What Goes Wrong

Common parking lot lighting failures.

Most dark lots come down to five causes. Knowing which one you have decides whether it is a $300 service call or a $30,000 retrofit — and we will tell you which before you spend a dollar.

Lights out on one pole

Usually a failed driver, ballast, or lamp on that fixture. Often the cheapest fix on the list, and frequently misdiagnosed as a bigger problem.

Whole lot dark

Points upstream — tripped breaker, failed contactor, blown fuse at the base, or a bad photocell feeding the circuit. One repair usually restores everything.

Lights on during the day

Classic photocell failure. Cheap part, quick swap, and it is quietly costing you money on every daylight hour it burns.

Flickering or cycling on and off

Aging HID lamps cycling on thermal overload, or a failing LED driver. Cycling metal halide is telling you it is at end of life.

Knocked-over or leaning poles

Vehicle strikes and corroded base bolts. We handle straightening, base repair, and full pole replacement including the concrete work.

Underground feeder faults

The one most contractors avoid. We locate and repair shorted or wet direct-burial runs between poles instead of guessing.

The Retrofit Math

HID to LED usually pays for itself.

A 1000W metal halide shoebox draws roughly 1,080 watts with ballast losses. The LED that replaces it runs 240 to 300 watts for equal or better light on the ground — a 70% cut on a fixture that burns 4,000 hours a year. Add near-zero relamping and no more bucket truck rolls every eighteen months.

As an Oncor-approved Energy Efficiency Service Provider, we pull the rebate on your behalf. You get real numbers before you commit: current draw, projected draw, rebate amount, and payback in months — not a vague promise about savings.

Straight Answers

Parking lot lighting FAQs.

What does parking lot light repair cost?

A single-fixture repair typically runs a few hundred dollars including the bucket truck. Whole-lot outages are often cheaper than people expect, because one upstream part usually restores everything. We quote before we work.

How long do LED parking lot lights last?

Quality commercial LED fixtures are rated 50,000 to 100,000 hours. At roughly 4,000 hours a year that is twelve years or more — versus relamping metal halide every eighteen to twenty-four months.

Can you fix just one pole, or do I have to do the whole lot?

One pole is fine. Plenty of our lighting calls are a single fixture. We will tell you honestly if the rest of the lot is close behind, but we are not going to force a full retrofit on you.

Do you handle the Oncor rebate paperwork?

Yes. We are an Oncor-approved Energy Efficiency Service Provider, so we file on your behalf and the incentive comes off your project cost.

How fast can you get out here?

Call us and we will give you a real window, not a vague promise. Safety and liability issues get prioritized.

Do you work outside Dallas-Fort Worth?

Our service trucks cover DFW and north Texas. For multi-site retail, restaurant, and church portfolios we coordinate rollouts nationwide.
