Comparing landscape lighting quotes in Austin? The biggest hidden difference is fixture material — the #1 factor in how long your system lasts in the Hill Country climate.
Aluminum & plastic: cheaper today, costly later
Budget systems corrode, oxidize, and crack under Austin sun, heat, and sprinkler spray — often within 3–5 years, so you pay to replace what you already bought.
Solid brass: install once
Brass doesn’t rust. It develops a natural patina and performs 20+ years in the exact conditions that destroy aluminum. More up front, cheaper over the life of the system.
Bottom line
Choose brass if this is your home and you want it to look great for decades. We install solid brass with LED lamps on every system.
