Citiscapes, LLC
Outdoor lighting extends how long you use a space and changes how the whole yard feels after dark. Done right, it's subtle — you see the yard, not the fixtures. Citiscapes designs and installs lighting systems planned to work as part of the landscape, not bolted on as an afterthought.
How outdoor lighting installation works: Lighting starts with a layout plan identifying fixture types and placement for path, accent, area, and structure lighting. Low-voltage wire is trenched and run to each fixture from a transformer sized for the total load. Fixtures are staked or mounted, aimed, and tested for the correct throw and brightness. Timers or smart controllers are programmed so the system runs on schedule without manual operation. Line-voltage installations require licensed electrical work and conduit burial per code.
Citiscapes designs and installs outdoor lighting systems for residential properties throughout Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Paradise Valley. We work with homeowners to create lighting plans that highlight the right features — trees, water features, architectural details, pathways, and outdoor living areas — without over-lighting a space and losing the atmosphere that good landscape lighting creates.
Most of our residential installs are low-voltage LED systems. They use a fraction of the energy of traditional landscape lighting, last significantly longer, and give us flexibility in fixture placement and intensity. Smart controllers allow scheduling, dimming, and zone control from a phone — a feature our clients end up using more than they expected.
Pathway lighting, uplighting for trees and palms, step lighting for grade changes, and wash lighting for walls and fences are all part of the toolkit. We also light outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, pergolas, and water features so those areas are functional and attractive after dark.
Lighting is often the last thing on a project list and one of the most impactful. We plan it into the original design so wiring is coordinated with hardscape — not dug up after the patio is already poured.

I called Citiscapes to do a relatively small job to re-install some patio pavers I had to remove for ditching and to install a relatively small amount of 1/2" brown gravel. Joey came out promptly to discuss my project. He was polite, patient, listened to what I had to say and provided some input to enhance the look of the installation. As his team had finished another job a day early, Citiscapes was able to do my project the day after I signed the agreement! The work was done professionally and the results look great!
Kendall is professional, communicative, thorough, great at explaining, he has a real vision. We couldn’t be more happy. EDIT: Just wanted to mention Victor and his team as well. They did a terrific job!
I had a brick planter built and I had 9tons of landscape rock delivered. All went great.
