How we approach landscape lighting in Georgetown
Georgetown has more architectural range than almost any city we serve. In Old Town, blocks of restored Victorian and Craftsman homes surround the Williamson County Courthouse and Southwestern University, with deep porches, gingerbread trim and century-old pecans and live oaks. West of I-35 along Williams Drive and toward Lake Georgetown, Sun City Texas, Berry Creek and Cimarron Hills sit on limestone ridges shaded by live oaks and cedar. East of the interstate, Teravista, Georgetown Village and the newer sections off SH 130 are flatter Blackland Prairie with younger trees. Austin Landscape Lighting designs for each of these settings differently, because landscape lighting Georgetown TX homeowners are proud of has to fit the house and the ground it sits on.
On a historic Old Town home we favor restraint: soft washes on the porch columns, a gentle glow on the trim, and moonlighting down through the pecans so the lawn and walk are lit from above. In Sun City and Berry Creek, the oaks and the stone take center stage and the goal is depth across the whole lot. In Wolf Ranch and the newer neighborhoods, we start with the facade and plan for the trees to catch up.
Georgetown's most requested services
Three services account for most of our Georgetown projects.
- Garden and tree lighting, especially for the mature live oaks that make Sun City, Berry Creek, Cimarron Hills, Escalera Ranch and Old Town so attractive.
- Architectural uplighting for Hill Country stone elevations west of I-35 and the brick and stone homes in Wolf Ranch and Teravista.
- Path and walkway lighting, which is a priority for many Sun City residents who want safe, well-lit walks and patios without glare.
We also complete a large number of LED upgrade and retrofit jobs in Georgetown. Many homes in Sun City and Berry Creek were built with halogen systems in the late 1990s and 2000s, and converting them to LED cuts energy use by around 80 percent while dramatically improving the quality of light. Homes along Lake Georgetown and the San Gabriel River frequently add deck and patio lighting to enjoy the views after dark.
Local considerations in Georgetown
Sun City Texas has clear architectural guidelines and a community that values quiet, low-glare nights. Our fixtures are low-profile brass and copper with warm 2700K LEDs, which fit those guidelines well, and we can provide a plan for any required review. West-side lots near Lake Georgetown, Berry Creek and Cimarron Hills have shallow soil over limestone and regular deer traffic, so we scout trenching routes during the consultation and use heavy fixtures that stand up to hooves.
In Old Town, we take care to mount tree fixtures with adjustable straps rather than screws, and we avoid pruning cuts on live oaks during the spring oak wilt season. Historic homes often have original stone or brick walks and foundations, and we route wire to avoid disturbing them. East of I-35, Blackland clay moves with the seasons, so we leave slack in runs and set stakes deep. Across the city, Georgetown's growth means many homeowners are lighting new construction with small trees, and we plan junction points so tree lights can be added later without redesigning the system.

Landscape lighting in Georgetown: FAQ
Do you work in Sun City Texas, and do you follow its community guidelines?
Yes. Sun City is one of our most active Georgetown neighborhoods. Our brass and copper fixtures are low-profile, our LEDs are warm white, and all light is shielded and aimed at the house, trees and walks rather than the street or neighboring homes. We can provide a fixture plan if the community requires a review, and we are experienced with LED retrofits of the older halogen systems many Sun City homes still have.
Can you light a historic Old Town Georgetown home without harming it?
Yes. On Victorian and Craftsman homes near the Square we use soft, low-wattage washes on porch columns and trim, mount tree fixtures with adjustable straps rather than screws, and route wire around original stone walks and foundations. Nothing is permanently attached to historic masonry or woodwork, and the effect is a gentle glow that suits the architecture rather than a bright modern look.
How does the drive from Austin affect scheduling and service in Georgetown?
Georgetown is about 35 to 40 minutes from our shop on I-35, and we schedule consultations and installs there regularly. The free on-site design consultation, written estimate, one-day installation and two-year workmanship warranty are identical to our Austin projects. Follow-up aiming visits and warranty service are included and scheduled with other Williamson County stops.
What is a realistic budget for landscape lighting on a Georgetown home?
Every property is different, so we give exact pricing only after the free consultation. As a planning range, a front-yard system with 8 to 12 brass fixtures, a transformer and a timer typically falls in the low-to-mid four figures, and full-property systems in Berry Creek or Cimarron Hills with tree, patio and path lighting run higher. Our online cost estimator provides planning ranges by lot size and fixture count.
