Our solutions depend on your problems. Every situation is unique and, in our experience, “one size fits all” does not work, so light, plants, water and drainage are planned together.

How lighting gets done right

Judged at night. Made for the night.

Outdoor lighting is seen after dark, so that's when it gets finished. Here's how one customer described working with us.

  1. 01

    Tell us what you want lit

    Send the estimate form or call. Michael calls you back to talk through the front of the house, the pool cage, the dock, or all three.

  2. 02

    Fixtures you can feel

    Our own Zflex line of weather-resistant LED fixtures, with a 10-year warranty. “…we really liked how solid the lights felt, their knowledge of the products, the follow up service they provide and warranty on the lights themself.”

  3. 03

    A clean, low-voltage install

    A stand-alone low-voltage system, with no changes to your home's wiring. “They quickly got everything installed, answered all our questions and explained things along the way.”

  4. 04

    What the neighbors saw

    “He showed up promptly at 8:30, adjusted the lights and secured the electrical box. A few neighbors walked over to see how beautiful they lit up the front of the house.”

Quotes from Christine S., Google review, June 2020.

Drainage

From standing water to solid ground.

Low-lying, flat Tampa Bay lots hold water after every storm. Standing water promotes lawn disease, structural damage and pests, especially mosquitoes, roaches, carpenter ants and termites. We install French, surface, channel and hybrid drains to route it somewhere better.

★★★★★

“I had this company install a yard drainage system at my home. They earned 5 stars in every category: responsiveness, communication, pricing, delivery, and quality of workmanship.”

Irrigation

Two seasons. One smart schedule.

Tampa Bay has two seasons, wet and dry. Overwatering in the wet season wastes water and money; underwatering in the dry season can damage or even kill a lawn. We install programmable controllers with a rain sensor, so the system waters regularly but not after it rains.

Wet season

May to October

Hot and wet. Afternoon storms do much of the watering, so the controller should back off.

Dry season

November to April

Mild and dry. The lawn depends on the system, so coverage and schedule matter most.

Required

Rain sensors, by Florida law

Florida requires automatic sprinkler systems to have technology that stops them after enough rain.

Landscaping

Right plant, right place.

Every Zuzack landscape starts with a free on-site consultation to capture your vision and exchange ideas. Tampa falls within USDA Hardiness Zones 9b and 10a, which allows a year-round growing season. Timing and plant choice are what make it last.

Questions

Good to know

Still wondering about something? Call (813) 812-1360.

What does Zuzack Outdoor Design do?

Zuzack Outdoor Design (Zuzack, LLC) designs and installs low-voltage LED landscape lighting, landscaping, irrigation and drainage for homes and businesses around Tampa Bay, from its base in Apollo Beach, Florida.

Where does Zuzack work?

Mainly Apollo Beach and MiraBay, South Tampa, FishHawk, Lithia and Valrico, and Westchase and Carrollwood. See all service areas.

Is the estimate free?

Yes. Estimates and the landscaping consultation are free. Call (813) 812-1360 or request one online.

How much does outdoor lighting cost?

Most Zuzack lighting systems start around $4,000. That typically covers landscape up-lighting, some path lights, and the transformer and wire. We build packages to fit every customer's budget, and every home is quoted individually. The final price depends on how many fixtures you need, the zones and transformers, wire runs, warm white or color, and the controls. Our lighting cost guide explains each factor.

Does landscape lighting mean rewiring my house?

No. Zuzack installs stand-alone low-voltage systems that don't require installing, rewiring or otherwise modifying the electrical wiring of your structures.

Will outdoor lighting raise my power bill much?

We use LED fixtures. According to the U.S. Department of Energy (opens in a new tab), LEDs use at least 75% less energy than incandescent bulbs and last up to 25 times longer.

What warranty do the lights have?

Zuzack designs its own line of outdoor LED fixtures, Zflex, and installs it with a 10-year warranty on our own Zflex fixtures, and up to 20 years on other brands, depending on the fixture. If you'd rather use a fixture brand you already know and trust, we install other brands too. Landscaping (plants and sod) carries no warranty, because plant health depends on watering and care after planting.

What are Zuzack's hours?

Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 5 PM. Closed Sunday.
