyards and rooftop terraces. We pay attention to views, privacy, and how neighbors might see the lighting so your home feels comfortable and well balanced at night.
For businesses, string lighting can help define outdoor seating, direct foot traffic, and create a consistent brand feel after dark. We frequently work with restaurants, bars, event spaces, and boutique hotels to design lighting that invites guests to linger while still meeting practical needs for visibility and safety.
Our designers also consider local conditions such as multi level or hillside layouts, reflective surfaces, and proximity to nearby structures. By tailoring the design to these factors, we work to provide attractive and practical results for properties across the city.
Quality Fixtures, Careful Installation, & Ongoing Maintenance
String lighting lives outdoors full time, so quality and installation methods matter. We use durable, outdoor rated fixtures and hardware that are designed for long term performance in the Southern California climate. This includes components that handle sun exposure, seasonal changes, and typical moisture conditions.
During installation, our team aims for a neat, intentional appearance. We set appropriate tension so lines are secure without unnecessary sagging, use thoughtful attachment points, and avoid leaving excess cable where it can distract from the design. The result is a clean finish that feels like part of your property, not an afterthought.
Our Shine365 limited lifetime warranty and maintenance program supports your lighting system over time. We offer ongoing service that can include checking connections, adjusting fixtures, and replacing components as needed within the terms of the warranty. This approach reduces guesswork for you and helps your string lighting keep its appearance and performance year after year.
Why Homeowners & Businesses Choose Our String Lighting Team
Choosing a string lighting company involves more than picking fixtures. It is about finding a team that understands design, safety, and long term care. At Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Westside Los Angeles, we focus exclusively on outdoor lighting, which allows our designers to concentrate on how light interacts with architecture, landscaping, and everyday use.
Our personalized design process means we do not rely on one size fits all layouts. We listen to your ideas, show options, and use nighttime demonstrations when appropriate so you can see how the design works before you move forward. This collaboration helps reduce the risk of surprises and supports confident decisions.
During installation, we take care to protect the character of your property. We work neatly, respect planting beds and hardscapes, and leave the site in good order. After the project is complete, our responsive customer service and maintenance support provide a clear path for questions, adjustments, and future updates to your outdoor lighting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is My Patio Or Yard A Good Fit For String Lighting?
Most outdoor spaces can benefit from string lighting with the right design. During your complimentary consultation, we look at the size and shape of your patio or yard, available mounting points such as walls, posts, or trees, and how you plan to use the area. We also review power access and any practical limits like property lines or height restrictions.
If an overhead layout is not ideal, we may propose alternative patterns or combinations of fixtures that still create a comfortable glow. Our goal is to design a solution that suits your specific space rather than forcing a layout that does not feel natural.
How Much Does Professional String Lighting Typically Cost?
The cost of professional string lighting depends on several factors, including the size of the area, the number of runs, fixture style, mounting needs, and any integration with existing lighting. During the design consultation, we discuss your budget and explain how different choices affect pricing so you can prioritize what matters most to you.
Instead of quoting a one size fits all price, we provide a custom proposal based on your property and design preferences. This approach helps ensure that the final plan reflects both your vision and your investment comfort level.
Will Installation Damage My Home, Landscaping, Or Structures?
Our team takes deliberate steps to protect your property while installing string lighting. During the planning phase, we identify appropriate attachment points and support locations that provide stability without unnecessary impact to finishes or plantings. Where hardware is required, we place it thoughtfully and use methods suitable for the surface.
We also pay attention to access routes and work areas so we can move equipment in and out with minimal disruption. While any installation involves some level of activity, our intention is to maintain the beauty of your home and landscape throughout the process.
Can You Coordinate New String Lights With My Existing Outdoor Lighting?
Yes, we can review your current outdoor lighting and design new string lighting to work alongside it. During the consultation, we look at existing fixtures, color temperature, brightness levels, and control systems. This helps us plan a layout that feels cohesive rather than competing for attention.
We may recommend adjustments such as dimming levels, fixture placement, or updated components so the full lighting system works together. Our aim is a unified nighttime look that highlights the best features of your property.
What Maintenance Do String Lights Need Over Time?
String lights generally require periodic checks to keep them looking and performing their best. Over time, outdoor environments can affect connections, fixtures, or hardware. With our Shine365 limited lifetime warranty and maintenance support, we provide guidance and service options to address these needs within the terms of the program.
Typical maintenance can include inspecting connections, confirming alignment and tension, and replacing components when appropriate. By addressing small issues early, we help preserve both the appearance and reliability of your lighting system.
How Long Will Installation Take At My Property?
Installation time varies based on the complexity and scale of the design. A straightforward residential patio project may take a relatively short time, while a large commercial courtyard or multi area layout will naturally require more planning and installation hours. During the proposal stage, we provide an estimated schedule based on the scope of your project.
We coordinate timing with you, discuss access and any special considerations, and work to minimize disruption to your household or business operations while we complete the installation.
Do You Offer Nighttime Demos For String Lighting Designs?
When appropriate for the project, we offer nighttime demonstrations so you can see a version of your design in real conditions before finalizing. These demos give you the chance to evaluate brightness, spacing, and overall feel rather than relying on drawings alone. Many clients find this step helpful when deciding between layout options.
During a demo, our team can make adjustments and gather your feedback. This collaboration helps us refine the design and supports your confidence that the finished installation will align with your expectations.
