Superior Systems will install a lightscape for your property that will remain in place and in focus for years to come. Landscape Lighting enhances any property and proper application of light will provide a level of safety and security while accenting your home. Our professional design consultants will meet with you to determine your lighting needs. We can make your property the talk of the town, during the Holidays and all year long.
Water features offer a treat to your senses. The tumbling, splashing water can sparkle in the sun or moon light. The fresh scents generated by the flowing water and pond vegetation help you relax and renew. In addition to Lightscaping, we have been drawn into the realm of Water Features. A gentle trickle or the wild rush of water as it tumbles over boulders or down a stream can add magic to a yard.
Bring a new experience to your life and allow Superior Systems to transform your outdoor space! Garden environments, entryways, driveways and courtyards are all enhanced by the presence of a vase fountain. Peaceful, elegant and timeless fountains bring auditory and visual beauty together to provide pleasure to everyone.

Based in Lake Barrington, our locally owned lighting company, Superior Systems provides spectacular landscape and Christmas lighting throughout all of the Barringtons, and beyond. Our expert designers and innovative installation techniques make us your top choice for all of your exterior and holiday lighting needs.
Here at Superior Systems, we design a lighting plan specifically for your home or business.
Each property is unique and deserves artful attention to enhance its natural beauty while adding a level of safety and security. We believe that the light fixtures should not be the focal point of your landscape, but rather be placed and focused to enhance your home and property. Through proper design and installation, lighting will display your home in a new way, and direct your eye to what is being illuminated. Whether you want path lighting to make night time walks safer or if you would like enhanced security while accenting your home and gardens, through the use of up-lights and "moon lighting," our team of designers will craft something just for you that will blow
you and your guests away. Your yard is meant to be a place of beauty and enjoyment. Let us
take your vision and make it into reality!
And when Christmas time rolls around, call us for your holiday light installations. No need for
you to deal with the hassle and stress of putting up Christmas lights, to say nothing about taking them down! Our team will take that task off of your to-do list, so you can spend more time enjoying your holidays. As with the landscape lighting, more usually is not better. At Superior Systems, we make your Christmas lighting our priority which makes your decorating easy, tasteful, and elegant.
There are many different materials you can choose from for your outdoor lighting fixtures. Material options include plastic, aluminum, stainless steel, copper, and brass. The material you choose to go with will depend on the weather conditions around your area, price, and longevity.
Plastic is your cheapest option, however it is the least durable. Therefore, it can be easily damaged by weather conditions. This material is short-term and you will typically spend more in the long-run from constant replacement.
Aluminum is low-quality and will therefore also not last very long when used outdoors. To extend the life of aluminum to about 3.5 years, it can be powder and marine coated.
Stainless steel can be more difficult to maintain to keep it looking its best. It is not recommended if you live in an area of high humidity. The grade of steel you purchase will determine its resistance to corrosion and to keep it from discoloring, you should apply an electro-polish finish.
Copper is a great material choice because of its high resistance to corrosion. Copper is also often used as a coat to make other materials stronger. Copper is long-lasting, but will discolor overtime due to the weather.
Brass is an option that will hold up very well in weather. It will cost more, but it has better corrosion resistance, durability, and longevity. To receive the best quality lighting fixtures, be sure to get brass that is less than 15% zinc.
Rain will eventually lead to discoloration in your lighting fixtures. LED products are built to operate in extreme temperatures, however their ability to function can weaken if there are some days with abnormal temperatures. In cold temperatures, LED lighting thrives because less thermal stress is put on the diodes and driver. In very warm temperatures, LEDs will underperform. They will adjust to overwork, which can then lower their life expectancy.
LED lights are meant to last a very long time and on average, last about 50,000 hours!
Installing outdoor water features have many advantages. First, adding flowing water in your home can be very soothing. Therefore, you will increase relaxation and peace. Also, it will attract wildlife. Next, water features will boost curb appeal and property values. If you plan to sell your home in the future, you will be offered a lot more with an addition of a landscape water feature. Further, the installation of water features will lead to improved air quality and reduce any surrounding noise pollution. Finally, water features require very little maintenance, so you do not have to worry about any extra time being spent on your new installment.
Yes! We can help you design and pick out the perfect decorations for your home or business for the holidays. We will install all lighting based on your display and requests and after the holidays, we will remove all your decorations and even store them for you for the following year.
