Outdoor Lighting Services in Knightdale

Our landscape lighting systems are customized to your property and your budget. To allow you to see how an exterior lighting system would transform your property, we offer a free evening demonstration. We also design and test our systems at night so that you and our designers are able to see how the system looks before the work is complete.

Lighting Products

Quality is extremely important to us because we want to you be able to enjoy your new outdoor lighting system for years to come. That’s why we only use the highest-quality LED bulbs on the market and all of our fixtures are American made. We know the most expensive lighting system is one that needs constant maintenance, which is why we only use top-of-the-line materials.

Exterior Lighting Installation

Our installation process is unique because we do all of our designing and installing at night. When lighting systems are installed during the day, we have to wait until the sun goes down to see the finished product and know if any adjustments need to be made. By designing and installing at night, we skip the waiting and are able to see and adjust everything as it’s being installed. It’s unconventional, but we think it’s the best way to install an outdoor lighting system.

Our residential landscape lighting systems do more than increase your curb appeal, they provide an extra layer of security to your property and allow you to enjoy your outdoor spaces well into the night. You won’t believe what outdoor lighting will do for your pool area, patio, or dock.

Austin was so awesome to work with! He helped think of designs for my bistro lighting and my up-lighting and it all looked amazing! There were a few tweaks needed after install and Austin came that day to fix them. Also, they had my install on the calendar about a month out and a day opened up earlier and they got me on the schedule. Amazing company! Thanks!
Christopher S.
Carolina Outdoor Lighting did a great job for us. They were clear about what work needed to be done to update our outdoor lighting, installed new lighting where necessary and worked to repair the existing system. They were fast, friendly and and reliable. Austin and his crew were great to work with and the lights make the house look great.

Carolina Outdoor Lighting was a pleasure to work with. They were responsive, thoughtful in their approach, and committed to doing the work properly.

They handled a few unexpected complexities with professionalism and flexibility, coordinating with trusted partners to ensure everything was completed the right way. Their attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident throughout the process.

It’s clear they take pride in their work and value long-term relationships with their clients. I would gladly work with them again and highly recommend them.

Great company. Super responsive and very invested in how our project turned out. They installed both our outdoor lighting as well as that of our neighbors and it really made a huge difference.

I am beyond thrilled with the work done by the Carolina Outdoor Lighting team! They did a beautiful job transforming my home, and the results speak for themselves—the house looks stunning once the sun goes down.
From start to finish, the experience was top-notch. Eric and Doug were extremely professional during the "free evening demo' and during initial installation, ensuring everything was placed perfectly. Later, when I needed some light bulb refocusing to fine-tune the look, Austin came out and made it even better.
It is rare to find a team this dedicated to the details. If you are looking for a professional, reliable and talented crew to elevate your home’s curb appeal, I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you to the whole team for a wonderful experience!
Lauren R.
Excellent experience with this company. Gave us a night time demo to ensure we were happy with recommendations and lighting plan. Installation was seamless and we are beyond happy with the result. HIGHLY recommend!
Alex T.
Mike, Pat, and the Carolina Outdoor Lighting team did a great job. They were professional, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the process. The lighting turned out great and really enhanced the look of our home at night. Everything was handled smoothly, and we appreciated their attention to detail and service. Highly recommend Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals.
James G.
I got these guys to install lights on my flag and they did an outstanding job. I then had them come out and do the free mock up on my house and it was exactly what I wanted and we scheduled to get the house done. They ended up moving my date ahead as they got caught up with other jobs. Great company! Highly recommend. The Greg guy is a little crazy but there is one on every team. lol JK Greg is the one I delt with the whole time. He even came out after hours and made an adjustment on my flag lights without me asking. These guys go above and beyond!
Becky T.
We would highly recommend Carolina Outdoor Lighting. They were professional, timely, and easy to work with.
Nima N.
I cannot say enough great things about this company!!! Everyone I have met is super knowledgeable, kind, and great at their jobs. Greg put in new lighting at one of our houses in North Hills and it looks amazing!!. I work with Kevin at our other house near Jaycee Park and everyone has consistently been excellent. They are quick to respond, great communicators, and true professionals. Carolina Outdoor Lighting is who you need for your outdoor space!!
Petra O.

Great experience. First, we had an evening set up to get a visual about how the light would look and then the installation was awesome. Coming home to an illuminated home was awesome and now more neighbors are inquiring! Highly recommend!

We could not be happier with Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals!! They installed landscape lighting in our front and back yards and from start to finish the experiences have been exceptional. Their landscape lighting design has completely transformed our property. The crew members were courteous, respectful and the installation was done efficiently and with attention to detail. We enjoy our patio even more now when relaxing in the evening with the lights highlighting the landscape. Our entire home looks stunning at night due to the lighting for which we have received so many compliments. We highly recommend Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals, they do amazing work!!. You will not be disappointed!.

Excellent and professional service. Good communication and follow up. Could have been more pleased.
Jennifer D.
I had such a great experience with Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals. From the very first conversation, they were warm, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. I loved that they did a nighttime demo so I could actually see the design before committing because it made the whole process feel thoughtful and stress free. Their team showed up when they said they would, kept me in the loop, and treated my home with so much care. The finished lighting completely transformed the space. It feels welcoming, polished, and honestly just beautiful. I have noticed they have many repeat customers and now I see why. They stand behind their work, respond quickly if you need anything, and truly go above and beyond. I am so happy with the whole experience and would gladly recommend them to anyone looking to elevate their outdoor space.
David C.
Patrick was great to work with. He has constantly taken care of my customers for me. Amazing customer service. Highly recommend
Laurie R.
We have used Carolina outdoor lighting for years, at home and our lake house. When we moved this summer, we were thrilled to see that they had installed lighting at our new home as well! Recently we had them come out to expand on the lighting footprint and they are always so responsive, and do such great work. We have always left the design in their capable hands and they never let us down. Thanks again for another awesome job! Can’t recommend these folks enough.
Chris T.
We had a terrific experience with Carolina Outdoor Lighting. I learned of them from signs in a nearby neighborhood and some internet research. What caught my eye was their 5 Star Google Rating - and our experience was indeed 5 Star.

The owner Eric came out to our house to walk our property and make suggestions. He responded with a same-day estimate.

From there, Kevin was in contact with us for an install date. The team actually got us an earlier date than originally thought.

Finally, Austin and crew showed up and did an incredibly professional job. The lights are wonderful and really make our house and trees stand out. And the team left the grounds and beds in better condition than when they arrived.

The lights were a Christmas present for my wife - and she loves them. She even said it’s the best Christmas present she’s ever gotten.

Thanks to the whole team!
Jenny L S.
Praising Carolina Outdoor Lighting for their initial install of my beautiful home lighting but also for addressing my need in replacing/resetting my system battery and adding additional lighting. You acted fast in meeting my requests, doing so professionally, affordably and beautifully. There’s nothing better than feeling supported by a company who got your business years ago, but is available at a moments notice when an issue arises. Thank you for going above and beyond!
Barbara
Carolina Lighting did a job for me 3 years ago. It was primarily a highlighting of landscaping I was so happy with the results I asked them to come back for another project. I can't say enough good things about this company. They are professional, polite and thorough. If you are not sure what you what or how to achieve the end goal they offer great suggestions. They then follow up to make sure all is well. I would say they are one of Raleigh's best.
Daniel K.
Exceptional experience from start to finish. Communication was clear, timely, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. It’s clear they value long-term relationships over quick wins. Highly recommend working with them. Thanks Mike and Kevin!
Guilherme A.
We highly recommend them!
They did a great job around our home!
MARIE C.
Carolina Outdoor Lighting has been very helpful in assisting us to update our 20 year old landscape lighting in the front and back yard. I feel they incorporated improvement with using whatever was still viable in the old system. Their work was proficient, neat and timely, I would highly recommend them.
Wil R.
What a huge difference it made when we had our lights installed by Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals! Our house was dark since there are no street lights close by. When they setup the demo to show us, we were sold. Not only does it look amazing, it provides functional lighting to our front lawn with the light bounce back from house. We’re glad we went with Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals, we are very happy with the results. Thank you guys!
Karina O.
We had an excellent experience with Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals from start to finish. Their team was extremely professional, punctual, and communicative throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation, they took the time to understand what we were looking for, offered thoughtful recommendations, and stayed within our desired budget.

On the day of installation, the team arrived on time and worked efficiently, providing continuous updates as the project progressed. In just 3-4 hours, they completely transformed our backyard, and the final result exceeded anything we could have imagined!

Even though our project was relatively small in scale, they treated it with the same level of care, attention, and professionalism as a much larger job. The customer service was outstanding, and the quality of the work truly shows.

A special shoutout to Kevin, Greg, and Eric, who were fantastic throughout the entire project, especially when it came to recommendations, communication, and overall execution. We could not be happier and would highly recommend Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals to anyone considering investing in backyard or patio lighting.
Andy K.
We have had a great experience with these guys. We moved into a house with an existing lighting system that no longer worked. They designed a new plan that incorporated as much of the old system as possible. The result was a much improved design at a more affordable price. After we had some additional landscaping done, they came back and quickly implemented a new design to perfectly match the landscaping. These guys are professional and great to work with. Highly recommended.
Lisa P.
We have been using Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals for years now...and Mike is the best, making our yard look beautiful! Both my husband and I enjoy gardening and being outside...and wanted to enhance the beauty of our yard with warm illumination. Over the years, as we have continued evolving our yard to fit where we are in our lives, Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals continue to meet our needs, advising further enhancements to our original lighting.

They are creative, honest, professional experts who never fail to make us happy. We would not trust anyone else with our lighting needs!
Taylor C.
We had a great experience with Carolina Outdoor Lighting. We had some bistro lights added to our deck and some decorative and functional lights added to the stairs on the deck and down the driveway. They were very communicative throughout the process and when there was a weird issue with the bistro lights post-install (super rare) they didn't stop until it was perfect.
Dimitry S.
Carolina Outdoor Lighting was awesome to work with! They gave great advice on what would look best and helped with the perfect placement of the lights. They stayed within my budget but still made my house look amazing. The whole process was easy, and the results are even better than I expected. Highly recommend!
Yisenia R.
I absolutely love my new bistro lights! Carolina Outdoor Lighting did an outstanding and very professional job. The team arrived on time, worked efficiently, and the final result transformed my space. I couldn’t be happier — highly recommend this company!
Michael C.
We recently hired Carolina Outdoor Lighting to install lighting around our home. They are truly professional and experts at what they do. The complimentary demo worked great to help us decide what we wanted. Their installation team did an outstanding job. Highly recommend them!
Brice E.
These guys are the best... period. I've used them now 3x in 10 years and trust their quality work and advice. You certainly feel safer driving up to a well lit house and the aesthetics are great too. Any problems and they are there within a short time to service and repair or upgrade. My best advice is go with the full compliment of lights the 1st time and enjoy.
JT's C.
From the first phone call to the instillation and adjustments, Carolina Outdoor Lighting has been excellent to work with. They came and did an evening demonstration at my request prior to our decision. Our home looks amazing at night, so warm and inviting. They are very professional and accomodating. I couldn't recommend them more. Use them - you won't be disappointed!
Roger W.
Carolina Outdoor Lighting has completed two installations for us, and both experiences have been excellent. Their team provided a thoughtful design that truly enhances our landscaping, and the installation was handled with professionalism and attention to detail.

What sets them apart is their outstanding after‑sale service. As our yard has evolved with new plantings and changes, they have been responsive and efficient in handling cut wires, relocations, and adjustments. The same level of care and expertise we saw during the initial installation carries through to their ongoing support.

Carolina Outdoor Lighting combines creative design, quality workmanship, and reliable follow‑up service. We are very pleased with their work and highly recommend them to anyone looking to elevate their outdoor spaces.
John D.
These guys did a great job lighting my house. They were very responsive and easy to work with throughout the process and did everything they said they would do. The nighttime demo was helpful in selecting the right setup. Austin and his crew were very professional (and careful) with the installation. They also followed up to make sure I was satisfied and made a few adjustments to dial things in. I highly recommend Carolina Outdoor Lighting.
Kim K.
We are so happy we had Carolina Outdoor Lighting Professionals install our lights! Our house went from dark and unseen at night to beautiful and elegant. We have trees in front of our house which offer awesome privacy when out on our front porch, but the trees also made our house very dark at night. Now we can see our house and are welcomed by the gorgeous glow when we arrive home at night. Neighbors and friends are already saying how beautiful our house is with the lights. The crew at Carolina Outdoor Lighting was wonderful to work with from beginning to end! Very professional and kind. Kevin explained everything at the first conversation. It was a pleasure to meet Doug during the free demo session, which was key for us to see how many lights we wanted on our front trees. Austin contacted us before coming out for the install to explain timing and expectations. The install day went seamlessly and we are so happy with the outcome! All wiring is hidden and our yard was left in excellent condition - they cleaned up the small amount of branches that needed to be trimmed for lights to be installed next to the house. We had a light installed on the side of our front steps for a corner column and it’s amazing how you cannot see any wiring at all! Truly impressed by the installation crew! We highly recommend this company if you are looking for professional lighting for your home!
Susan R.
Carolina Outdoor Lighting was highly professional, expert, and courteous. So nice to deal with people who really know what they're doing!
Scott H.
M8ie and Matt never fail to impress
Jason P.
I can't say enough good things about these guys. So for the last I would say 5-7 years we have been doing the solar powered low voltage lights to light up our sidewalk and one other area. We were ALWAYS frustrated that the lights would usually not last the night, after about 6-8 months one of them would invariably stop working, I even tried the wired low voltage lighting from Home Depot/Lowes. They would break even faster than the solar ones.

So we finally decided to have it professionally done. After reading all the reviews online and seeing that Carolina Outdoor had an A+ rating it was an easy call.

Matt came out the next day and went through everything that would probably work the best. Then the service manager came out about 2 days later and did the evening demo, once we fiddled with is every so slightly we were sold.

The only thing that was a touch of a pain point was they there about a month out on installs. Kevin was great keeping us informed of when the install would happen, and they pulled it in about week.

We could NOT be happier with the results, the house looks fantastic now. Before it we were a dark place you could not see from the street, now it looks really nice.

Would DEFINITELY recommend to anyone.
Athena W.
5 Stars all the way. Could not be happier.
Kevin H.
Carolina Outdoor Lighting put in my system 5 years ago. I had a couple of bulbs that recently started to fade and I called them for warranty service. They came out same week, replaced those bulbs and checked everything else. The system looks brand new again. This is what great customer service looks like. Highly recommend!!
