Once the sun sets, your yard, driveway, and front walk either feel welcoming or disappear into the dark. Thoughtful outdoor lighting makes your property safer to navigate, tougher for intruders to approach unseen, and a lot more fun to enjoy on summer evenings. Whether your property sits in Georgetown, IN, Charlestown, Henryville, Jeffersonville, or Scottsburg, Norton Electric LLC can handle your outdoor and landscape lighting installation.
Since opening in 2021, Norton Electric LLC has served Southern Indiana from its Georgetown headquarters as a locally owned electrical company, under the leadership of Indiana Master Electrician Sean Norton. Our work in Outdoor & Landscape Lighting Installation includes low-voltage landscape lighting, path and step lights, uplighting for trees and architecture, security floodlights, and storefront lighting for commercial properties. We design and install weather-rated LED systems for residential and commercial clients in Floyd, Clark, Scott, and Harrison counties.
Stumbling up unlit porch steps, squinting to find the keyhole, or watching a row of cheap solar stakes fade out by 9 p.m. gets old quickly. Businesses face a similar challenge when a dim storefront or walkway makes customers hesitate. Many property owners try plug-in kits or extension cords as a quick fix, but those setups rarely hold up through an Indiana winter.
Outdoor lighting lives a tough life, with rain, snow, humidity, and freeze-thaw cycles working on every fixture and connection. Indoor-rated or bargain fixtures corrode, low-voltage systems wired in a long daisy chain suffer from voltage drop that leaves the last few lights dim, and undersized transformers struggle to keep up. Line-voltage floodlights add a safety concern, since exposed splices, missing GFCI protection, or cable buried too shallow can create shock hazards.
Our process begins with a lighting plan that highlights the features you love, lights the paths you walk, and covers the dark spots where security matters most. For landscape lighting, we install a properly sized low-voltage transformer on a GFCI-protected outdoor receptacle with a weatherproof in-use cover, then use hub-style wiring to deliver even voltage to every fixture. For floodlights and security lights, we run rated cable or conduit at code-required depth, and we finish with photocells or timers so your lights turn on at dusk without you lifting a finger.
By nightfall, your home or business glows with warm, inviting light that guides guests safely and keeps prowlers guessing. You'll spend more evenings on the patio and fewer worrying about who's lurking near the garage.
Professional outdoor lighting adds beauty, safety, and value to any property.
Path and step lights reveal uneven pavers, curbs, and stairs before anyone trips over them. Guests, delivery drivers, and family members all make it to the door safely.
Motion-activated floodlights and well-placed fixtures remove the shadows intruders rely on. Many homeowners pair them with cameras for even better coverage.
Uplighting on trees, stonework, and architectural details shows off your property long after dark. For businesses, an inviting storefront draws attention from passing traffic.
Modern 12-volt landscape systems pose minimal shock risk and pair perfectly with energy-sipping LED fixtures. You'll enjoy hours of light each night for very little power.
Wet-location fixtures made from brass, copper, or powder-coated aluminum stand up to Southern Indiana storms and winters. Sealed connections keep moisture out, so your system keeps shining year after year.
Outdoor lighting looks its best alongside great lighting inside, and these related services tie everything together.
Inside the house, our Recessed Lighting Installation service brings clean, even light to kitchens, living rooms, and basements with slim, flush-mount fixtures.

Outdoor projects combine design and electrical work, and our team brings both to your yard or storefront.
We know what Indiana's humidity, ice, and frost heave can do to an outdoor system. That's why we plan every connection, fixture, and cable run around those conditions.
Our work ranges from cozy backyard patios to commercial walkways and building facades. Whatever the property, we create lighting that makes a great first impression.
As a small, local business, we have the flexibility to offer perks that larger outfits often skip. Ask about our military and senior discounts, along with financing on bigger outdoor projects.
Plenty of landscapers can stake lights in the ground, but outdoor receptacles, transformers, and line-voltage fixtures call for a licensed electrician. Sean Norton's Master Electrician credential means your system meets code and stays safe.
Our 1-year craftsmanship warranty covers the work we perform, and we're always happy to come back to adjust fixtures or expand your system. Many customers add more lights once they see the first results.
Low-voltage fixtures themselves are fairly DIY-friendly, but the outdoor receptacle, transformer connection, and any 120-volt lighting should involve a licensed electrician. That work requires GFCI protection, weatherproof covers, and proper burial depths, and it may need a permit depending on your local building department.
Well-placed lighting removes the shadows around doors, garages, and windows where someone could approach unnoticed. Motion-activated floodlights add an element of surprise, while dusk-to-dawn fixtures keep key areas lit all night. Pairing lights with security cameras also gives you clearer footage after dark.
Low-voltage landscape cable typically sits about six inches below the surface, deep enough to stay safe from mowers and aerators. Line-voltage cable and conduit go deeper, with depths set by the National Electrical Code based on the wiring method and circuit protection. Your electrician will choose the right method for your yard.
Solar lights work for small accents, but short winter days and cloudy Indiana skies often leave them dim or dark by mid-evening. A hardwired low-voltage system delivers consistent brightness all year, no matter the weather.
Photocells turn lights on at dusk and off at dawn automatically, which helps since sunset in Indiana shifts by several hours between summer and winter. Timers let you shut lights off at a set hour to save energy. Many systems combine both for the best of each.
