Saint Louis · Since 2018
Bring your Fenton home to life after dark.
Fenton has some of the deepest roots in our service area. The city was founded in 1818 by William Lindsey Long, who named it after his Welsh grandmother, Elizabeth Fenton Bennett. Olde Towne Fenton — the historic core of the city — still consists of just eight square blocks, which means a walking tour of Fenton’s earliest history is genuinely doable. The city straddles the Meramec River, with portions in both St. Louis County and Jefferson County.
Bridges are a big part of Fenton’s history. The first bridge across the Meramec was built in 1854; the current iteration is the fourth bridge to span the river at Fenton. Gravois Road was originally Fenton’s main street, but with the construction of the 1925 bridge, the road was re-routed around Olde Towne — gradually allowing the city to expand beyond its original eight-block area. Today’s Fenton is a mix of that preserved historic core, established postwar neighborhoods, and newer commercial development along Gravois Bluffs.
What makes Fenton a great landscape-lighting market is the architectural diversity. Within the city you’ll find 19th-century historic homes near the original townsite, established 1950s-70s suburban homes, and newer construction in areas like Gravois Bluffs. The Swantner House (built around 1906) anchors the Fenton Historical Society. The oldest house in the original eight blocks of Old Fenton sits at the corner of Main and Ferry. An even older log cabin (owned by the Chott family) is within current city limits.
Whether you’re in Olde Towne Fenton, near the Gravois Bluffs commercial corridor, in an established postwar neighborhood, or anywhere along the Meramec River corridor, we’d love to walk your property and design something custom.
Here’s what we design and install across the area:
The Gravois Bluffs commercial corridor and surrounding business parks drive consistent commercial demand alongside residential work.
Fenton's residential neighborhoods feature a mix of home styles, with facade accent work as the most universally applicable service.
newer two-story builds in Fenton's residential subdivisions support permanent roofline systems particularly well.
Fenton’s mixed-use character means lighting projects often span both residential and commercial categories — a single client may own a home and a business in the same city. Residential subdivisions are largely newer builds with consistent architectural character; commercial work runs from small storefronts to corporate parks. Project cycles tend to be more even year-round than purely residential markets.
Olde Towne Fenton has homes dating back to the city's 1818 founding. These historic properties deserve lighting that respects their character — warm color temperatures, low-profile fixtures, and placement strategies that complement period architecture rather than fight it.
Outside Olde Towne, most Fenton homes are from the postwar suburban boom. Ranches, split-levels, and traditional 2-stories on established lots. We design with the era in mind — horizontal accent lighting for ranches, warm-tone façade lighting for brick traditionals, and mature-tree work that uses the established landscaping.
Many Fenton homes sit near or above the Meramec River corridor. We design with the river-adjacent character in mind — fixtures rated for higher humidity, placements that respect natural views, and lighting effects that complement the natural surroundings.
Fenton straddles two counties. We serve the entire city — St. Louis County portions north of the river and Jefferson County portions to the south — with the same quality standards and the same warranty coverage.

I used the Landscape Lighting Guys for my home years ago. They recently came by to replace a few fixtures and bulbs. They are very professional and have done landscape lighting and Christmas lights for a number of family members. Top notch company.Posted on Google![]()

I was skeptical when I discovered my lighting company had closed and I was going to have to find a new landscape lighting company. However, I am so happy with Landscape Lighting Guys - they were very reasonable, repaired all my lights in a very timely manner and responded quickly when I had questions. I will continue to use them and highly recommend them to any one looking for landscape lighting.Posted on Google![]()

Updated October 2026 We have used Landscape Lighting Guys and Santa’s Elves for multiple seasons/projects in the last 9 years. This year we added permanent lights and couldn’t be happier. From the initial meeting with multiple ideas of how to illuminate our home to the completion of installation, the process was easy and they communicated every step of the way. George, Tyler, and Eric did a great job with the install and George answered all of my questions regarding the permanent lighting app. If you want your home to stand out with lighting, contact Landscape Lighting Guys/Santa’s Elves. Landscape Lighting Guys were great to work with! They came up with a great design to brighten up our landscaping and the front of our house. The products they use are made to last and we will use them for all of our outdoor lighting needs in the future.Posted on Google![]()
