Outdoor Lighting in Multnomah County
Multnomah County is the heart of the Portland metro and home to PDX Outdoor Lighting. The county spans the City of Portland, Gresham, Troutdale, Fairview, and surrounding communities — a genuinely varied geography running from close-in city neighborhoods with century-old housing and mature canopy out to the eastern suburbs where Gorge wind makes winters colder and harder on hardware. We design to each setting rather than applying a template.
Across the county we install landscape and garden lighting, architectural and facade uplighting, path and walkway lighting, deck and patio lighting, security lighting, and smart controls — plus a steady volume of repair work on aging systems installed by others. The county's mature tree canopy is its standout lighting asset: Douglas firs, big-leaf maples, and Japanese maples are the best subjects in the region, and most yards do nothing with them.
Whether you're a homeowner in close-in Portland, a property manager in Gresham, or a business needing facade and security lighting, PDX Outdoor Lighting is a licensed, insured, local contractor with hardware built for Northwest winters. Contact us for a free consultation anywhere in Multnomah County.
Reviews
What Multnomah County Homeowners Say
“Other quotes were a fixture count on paper. These guys walked the yard, explained what each light was doing and why, and the plan matched what we got.”
Landscape & Garden Lighting
Mark R.
Lake Oswego
“Our 1912 Craftsman vanished after dark. They lit the columns and the gable and left everything between them dark. The contrast is the whole thing.”
Architectural & Facade Lighting
Jennifer L.
Irvington, Portland
“Steep lot, and the walk down was dangerous in the wet. Staggered path lights plus lights in the step risers — fewer fixtures than we were quoted elsewhere, better result.”
Path & Walkway Lighting
David S.
West Linn
“Half our system had been dark for two years. They found it in twenty minutes — corroded connectors — and told me the transformer was fine. Could have sold me a new one.”

Our Process
How We Work in Multnomah County
Free Design Consultation
We walk your property with you, talk through what you want the space to feel like after dark, and note the trees, architecture, and pathways worth lighting — no pressure, no obligation.
Your Lighting Plan
We put the design on paper fixture by fixture — what gets lit, from where, with which beam spread — and price it as a fixed proposal. Nothing is ordered and no deposit is taken until you've approved it.
Clean, Low-Voltage Install
Our crews hand-dig and tuck 12-volt cable below grade, set transformers discreetly, and mount solid brass and copper fixtures — with your lawn and beds left the way we found them.
Night Aiming & Ongoing Care
We return after dark to aim every fixture by eye, set your timer or app schedule, and walk the finished system with you — then keep it dialed in with optional annual maintenance.
