Transform your deck into a captivating outdoor space with CHS Custom Decks & Design. Serving the Twin City Metro Area and beyond, we blend creative lighting solutions with expert craftsmanship to bring your outdoor vision to life. From subtle ambiance to functional brilliance, our deck lighting enhances both beauty and usability.
Proper lighting around stairs, railings, and pathways helps reduce the risk of trips and falls, especially during evening hours when visibility naturally drops.
From soft glows to dramatic highlights, lighting sets the tone. Whether you're hosting guests or unwinding solo, a well-lit deck elevates the entire mood of your outdoor space.
Your deck doesn't need to go dark after sunset. With the right lighting, your evenings outside can stretch longer—more dinners, more conversations, more quiet moments.
Integrated lighting makes your deck look complete and thoughtfully designed, which translates to stronger curb appeal and potential returns when it's time to sell.
Modern LED systems offer impressive brightness with minimal power usage. Some setups even allow smart scheduling or solar integration, reducing long-term costs.
We work closely with you to plan the perfect lighting layout, considering your deck’s structure, intended use, and personal style for a customized, balanced look.
Our team handles every part of the installation process—from mounting fixtures to adjusting placement—ensuring a clean, secure, and efficient setup that lasts.
Licensed and experienced, we take care of all wiring and connections in-house. No need to hire outside electricians or worry about complicated electrical code requirements.
Take control of your lighting with smart technology. We install systems that let you schedule, dim, or adjust brightness using your smartphone, tablet, or home automation setup.
We seamlessly tie in your deck lighting with surrounding landscape features like walkways, gardens, or patios to create a cohesive outdoor lighting experience that flows naturally.
