NiteLites Outdoor Lighting of Sarasota to Exhibit in the Gulf Coast Florida Home Show

(PRWEB) November 9, 2006 -- NiteLites of Sarasota, the Landscape Lighting Professionals, will be on hand to demonstrate NiteLites high quality low voltage lighting products at the Gulf Coast Florida Home Show. The show, the season's premier home and garden event will be held at the Sarasota Fairgrounds / Robarts Arena November 18th and 19th, 2006. Show hours are 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM on Saturday, and 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM on Sunday. The Gulf Coast Florida's Home Show features everything needed to upgrade your home and garden.

While attending the show, be sure to stop by booth # 66 to see the spectacular collection photographs of homes illuminated by a top quality lighting system provided and installed by NiteLites. Owners Randy and Becky White and their staff will be on hand to answer questions about the practical and aesthetic benefits of architecture and landscape lighting.

Now is a good time to reflect on the past spring and summer with regard to the existing property. What areas were used extensively? What areas, like decks, patios, or gardens, were seldom used, or not used at all after dark? Because of the evening's darkness, these areas go under-used, even though they can be an integral part of the property. What can be done to make better use of these areas is both simple, and less expensive than a construction project.

To enhance the outdoor areas of a property and make them more inviting, and to add to the property's overall ambience, an excellent option is architecture and landscape lighting. When lit, decks, patios, gardens, and pool areas can become extension of the indoor living area. Colors and shapes in a garden come to life. Statues, ponds, gazebos – all become focal points and take on an entirely new look. In short, the addition of a lighting system maximizes the property owner's living and entertainment space. 12 volt outdoor lighting systems are now being recognized as the ultimate home improvement project.

Since lighting systems often start at $2500.00 and may go up to the hundreds of thousands of dollars, NiteLites recommends researching to find a reliable company with national presence that will stand behind its warranty. Since trees, shrubs, and grasses grow and wind and other elements can wreak havoc with lighting systems, NiteLites states that it is also important to find a company that offers a viable maintenance program to keep the lighting investment operational year round.

To sum it up, President and CEO Thomas A. Frederick of NiteLites Franchise Systems, Inc. explains the process this way "Start with a (landscape lighting) company that will show you exactly how your property will look after lights are installed, review the written estimate and the warranty. Then check references, drive by some projects lit by the company, and finally research the size and longevity of the company standing behind lighting system. It is not a difficult process, and it is well worth the time to avoid dealing with a less than reputable lighting company." He also added, that perhaps as much as 25% of their work comes from people who bought systems that no longer work, and that often the original company is no longer in business.

In addition to residential lighting projects, NiteLites creates custom commercial lighting systems for subdivision entrances, clubhouses, pools, driveways, walkways, residential and commercial developments, municipalities, public facilities, and park developments, as well as complexes of apartment, town homes, and condos.
