Conduit runs under the walkway while the base is still open. That means no cut pavers later, no trenching across a finished lawn, and room to pull new wire years from now without touching the surface.
Tyler holds an Inlite outdoor lighting certificate alongside his CMHA and Belgard credentials. Fixture selection, transformer sizing and voltage drop are calculated, which is why the last fixture on a run is as bright as the first.
These systems run at 12 volts from a transformer, not household current. Safe to work around with kids and pets, and safe to dig near later if you add a bed or a tree.
Fixtures get set clear of snow clearing paths where possible, and mounted so frost movement does not push them out of line. We plan the layout around how you actually clear the walk.
Tyler is on every project. The person deciding where each fixture sits is the same person who designed the walkway it belongs to, so the lighting follows the build instead of guessing at it.
Our warranty covers the installation: the sleeves, the wire runs, the connections and the fixture setting. Fixtures carry their own manufacturer warranty, and we tell you which covers what before you spend a dollar.
Path lights carry the walkway. Step lights and recessed wall lights handle stairs and retaining walls, where a post fixture would be in the way. We use solid brass and cast fixtures because plastic housings do not survive many Winnipeg freeze and thaw cycles.
The hidden half is what separates a system that lasts from one that fails. Transformer sized to the load with headroom to expand, wire gauge chosen to control voltage drop across the run, and sealed connections rather than twisted caps in a buried box.
You call or send a form with your project scope and location. Tyler or a team member responds within one business day with questions and preliminary guidance. If it sounds like a fit, we book a site visit.
Tyler walks the property with you, ideally once in daylight and once after dark. He looks at your grade, your entry route, where the steps are and where you clear snow. Fixture positions, beam spread and transformer location are decided on site, with samples available.
A detailed line-item proposal covers labour, fixtures, transformer, wire, sleeves and any hardscape work, with a layout plan included. Once approved, we lock in a confirmed start date and order materials.
The most important phase. Conduit sleeves go in across the walkway while the base is still open, wire runs are pulled and buried at depth, and the transformer is mounted and sized to the load with room left for future zones.
Fixtures are set, then aimed after dark, because that is the only time you can see what a beam is actually doing. We set the timer, walk the finished system with you, explain the warranty, and show you where every run and sleeve sits before the project is closed.
