Show off the details that make your home unique—while adding comfort and safety after dark.
Smart, app-controlled LED lighting for holidays, events, and everyday beauty
At ET Lighting, we design and install precise accent and downlighting that frames architecture, textures, and outdoor living spaces. Our systems pair pro‑grade fixtures with app‑controlled, programmable control via Haven Lighting—so you can set scenes, schedules, and brightness right from your phone.

Comfortable, Glare‑Controlled Light: We use shields, louvers, and proper beam spreads so the light lands exactly where you want it.
Smart App Control: Create scenes, set timers, and adjust brightness or color from anywhere.
Energy‑Efficient LED: Bright, beautiful results with low power draw and long life.
Professional Design & Install: Clean wiring, tidy penetrations, and dusk‑time aiming to fine‑tune the look.
What We Install
Architectural Accent (Wall Wash & Graze)
Even, elegant illumination that highlights texture without hot spots. Great for brick, stone, columns, and facades.
Soffit & Under‑Eave Downlights
Discreet fixtures that cast a soft, controlled pool of light down exterior walls, pillars, and entryways—perfect for a welcoming, high‑end look.
Moonlighting (Tree‑Mounted Downlights)
Fixtures placed up in mature trees to cast a natural, dappled light that mimics moonlight across patios, lawns, and paths.
Step, Stair & Wall Lights
Low‑profile fixtures to safely define transitions on porches, decks, and retaining walls.
Niche & Feature Lighting
Target sculptures, address numbers, water features, and outdoor kitchens with narrow beams for crisp highlights.
Smarter Control
With our smart transformer and mobile app, your accent and downlights are easy to control and automate. Save everyday scenes (e.g., Warm Welcome), set sunrise/sunset schedules, and dim by zone. Prefer classic white most nights? Choose adjustable‑white for elegant everyday lighting—and switch to full color any time with compatible fixtures for holidays and game days.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is downlighting harsh or glaring?
Done right, no. We use proper beam angles, shielding, and mounting heights to keep light comfortable and in your field—not your eyes.
Can I use color with accent/down lights?
Yes, with compatible fixtures. Most nights clients prefer warm white; color is great for holidays and events.
Can I control brightness by area?
Absolutely. We group zones (e.g., entry, patio, trees) so you can dim or schedule each independently in the app.
Will it bother my neighbors?
We design to minimize spill light and aim away from windows and property lines. Dimming and schedules keep it neighbor‑friendly.
What about reliability and warranty?
Our fixtures and components are built for the outdoors and backed by manufacturer warranty. We’ll review specific coverage for the models you select.
How much does it cost?
Cost depends on fixture count, finishes, and whether you choose adjustable‑white or color‑capable fixtures. We’ll tailor a design to your goals and budget.
