Professional Outdoor Lighting Installation
There’s no “one-size-fits-all” outdoor lighting plan, nor should there be. At Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals, we customize and tailor your outdoor lighting design to your property and your needs. All of our systems are designed at night — this way both you and the design team can see exactly how the system will look once its finished, allowing you to “test drive” the system before you purchase it.
Lighting Products
In the long run, the most expensive lighting system you can purchase is the one that doesn’t end up working. That’s why we at Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals use the best quality products for your outdoor lighting system, made right here in America and accurately configured for your system.
Exterior Lighting Installation
Our crew employs only the very best people and that’s because we stake our reputation on ensuring quality installations on your home or business property. Our installs are professional, efficient, and neat. We safely install all underground cabling and replace landscaping to ensure that you can’t see where the lines are buried. Our customers often choose a digital timer for controlling the system and a low voltage transformer is installed on all of our systems.

Carolina outdoor lighting recently did a project on our house and it looks awesome! I’m so pleased with the results!! After talking to them on the phone, they told me they do night consults where they give you an idea of what your house would look like etc. Doug came out and I was sold! They worked with us on how many lights and really made it work amazingly and with less lights than others quoted!
We plan to add additionally lights later on and I’ll definitely be calling them! If you’re looking for landscape lighting, look no further!

We had Carolina Outdoor Lighting install all of the lighting in the front of our home as well as around our backyard and pool area, and we could not be happier with the results. The entire experience was outstanding from start to finish.
Eric and Kevin were both wonderful to work with—professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely committed to making sure everything turned out perfectly. They took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and offered great suggestions that truly elevated the look of our home.
The quality of their work is exceptional. Our outdoor spaces look absolutely beautiful, and the lighting has completely transformed the atmosphere of both the front of our home and our pool area. The attention to detail and craftsmanship really set them apart.
If you’re considering outdoor lighting, I cannot recommend Carolina Outdoor Lighting enough. They exceeded our expectations in every way, and we are so grateful for their hard work and expertise!

They did a fantastic job! I was impressed from the introductory call (I discovered them with a google search) to the demo lighting to the final installation. They answered all questions, provided excellent feedback, and truly put in the effort to make the final design look as professional and beautiful as possible. I would confidently recommend them to anyone who is looking to beautify their home and enhance the functional outdoor lighting.

COPL was a great company to work with from start to finish. They really listened to what we wanted and worked with us to create a wonderful result within our budget. The crew was incredibly friendly and they did a wonderful job cleaning up after themselves.
Mel L.
Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals recently installed lighting to the front of my home and I’m absolutely in love with it. Kevin, Greg and Parker were all fantastic to work with to get this job completed. This team is highly skilled and professional at what they do. Installation was seamless and the end result is beautiful! I highly recommend this company, you will not be disappointed.
Steven K.
I’ve been using these guys for over 10 years. Always friendly, thorough and professional. They installed almost 20 lights for us, and in the rare occasion we’ve had problems (usually our fault), they are quick to come back out and fix whatever we’ve broken. Their prices are competitive and their service techs are top notch. Can’t say enough good things about them.
Tom F.
We have been customers of Carolina Outdoor Lighting since arriving in North Carolina from California six years ago. I have to tell you that the team that does customer support knows what those words mean. Mike was here and identified a couple of things that needed to change as we've add lights every year for several years now. He came through, checked all our buried lines and added a new one to get us in the right balance. You guys are amazing! Thank you!
P L.
I have used COL on 2 houses now and they never disappoint. They have insightful creative suggestions, they are reasonably priced and dependable. Did a great job and I highly recommend them
Great crew!
Susan S.
I had some issues with my programmer and the landscape lights not coming on at the right time. Patrick at Carolina Outdoor came out and reprogrammed the unit and checked all my lights to let me know which were out. Later that day the lights came on during the day and I called them back at 6pm and Patrick returned my call. Long story short the unit is not functioning properly any longer (and it was programmed correctly) and a new programmer unit is needed. Through talking to me Patrick suggested something even simpler.. a photocell unit that simply senses night/day. I really appreciate a business who listens to you and provides solutions that meet my needs. And to call me back after hours was really impressive and much appreciated bc of course I’m thinking dang you were just here! Anyway, my experience with Carolina outdoor was all excellent … all the staff I interacted with were super courteous, knowledgeable, came on time and a fair price. Def will use them for all future needs.
pete V.
Great company with the best team around. They are always so responsive and friendly.
Leslie L.
We had a great experience with Carolina Outdoor Lighting. There were several issues with our current lighting system, due to construction projects we had done, and Carolina Outdoor Lighting came out and fixed the problems in a short period of time. Very responsive and professional.
Heather L.
We had a wonderful experience with Carolina Outdoor Lighting installing accent lighting on our arborvitaes and various other trees. From start to finish they were consistently prompt and helpful. We appreciate that Greg went above and beyond to troubleshoot issues we were having with our existing bistro lighting from another company on the day of install. We will definitely be contacting them for any future lighting needs!
Update: 5/21/26
We decided to have some upgrades done to the mediocre existing lighting that was done by another company at the front of our house. Carolina Outdoor Lighting was a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond to ensure the changes we made were perfect. We were able to reduce costs significantly by upgrading the lamps in our existing fixtures instead of buying brand new fixtures. It is clear that they care about their customers and doing quality work. They are very honest and upfront about offering ways clients can work within their budget while still achieving a great end result. Shout out to Austin for doing an excellent job!
Regan E.
Austin walked me through how to troubleshoot and reset my system over the phone. Great customer service!
Kevin R.
The whole team at Carolina Outdoor has been amazing to work with including Matt for the nighttime demo and Parker for the install. Their level of customer service has been exceptional. The lighting looks fantastic and I wish I'd contacted them sooner! Highly recommend this company!
Whit B.
Smooth process from first visit to final installation. The installers were great. Took care during the process and everything works as expected. We really like the way the front of our house is lit up. We highly recommend Carolina Outdoor Lighting.
Martyn C.
Carolina Outdoor Lighting delivered an incredible service. They were very flexible and accommodated our changing schedule. Their sales team were knowledgeable and advised/recommended on products to really enhance the curb appeal or our home. On the day of installation the service team arrived on time and were professionals and true experts in their trade. We could not have asked for more!
J.D. G.
Carolina Outdoor Lighting has installed tremendous up-lighting for me on two different properties. They are highly professional and the quality of the work creates a dramatic impact on your home. I highly recommend their services.
