Question 1

Can you integrate color-changing lights so we can keep classic white most of the year, but switch to team colors or holiday colors when we want?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Lights Over Atlanta can install discreet, low-voltage LED fixtures that default to elegant warm-white, then let you switch instantly to any team or holiday palette with a handheld remote. You’ll enjoy year-round curb appeal plus hassle-free color celebrations at the tap of a button.

Yes! As an Atlanta outdoor lighting company specializing in permanent LED systems, Lights Over Atlanta designs fixtures that shine classic warm-white every night yet hold built-in RGB diodes for instant color. During installation we tuck low-voltage wiring and fixtures discreetly into your architecture or landscape, then pair them with a timer and remote control.

From the supplied handheld remote you can do the following:

toggle between pure white and countless custom colors,
group fixtures into zones (front façade, pool, trees) to splash separate team colors,
dim or brighten each scene for perfect ambiance.

Because the same high-efficiency LEDs create both white and color, there’s no second set of bulbs to maintain. Our lifetime-warranted fixtures draw pennies of power, and our white-glove maintenance program keeps every light calibrated season after season.

Explore our permanent outdoor lighting and color-changing lighting to see how effortlessly you can celebrate in color while enjoying sophisticated white light the rest of the year.

Question 2

Can you install outdoor wall lights that are battery operated with a remote control, or do you only work with hardwired fixtures?

Accepted Answer

Lights Over Atlanta specializes in professionally hard-wired, low-voltage LED systems—not standalone battery sconces. Our fixtures tie into a weather-proof transformer so they shine every night and can be controlled by remote or timer.

At Lights Over Atlanta, every project is built around a permanent, low-voltage LED infrastructure. Because battery-operated wall lights simply can’t deliver that level of brightness, reliability, or integration, we do not install them. Instead, we give you the easy control you’re looking for in smarter ways:

Hand-held RF remotes let you dim, change colors, or switch zones on demand.
Timers can turn your landscape lighting on and off automatically.

This approach keeps wiring invisible while giving you fingertip control—no climbing ladders to replace dead batteries and no dark corners when the power fades.

If you already have aging fixtures, our LED outdoor lighting conversion team can upgrade them to the same hard-wired, remote-ready standard. The result is a worry-free system backed with our outdoor lighting maintenance plans. Partner with the top outdoor lighting company in Atlanta and enjoy remote convenience without sacrificing performance or curb-appeal brilliance.

Question 3

I paid my 50% deposit. When can I expect my install?

Accepted Answer

After your 50% deposit is received, most residential lighting installations are scheduled within two weeks. Commercial projects may follow a slightly different timeline depending on scope and materials. During peak seasons, especially late fall when Christmas lighting demand is highest, scheduling may take a bit longer. Our team will confirm your installation date as soon as your project enters the queue.

Once your deposit is processed, our warehouse and production team begins preparing materials and coordinating your installation schedule.

For most residential accent and landscape lighting projects, installation is typically scheduled within two weeks of the signed contract and deposit.

Commercial projects, including work like parking lot lighting, garage retrofits, or multi-building properties, may require additional lead time for sourcing fixtures or coordinating access with property managers and tenants. Our team will communicate a clear timeline based on the specifics of your project.

Seasonal demand also plays a role. Christmas lighting season runs roughly from late September through early December, and install schedules fill quickly during that window. If holiday lighting is part of your plan, earlier booking helps secure your preferred dates.

If you have already submitted your deposit and want to check on scheduling, give us a call at (470) 870-0606. We are happy to provide an update on where your project stands.

Question 4

How often should we schedule outdoor lighting maintenance like fixture cleaning, angle adjustments, and lens cleaning to keep everything looking its best?

Accepted Answer

Plan to service your outdoor lighting once a year. Those visits include fixture, lens, and bulb cleaning, angle adjustments, and quick wire checks. Call us between visits if you notice a dim bulb or storm damage so issues never linger.

Most Atlanta outdoor lighting experts, including Lights Over Atlanta, recommend a annual maintenance routine to keep every fixture performing like new.

During these visits our certified technicians:

Gently remove pollen, dust, and hard-water spots from fixtures and lenses.
Re-aim uplights, path lights, and permanent string lights so trees, facades, and walkways stay evenly lit.
Check seals, gaskets, and wire connections, replacing any worn parts under your fixture warranty.
Swap burnt bulbs and test voltage to confirm your LED system runs at peak efficiency.

This quick tune-up prevents hotspots, saves energy, and protects curb appeal—key concerns for busy homeowners seeking premium landscape lighting properties around Atlanta, GA deserve.

Our flexible annual maintenance program lets you enjoy your lights while we handle the details. We even offer on-call visits between scheduled services if a storm knocks a fixture out of place. Partner with the team that designed your system, and your outdoor lighting installation will look event-ready every night.

Question 5

How long does a typical commercial LED conversion project take?

Accepted Answer

Every commercial LED conversion is different. Timelines depend on both the scale (how large the property is) and the scope (how much work is included—simple fixture swaps vs. broader upgrades, controls, and permitting). Some projects can be completed in as little as a couple of weeks, while others take longer due to the size of the site, the complexity of the work, and scheduling or material availability.

There isn’t a single “standard” timeline for a commercial LED conversion, because no two properties are exactly alike. The total schedule depends on:

Scale: A single storefront, small lot, or one-building property typically moves faster than a multi-building campus or large parking area.
Scope: A straightforward low-voltage LED retrofit can be quicker than a project that includes a mixture of high and low-voltage fixture upgrades, lighting controls, or broader coverage improvements.

Most projects follow the same general stages:

Planning and coordination
After you approve the quote, we coordinate scheduling, confirm fixture selections, and handle any required permitting (if applicable). If specialty fixtures or controls are needed, lead times can also affect the schedule.
On-site installation
The on-site portion varies widely. Some sites can be upgraded with minimal disruption in a short window, while larger properties or more involved scopes may require additional time or a phased approach to keep key areas safely lit and accessible.
Final verification
Once installation is complete, we confirm the lighting is performing as intended—focused on consistent coverage, appropriate brightness, and a clean finished look.

If you want the most accurate estimate, the best next step is to contact our team. That allows us to size the project correctly, identify any constraints, and give you a timeline that fits your specific property and goals.
