Pool and Pool Deck Lighting Installation
At Astoria Lighting Co, we offer a full suite of amazing features to give you the best experience in the Pool and Pool Deck Lighting space!
Create a Backyard Resort After Dark
A pool is the centerpiece of many backyards, but without proper lighting, its enjoyment ends at sunset. Pool area lighting transforms your backyard into an evening resort.
Imagine your pool sparkling under the stars, surrounded by softly illuminated landscaping, with comfortable seating areas glowing invitingly.
Swim After Dark
Extend pool season well into the night with lighting that lets you enjoy the water after work or on warm evenings.
Water Safety
Essential illumination around the water’s edge, steps, and walkways for safe nighttime enjoyment.
Evening Entertaining
Host pool parties under the stars with an atmosphere that rivals vacation destinations.
Visual Beauty
Enjoy the stunning visual beauty of your illuminated pool and landscaping from indoor and outdoor spaces.
Whether you want to swim after work, host evening pool parties, or simply enjoy the view — proper pool lighting makes it all possible while adding essential safety around the water.
Pool Deck Lighting Options
Pool deck lighting illuminates the hardscape areas surrounding your pool, providing safe passage and ambient atmosphere for evening enjoyment.

Landscape Lighting Around Pools
The landscape surrounding your pool contributes significantly to the overall atmosphere. Lighting these areas enhances the entire pool environment.
Tree Uplighting
Illuminate palm trees, ornamental trees, or specimen plants to create a tropical resort feel around your pool.
Garden Bed Lighting
Softly lit garden beds frame the pool area and provide visual interest beyond the water’s edge.
Water Features
Illuminated fountains, waterfalls, and spillovers add captivating movement and sound to the evening ambiance.
Privacy Hedges
Subtly lit to define boundaries and create an intimate enclosure without harsh glare or light spill.
Layered Design
Create layers of light that draw the eye around the space while keeping the pool as the central focus.
The right landscape lighting turns your pool area into a complete outdoor environment — not just a pool, but a destination. We design every element to work together as one cohesive scene.
Safety Lighting for Pool Areas
Safety is paramount when lighting pool areas. We design every installation with safety as the primary consideration, ensuring adequate illumination without creating hazards of its own.
Pool Edge Visibility
The pool edge must be clearly visible at all times to prevent accidental falls into the water. Low-profile fixtures mark the boundary without obstruction.
Steps & Level Changes
Every step and level change around the pool needs illumination to prevent trips and falls, especially on wet surfaces.
House-to-Pool Pathways
Pathways between the house and pool should be well-lit for safe navigation, guiding guests confidently in the dark.
Emergency Access
Emergency access points should be easily identifiable at night, ensuring quick response when every second counts.
Important Design Note
Lighting should not create glare on the water surface that could obscure visibility of swimmers or objects in the pool. We position every fixture to illuminate without creating reflective hazards.
We design pool area lighting with safety as the primary consideration — ensuring adequate illumination without creating hazards of its own. Every fixture placement is evaluated for both function and risk.
Pool House and Cabana Lighting

Outdoor Kitchen Lighting
Task lighting illuminates food preparation and cooking areas so you can grill, prep, and serve safely after sunset.

✓ Food-safe brightness
Cabana & Seating Areas
Ambient lighting creates comfortable spaces for relaxation, conversation, and unwinding by the pool after dark.

Wall Sconces
Mounted on pool house exteriors, providing both decoration and function with an architectural design element.

From outdoor kitchens to cabanas, we design lighting that makes every poolside structure fully functional and beautiful after dark — seamlessly integrated with your overall pool lighting plan.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Are the lights replaceable?
Can the lights provide true warm white?
How do payments work?
How much electricity does it use?
Is it designed for extreme temperatures?
Yes! Each light and connection has an IP 68 Waterproof rating and can operate at -40° F to 130°+F. All connections and wires are UV rated and will be able to last if ever exposed to long periods of sunlight (which they will not be as they are installed under the roofline). The track is made out of aluminum which is durable and won’t rust or degrade–the same material your gutters are made from.
What is the warranty?
Astoria Lighting Co provides a Lifetime Warranty on all permanent holiday light bulbs included in your system. Additionally, we offer a 10-year “bumper-to-bumper” warranty on all installed parts, plus a 3-year service warranty on labor.
What is the cost per foot?
At Astoria Lighting Co., we install industry-leading permanent lighting systems designed for long-lasting performance and outstanding value. We offer brighter LED lights, true warm-white capabilities, a closed track system, individually addressable lights, and many other important features that our competitors do not offer. It is priced according to how much linear feet you want installed on your home, plus a Wi-Fi controller and power supply system, rather than on the square footage of the home, and the length of rooflines can vary dramatically for houses of similar size. Because of this, we have to measure your roofline in order to give you an accurate quote.
However, as a guide, we typically run in the $20 to $28 dollar per linear foot range—plus $250-450 for controllers and power supplies–depending on the time of the year, as we frequently offer pricing promotions during the Spring and Summer months to encourage our customers to get their systems installed outside of the busy fall holiday season. Most of our jobs fall into the $2500 to $5500 range—sold, installed, and warrantied, with all taxes and fees included—to put lighting where customers would typically hang their Christmas lights. We offer great payment options that allow you to spread out the cost over time, resulting in significant savings versus hanging traditional Christmas lights, installing pot or can lighting, or otherwise improving the look of your home.
