Professional Landscape Lighting Installation in Pinellas & Hillsborough County
Transform your property into a nighttime masterpiece with Florida’s premier low-voltage outdoor lighting experts.
About Us
Illuminate Your Home with Custom, Low-Voltage LED Lighting
Florida’s harsh climate—characterized by intense humidity, salt air, and heavy seasonal rains—is brutal on cheap lighting fixtures. That is why we exclusively install Unique Lighting Systems.
Unlike big-box store alternatives, these professional-grade systems offer:
Solid Brass & Copper Construction: Engineered to patina naturally and never rust or corrode in the Florida salt air.
The Patented HUB System: A revolutionary wiring method that ensures consistent voltage to every fixture, preventing the “dimming” effect common in older systems.
Lifetime Warranty: We stand behind our work and the products we use. Most Unique fixtures carry a limited lifetime warranty for ultimate peace of mind.
Energy-Efficient LED Technology: Save up to 80% on energy costs compared to traditional halogen bulbs while achieving a warmer, more elegant glow.
The Hidden Dangers Lurking in Your Tampa Yard After Dark
Your yard demands endless battles against Florida’s harsh weather, with cheap fixtures that corrode in salty air and bad installations not using the HUB system, causing outdated lighting to fade, flicker, or fail in humidity and storms, leaving spaces dark and unusable at night.
They’re frustrated, embarrassed, and secretly envious of neighbors with flawless, glowing yards, while theirs drags down the home’s vibe and feels neglected after sunset.
Wrong Fixtures
You deserve an outdoor haven that endures and delights with safe, stunning illumination—seeing the light effect, not the fixture—not one that forces constant fixes and robs your joy in those balmy evenings.
Do it Once
Do it Right
As a landscape lighting pro who relies on Unique Lighting Systems’ HUB system, I live by one rule: do it once and do it right. Daisy-chaining creates buried splices that corrode, cause voltage drops, and lead to uneven lighting and frequent repairs. With Unique’s Satellite™ or Equalizer™ HUBs, we run a reliable homerun wire to each buried, weatherproof HUB, then connect each fixture’s 25-foot lead directly—no buried splices, up to 80% fewer connections, consistent brightness, and easy future adjustments. Choose the HUB system upfront for a maintenance-free installation that delivers stunning, reliable performance year after year—no callbacks, just lasting beauty.
Why We Use Solid Brass: The Secret to Long-Term Landscape Lighting in Hillsborough County
In the salty, humid air of St. Petersburg and Pinellas County, “standard” outdoor lights don’t last. Aluminum fixtures often flake, corrode, and fail within just a few seasons. At JR Landscapes Service, we prioritize your long-term enjoyment by installing solid sand-cast brass fixtures.
The Benefits of Professional-Grade Brass:
-
Corrosion Resistance: Unlike powder-coated aluminum, solid brass does not rust or peel. It is uniquely suited for the Florida climate, standing up to salt spray and heavy tropical rains.
-
Natural Aesthetic Aging: Over time, brass develops a beautiful natural patina that blends seamlessly into your garden and hardscaping. It looks like a high-end architectural feature, not a plastic add-on.
-
Extreme Durability: Brass is a “buy it once” investment. It handles the heat of the Florida sun without becoming brittle, ensuring your investment stays functional and beautiful for decades.
-
Better Seal Integrity: Our brass fixtures feature moisture-tight seals that protect the internal LED components, preventing the “flickering” issues common with cheaper big-box store alternatives.
Don’t settle for fixtures that need replacing every two years. Choose the durability of brass and enjoy a lifetime of elegant evening ambiance.

FAQ
Landscape Lighting
What is the average cost to install landscape lighting?
In St. Petersburg, FL, professional landscape lighting installation typically ranges from $2,000 to $5,000, with an average around $3,250 for a standard low-voltage system including fixtures, wiring, and labor. Factors like yard size, number of fixtures (often $100-$200 each), and salty air-resistant materials can adjust this—basic setups start at $1,695, while larger ones hit $6,000+. At JR Landscaping, we focus on value with Unique Lighting systems that minimize long-term costs through durability and efficiency.
Is professional landscape lighting worth it?
Absolutely—professional installation ensures safety, longevity against Florida's elements, and stunning effects where you see the light, not the fixtures. DIY risks uneven results or failures in salty air, but pros like us use HUB systems for reliable, low-maintenance setups that boost home value by 5-15% and enhance security. It's an investment in pride and peace, saving you time and headaches.
Do you need a license to install landscape lighting in Florida?
In Florida, a license is required for installations involving wiring or modifications to electrical systems—typically a limited energy (low-voltage) specialty license if not an electrical contractor. However, there's an exemption for plug-in, factory-corded low-voltage lights without structural changes. At JR Landscaping, we're fully licensed and compliant, so you avoid fines or risks—hiring unlicensed can lead to penalties up to $5,000.
Who makes the best landscape lighting?
Unique Lighting Systems stands out as the best for St. Petersburg's coastal climate, offering durable brass fixtures, Vivid LEDs, and HUB wiring that resist salty air while delivering pure light effects. Other top brands include Kichler for stylish variety and FX Luminaire for smart features, but Unique excels in longevity and low maintenance. We exclusively use Unique for proven results in Florida.
What Our Clients Say
At JR Landscape Services, customer satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do.
Our backyard was a constant headache—soggy after every rain, plants dying in the heat, and it looked nothing like the beautiful home we love. JR Landscaping completely changed that. Their design team listened to every detail we wanted, showed us incredible 3D visuals, and then installed a stunning low-maintenance landscape with native plants, elegant pavers, and perfect drainage. No more weekend battles, no more embarrassment when friends come over. Our yard is now the neighborhood showpiece—serene, lush, and effortless. The crew was professional, clean, and finished on time. Best investment we’ve made in our home!
After two failed DIY attempts and a bad experience with another company, we were nervous—but JR Landscaping restored our trust immediately. Their free consultation felt like talking to a friend who really understood our frustration with Florida weather ruining everything. They designed a resilient, low-maintenance paradise with layered planting, a custom patio, and lighting that makes evenings magical. The install crew was respectful, efficient, and left the site immaculate. We now have the luxurious retreat we always pictured—zero upkeep headaches, huge pride every time we step outside, and noticeably higher home value. Worth every penny.
As busy parents, we had no time to fight a yard that looked tired and mismatched with our home. JR’s design team created something truly special: a modern, tropical-inspired layout with drought-tolerant plants, permeable pavers, and a play-friendly area that our kids adore. The 3D preview let us see exactly what we’d get—and the reality exceeded it. Installation was seamless, professional, and fast. No more muddy patches, no more guilt over neglected grass. Our backyard is now an inviting oasis we love showing off. JR didn’t just landscape—they gave us back our weekends and our pride.”
We envied neighbors with gorgeous yards while ours felt like an afterthought—faded beds, erosion, constant repairs. JR Landscaping turned it around with a brilliant, Florida-proof design: native flora that blooms year-round, elegant retaining walls, and integrated hardscapes that tie everything together. The crew executed it perfectly—on time, on budget, no mess. Now our outdoor space is elegant, durable, and low-maintenance. We host dinners under the stars without stress, and our home feels complete. The deep satisfaction of finally having the block’s best yard is priceless. Thank you, JR!
