Pergola & Deck Lighting in Verona & Madison, WI
Soft light overhead and along the stairs, for the structures you use in the evening.
A pergola, pavilion or deck is often where Madison families sit after dinner, so it gets used most as the light is going. Our pergola and deck lighting runs along beams and posts, down deck stairs and along rails, so the space glows instead of glaring. When we’re building the structure, the wiring is planned into it from the start.
Lighting That Fits
the Structure
Wired with the build. On pergolas and pavilions we build, the wiring runs inside or along the framing, not stapled on afterward.
Stairs and edges first. Deck stairs and the step down to the patio or lawn get light before anything decorative.
Set for Wisconsin winters. Fixtures go where snow sliding off a roof or ice building up won’t pull them loose.
Licensed and insured. Ask us for proof. Ask everyone you’re considering.
Planning a pergola, pavilion or patio cover? Add the lighting to the same plan, so the wiring is hidden in the frame instead of added later.

Why Overhead Lighting Often Goes Wrong
Overhead lighting is usually the last thing added to a pergola or deck, so it ends up wherever an outlet happens to be. Light the stairs first, then make it pretty.
Lighting added to a structure as an afterthought usually means:
One bulb in the middle that blinds whoever sits under it
Extension cords stapled along the beams
String lights torn down by the first storm
Deck stairs left dark, where the light matters most
How we build: Overhead lighting works when it’s soft, spread out and planned into the frame. Light the way in and out first, then the seating area, and the structure becomes somewhere you can stay after sunset.
