Outdoor Light Fixture Installation

Our partners install and replace the full range of exterior fixtures: porch and entry lights, wall sconces, post lanterns, pathway lights, floodlights, and motion-activated security lighting. They handle the mounting, the weatherproof wiring, and the controls like photocells and timers. If it lights the outside of your home, an electrician in our network can install it.

Swapping a like-for-like fixture is within reach for some homeowners, but new wiring, exterior penetrations, and weatherproof sealing are where mistakes turn into water damage or shock hazards. A licensed electrician makes the connections safe, mounts the fixture so it stays put, and seals everything against moisture. For anything beyond a direct swap, hiring a pro protects your home and your warranty.

Most outdoor fixture installs run between $150 and $500 per fixture, with the final price driven by whether new wiring is needed, how high the mounting point is, and the type of fixture and controls involved. A straightforward replacement on existing wiring sits at the low end, while a new circuit, hardwired floodlights, or motion sensors push it higher. Your electrician gives you a clear quote before any work starts.
