Hi-Lite Electric handles outdoor lighting installations and service for residential and commercial properties throughout Wheaton and the surrounding DuPage County area. We are a family-owned electrical contractor with deep roots in this community, and we bring the equipment, training, and accountability to back up every project we take on.
When you reach out to Hi-Lite, we take the time to understand the full scope of your outdoor lighting project before providing an estimate, and for larger or more complex installations, an on-site visit is often the best way to give you an accurate picture of what the work involves. From there, we schedule at a time that works for you and show up ready to work, with fully stocked vans that carry the materials and equipment needed to complete most Wheaton projects efficiently. When the work is done, we leave the property clean and walk you through exactly what was installed.

Whether you have a clear vision or just a general idea of what you want, Hi-Lite Electric is glad to serve as a resource as you think through your outdoor lighting goals and any other electrical projects you have on your list. Many Wheaton homeowners who start with a landscape lighting installation end up talking with us about EV charger installation or additional exterior circuits as their plans take shape. We are here for the current project and ready to help you plan the next one.
For straightforward fixture replacements or small installations, we can often give you a clear picture of the scope and estimate after a brief conversation. More involved projects, like full landscape lighting systems or commercial site lighting, typically benefit from an on-site visit before we quote the work.
Depending on the scope of the work, a permit may be required by the City of Wheaton or DuPage County. Hi-Lite has extensive experience working with local municipalities, so we handle the permitting process and know what to expect from local inspectors.
Yes, Hi-Lite Electric offers 24/7 service availability, and our vans are equipped to respond to service calls day or night. If a fixture fails or a circuit trips on a commercial property where lighting affects operations or liability, we can get someone out without waiting until the next business day.
We install a wide range of outdoor lighting, including landscape and pathway lighting, security and flood lighting, deck and patio fixtures, post and pole lighting, and commercial parking lot and site lighting. Both low-voltage decorative systems and line-voltage security and area lighting are within our scope.
Hi-Lite serves both residential and commercial clients in Wheaton and across DuPage County. For commercial projects requiring elevated access, we have bucket trucks and scissor lifts on hand, so pole and canopy lighting installations do not require subcontracting or extra coordination.
Every project includes a 90-day parts warranty and a 1-year labor warranty. Hi-Lite is also ICC Certified, licensed, bonded, and insured, so you have documented accountability behind the work.
Absolutely. Many older homes in Wheaton were built mid-century and may have wiring or panel configurations that need to be assessed before adding new outdoor circuits. Our electricians are trained to identify code considerations and can recommend the right path forward, whether that means a dedicated outdoor circuit or a broader electrical panel service before the lighting work begins.
If you are ready to get your outdoor lighting project on the schedule, or just want to talk through what you have in mind, Hi-Lite Electric is easy to reach and ready to help. We are ICC Certified (#25-0696), licensed, bonded, and insured, and every project we complete is backed by a 90-day parts warranty and a 1-year labor warranty. Reach out today and let us show you what it looks like to work with a contractor that takes the work seriously.
