March 12, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
Big Easy Lighting, a residential and commercial lighting contractor serving properties in the greater New Orleans metropolitan area and Northshore communities, announced the addition of two new service categories to its residential lighting lineup: color-changing lighting installation and deck and patio lighting installation. The two services expand the company’s residential offerings, which already include curb appeal lighting, festive string lighting, landscape lighting, pathway lighting, and sphere lighting.
Big Easy Lighting color-changing lighting service covers the design, installation, and maintenance of programmable lighting systems that allow the property owner to adjust the color output of exterior fixtures remotely using a smartphone or tablet application. The company stated that color-changing installations use LED-based fixtures and bulbs that can be programmed to display a range of colors, transition between colors on a timed schedule, or be set to a single static color based on the property owner’s preference. The service includes customized color scheme designs, in which the company’s lighting designers work with the property owner to select color configurations that complement the property’s architecture and landscaping. Licensed electricians install color-changing systems, handling all wiring, fixture mounting, and integration with existing electrical infrastructure, according to the company.
The deck and patio lighting service of Big Easy Lighting addresses the specific illumination requirements of outdoor living areas, including elevated wood and composite decks, ground-level patios, covered entertainment areas, and transitional spaces between the home’s interior and the outdoor landscape. The company stated that deck and patio lighting installations serve both functional and safety purposes, as these structures are used during evening hours and require illumination of walking surfaces, stair treads, railing edges, and seating areas to reduce the risk of trips and falls in low-light conditions. Fixture selection for deck and patio installations takes into account the material composition of the structure, the degree of weather exposure at the installation location, and the proximity of the fixtures to outdoor cooking and dining areas where heat and moisture conditions differ from other parts of the property’s exterior.
The addition of both service categories reflects the role that outdoor living spaces occupy in residential properties across southeastern Louisiana, where the extended warm season and mild winter temperatures support year-round use of decks, patios, and screened outdoor areas. The company noted that properties in the New Orleans metropolitan area and Northshore communities frequently include outdoor entertainment areas, covered patios, and elevated deck structures that are used for evening dining, hosting, and recreation throughout the calendar year. Lighting systems installed in these areas must be rated for sustained exposure to the region’s humidity, rainfall, and occasional wind-driven storm conditions, which the company’s installation specifications account for in fixture selection and mounting methodology.
Big Easy Lighting provides residential lighting services including curb appeal lighting, festive string lighting, landscape lighting, pathway lighting, and sphere lighting. The company’s commercial lighting services include garden lighting, LED lighting systems, outdoor lighting, and up and down lighting. The company’s installation process begins with an initial consultation and site survey, followed by custom design and engineering, and concludes with installation, maintenance, and ongoing service support. Big Easy Lighting serves properties in New Orleans, Metairie, Kenner, Covington, Mandeville, Madisonville, Hammond, Abita Springs, LaPlace, and St. Rose.
“Color-changing systems and deck and patio installations each have technical requirements that differ from standard landscape or pathway lighting, particularly in terms of wiring configuration, fixture weather rating, and control system integration,” said a representative of Big Easy Lighting. “The two service categories were added as distinct offerings because the design, fixture specification, and installation methodology for each are specialized enough to warrant dedicated project scoping rather than being included as a subset of general residential lighting.”
