Landscape Lighting in Richmond Heights, Missouri

Bring your Richmond Heights home to life after dark.

Why we love serving Richmond Heights

Richmond Heights sits in one of the most central locations in St. Louis County — bordered by Clayton, Brentwood, Maplewood, and Forest Park. That central position gives it an unusual character among St. Louis suburbs: it’s genuinely walkable, with a mix of older homes, established neighborhoods, and proximity to the cultural amenities of Forest Park and the bustling Galleria shopping district. It’s also one of the most varied residential markets in the region, with home styles ranging from charming 1920s bungalows to renovated traditional brick homes to newer infills.

What we love about lighting Richmond Heights is exactly that variety. A single block can include a 1920s bungalow, a 1940s Cape Cod, a 1960s ranch, and a recent renovation that has updated everything but the architectural footprint. Lighting each home well means tailoring the approach — warmer tones and subtle placements for older homes, slightly more contemporary choices for renovated properties.

The proximity to Forest Park is part of the Richmond Heights character too. Many homes have a more urban feel than you’d find further west in the county — smaller lots, closer street fronts, more pedestrian visibility. Our designs work with that: front-of-home lighting that looks intentional from the sidewalk as well as from the street, careful glare control so we’re not blasting pedestrians, and warm color temperatures that fit the era of the home.

Whether you’re near Maplewood Avenue, the Saint Mary’s Lane area, near the Galleria, or in any of Richmond Heights’ established neighborhoods, we’d love to walk your property and design something that fits the home and the block.

Our Past Projects

Services Available in Richmond Heights

Every Richmond Heights property is unique.

Here’s what we design and install across the area:

Home Accent Lighting

Richmond Heights's block-by-block architectural variety makes each accent design genuinely custom, with porch and entryway lighting carrying most projects.

Outdoor Pathway Lighting

Shorter front yards still benefit from well-placed pathway runs that read as intentional rather than decorative.

Patio Lighting

Compact backyards become primary outdoor living spaces here, where patio lighting drives most of the project's usable evening footprint.

Deck Lighting

Holiday Light Installation

Permanent Roofline Lighting

String Lighting

Bistro Lighting

Outdoor Audio

Commercial Landscape Lighting

Local Considerations:

Richmond Heights is a varied inner-ring market with significant differences in scale and architecture between neighborhoods — a project on Bellevue can look nothing like a project two blocks away near the Galleria. Smaller lots mean projects are typically compact, but detail orientation is high. The Galleria-adjacent area also generates commercial lighting interest for storefronts and mixed-use buildings.

Our approach

Designed for Richmond Heights

01 Designing for smaller, central-county lots

Richmond Heights lots are generally smaller and more urban than further-west suburbs. That means fixtures have to be scaled down and placed precisely. We use lower-output fixtures, careful aiming, and warm color temperatures that don't overwhelm small front yards or spill into neighbor properties.

02 Architectural mix on every block

Richmond Heights blocks often have multiple home styles side by side — a bungalow next to a Cape Cod next to a renovation. We tailor each lighting design to the specific home rather than applying a generic neighborhood template. The goal is for your house to look right after dark — not for the street to look uniform.

03 Pedestrian-aware front yards

Because Richmond Heights is walkable, your front-yard lighting is seen by neighbors strolling by, not just passing cars. We design glare-free lighting that looks intentional and balanced from sidewalk view — no jarring brightness or poorly-aimed fixtures pointed at the street.

04 Working with renovated and infill homes

Many Richmond Heights homes have been renovated extensively while keeping the original architectural footprint. We design lighting that complements both the original character and any contemporary updates — sometimes a hybrid approach, with traditional placements but slightly more modern fixture styles.

Why Richmond Heights Homeowners Choose Us

Why Richmond Heights homeowners pick us for their inner-ring homes and walkable streetscape

We scale lighting for smaller, central-county lots

Richmond Heights lots are urban-scaled. We use lower-output fixtures, precise aiming, and warm color temperatures that fit the home and don't spill onto neighboring properties. Small lots need more precision, not less.

We adapt to architectural variety on every block

A single Richmond Heights block can include a 1920s bungalow, a 1940s Cape Cod, a 1960s ranch, and a recent renovation. We tailor each lighting design to the specific home rather than applying a generic neighborhood template.

We design pedestrian-aware front yards

Richmond Heights is walkable. Your lighting is seen by neighbors at sidewalk-level, not just from passing cars. We design glare-free lighting with warm tones and balanced placements that fit the inner-ring suburb character.

We work with renovated and infill homes

Many Richmond Heights homes have been extensively renovated while keeping the original architectural footprint. We design hybrid approaches — traditional placements for the original architecture, slightly more contemporary fixture styles for updated elements.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently hired Landscape Lighting Guys to help with my home lighting system, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I first met Matt while he was preparing a proposal for a large lighting project in our subdivision’s common areas. He took the time to meet with us multiple times, answer questions, and walk through the details of the project. During those meetings, I also had him take a look at my home’s landscape lighting system. Over the years, I had several different companies work on my lighting, and after some recent landscaping work, some wires were cut and pulled out, and fixtures were pulled out of their proper location.  My system needed to be reset and repaired. Matt provided a beyond fair and detailed proposal, and his crew got right to work. What impressed me most was that they weren’t interested in taking shortcuts. Tyler and George explained that they could simply reconnect some of the old wiring, but they weren’t comfortable doing that because they couldn’t guarantee the long-term results. Instead, they took the time to trace the system, replace wiring where needed, and correct several issues left behind from previous installations. It was obvious they cared about doing the job correctly rather than just getting it done. The end result is actually better than what I had before. A few simple adjustments to fixture placement and aiming made a huge difference in how the house and landscaping are illuminated at night. The attention to detail was outstanding. Tyler and George were also incredibly professional and friendly throughout the entire process. They cleaned up after themselves, polished the fixtures, answered questions, and treated my property like it was their own. That level of service is hard to find these days. I’m also excited that Matt offers maintenance and service plans. One of the biggest challenges with landscape lighting is finding someone who understands your system and can maintain it properly over time. It’s reassuring to know I now have a trusted company that can keep everything looking great for years to come. If you’re looking for a company that values quality, professionalism, and long-term customer relationships, I highly recommend Matt, Tyler, George, and the entire team at Landscape Lighting Guys.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We met Matt many years ago when his business was young. His professionalism and dedications were matched by his crew. Years later we used his Company again, after we moved. We were just as impressed. Their suggestions, especially the Bistro Lights over the patio, were spot on. Another great job, And another round of compliments from our neighbors!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did quite a bit of talking with several lighting companies in the beginning. Some didn’t show up for an appointment, one didn’t call back when I asked to make some changes to the bid, so I looked for someone who was honest, had integrity, and listened to what I wanted, but had great ideas as well. The Lighten guys fit the bill perfectly. My house lighten was done in the winter, but I knew I would like to add to it as soon as my garden was in full bloom. Matt came out today and again I was so pleased with his ideas! It’s going to be perfect! Thanks bunches Matt! Sue

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt and his team originally designed and installed our landscape lights in 2021. We were thrilled with his expertise on placement of the lights. The end result turned out great. We still get compliments on our lighting. My favorite part is the yearly check and fix of any issues. His team cleans, checks and repairs lights, wires or any other issue each year. Hassle free for us. Highly recommend this company.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our lights were installed at least 10 years ago and worked fine except we had some trees removed and some were damaged. Those  3 were  replaced and all the others (32) were serviced, cleaned and new bulbs. Excellent work thank you.

Richmond Heights FAQ

Common questions

Do you offer free estimates in Richmond Heights?

Yes. Matt or one of our designers will walk your property at no cost and put together a written proposal.

Can you scale lighting for smaller central-county lots?

Absolutely. Smaller lots require precise fixture choices and careful aiming. We use lower-output fixtures and warm color temperatures that fit the scale of the home and don’t spill into neighbor properties.

How long does installation take in Richmond Heights?

Most Richmond Heights projects are completed in a single day, given the smaller lot sizes. Larger or more complex designs can take 1-2 days.

Do you work on bungalows and 1920s/30s homes?

Yes — period bungalows are one of our favorite project types. We use warm color temperatures, low-profile
fixtures, and lighting placements that respect the home’s era and character.

Can you handle whole-property design for a smaller Richmond Heights home?

Yes. Whole-property lighting can absolutely work on smaller lots — sometimes more dramatically than on large ones, because every fixture has a clear purpose and visible effect.
