Pike installed similar lighting in the overhang on the rear patio of my home. Love them. Pikes does the job right.

Cassandra - is that a Villages home as it does not look like any model I've ever seen (but I like it)?

They are using similar lighting on new builds. They look great!

Do you know where we can find pics of new built homes in TV with down lighting?

Why is advertising allowed in Talk of the Villages? Now this site will become full of ads.
And, to respond to Pike’s Electric: I can’t even imagine house to be lit up like that. Landscape lighting is different. It is subdued and beautiful in most cases.

oh interesting, good question!

assuming these are LEDS, what is the temperature of the lights?
am thinking these will be in the 2K range if white. .

thanks

Attached are some photos of a home we installed some led soffit wafer-style can lights. Check out how bright they are in the early evening! We installed these on the homeowner's provided timer/dimmer, but usually, we provide a new led dimmer for dimming functions. This homeowner went with the wafer fixtures in a black finish, to match the dark roof/eaves of his home, and my, what a great outcome this was!

"thanks for the lights looks sooooo nice! We are very happy. The guys very professional and clean." - mr. Merced-gonzalez

does this look appealing for your home? I would love to help you get set up for a free at home estimate. You are welcome to call or office (352-748-6251), send us a direct message, or email me at cnelson@pikeselectric.com! Please be sure to mention you saw us on talk of the villages, because we will give you 5% off the normal cost of installation for any and all of our services. Wishing you a beautiful weekend!

ok, what did this electrical job cost?? Bottom number??

The house shown may not even be in The Villages since there are overhead electrical lines. If not in The Villages, no, they wouldn't need Villages ARC approval.

Someone is going to turn you in.

Beautiful, but probably a bug magnet.

i'm thinking blue is much easier on the eyes @ night, & would solve the problem of disturbing the neighbors. not sure the temp of bulbs , how would i find out?

This is a huge ad. Is advertising such as this permitted on this site?
