Why Gresham Homeowners Choose Us
Local Expertise
We work across Gresham and the Portland metro year-round. We know the region's trees, its slopes, and exactly what eight months of rain does to hardware that wasn't chosen for it.
In-House Crews
We never subcontract our core work. Our trained, full-time crews handle design, installation, aiming, and service — consistent quality and one point of accountability.
Built for Oregon
Solid brass and copper fixtures that patina instead of corroding, waterproof silicone-filled connectors instead of twist caps, and properly sized cable. It's why our systems outlast the big-box kits by decades.
Priced Before You Commit
Every project gets a fixture-by-fixture plan and a fixed-price proposal before anything is ordered. No deposits against a bottom-line number and no surprises on the invoice.
About Gresham
Outdoor Lighting in Gresham, OR
Gresham is the second-largest city in Multnomah County, and its east-county position gives it a noticeably different climate than inner Portland. East wind funneling out of the Columbia River Gorge makes Gresham winters colder with sharper freeze-thaw cycling — which is exactly the condition that destroys cheap outdoor lighting. Composite fixtures crack, water gets in, and systems that were fine in October are dark by February. It's a strong argument for the brass and copper hardware we specify as standard.
Much of Gresham's housing dates to the 1960s through 1980s, and a large share of our work here is replacing or repairing systems installed years ago with builder-grade or big-box components. We diagnose with a meter, tell you plainly what's worth saving, and rebuild what isn't — rather than selling a repair we know won't last through another Gorge winter.
We also do a steady amount of new work in the newer subdivisions on the city's south and east edges, plus security and facade lighting for commercial properties along the Powell and Division corridors. From Rockwood to Powell Valley and up around Gresham Butte, contact PDX Outdoor Lighting for a free consultation.
Reviews
What Gresham Homeowners Say
Real reviews from real Gresham-area homeowners. See the difference quality craftsmanship makes.
“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.”

Recent Projects
A sampling of the landscape, architectural, path, patio, and security lighting we design and build across the Portland area.

Architectural & Facade Lighting
Architectural Facade Lighting
Front-elevation uplighting across the Portland area — grazed stone and siding, accented gables and columns, and warmly lit entries that give a home real presence after dark.

Landscape & Garden Lighting
Landscape & Garden Lighting
Layered low-voltage lighting through planting beds and specimen shrubs, designed on site at night so the garden reads with depth instead of washing out flat.

Landscape & Garden Lighting
Tree Uplighting & Moonlighting
Cross-aimed uplighting on Douglas firs and big-leaf maples, plus in-canopy moonlighting that drops soft dappled shadow across the ground below.

Path & Walkway Lighting

Staggered, shielded path fixtures guiding entries, garden paths, and steps — glare-free light on the ground, no runway effect, built in solid brass.

Deck, Patio & Outdoor Living Lighting
Decks, Patios & Outdoor Living
Pergola downlighting, rail and step fixtures, and dimmable zones that keep Portland patios and outdoor kitchens usable well past sunset.
Our Process
How We Work in Gresham
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.
