On a wild and scenic river with the canopy to match.
Tequesta sits on the Loxahatchee under heavy tree cover. We light the trees as much as the house.
Putting up your own lighting in Tequesta is a hot, awkward, slightly dangerous way to lose a weekend.
You drag the box out of the garage and half of it is dead — the sun and the salt air finished it months ago. Now you are on a ladder in ninety-degree humidity, reaching over a tile roof that was never meant to be walked on.
Hours later it is… fine. A little crooked over the garage. And next season you get to do the whole thing again, with fixtures that have spent a Florida summer going brittle.
There's a better way — and homeowners across Palm Beach and Martin County have already found it.
Imagine doing absolutely nothing — and having the best-lit property on the street.
Whether you are at Tequesta Country Club, in Riverbend, along the river, or on one of the streets off Country Club Drive — the design starts with the canopy.
- Custom-designed for your home — not generic store strands
- Installed by trained, insured South Florida locals
- Maintained all season — a dark bulb is our problem
- Taken down and stored, clean and damage-free

The Loxahatchee is one of only two federally designated Wild and Scenic Rivers in Florida.
The designation covers the stretch running past Tequesta, and it is why the cypress and mangrove along the banks are still intact rather than bulkheaded.
The village grew up under that canopy, and the tree cover through Tequesta Country Club and the older streets is heavier than almost anywhere else this close to the coast.
Under a canopy this dense, uplighting is the whole design. Roofline work alone disappears into the leaves.
We light every street in Tequesta.
We are not a national chain parachuting in with a truck of generic strands. Badger Outdoor Lighting is locally and family owned, working Palm Beach and Martin County from Loxahatchee:
Built for a Tequesta season.
River and coastal air together keep humidity high year-round, and the canopy holds that moisture against everything underneath it. Add full UV where the cover breaks and a real storm season.
- Year-round UV at subtropical intensity: UV-stabilised materials that resist the fading and brittleness that destroys cheap plastic in a single Florida summer
- Salt air along the coast: commercial-grade housings and sealed connectors specified for corrosion, which is what ends ordinary fixtures here
- Hurricane-season wind: low-profile, properly anchored installs, with seasonal hardware that can be removed quickly when a storm is forecast
- Daily summer storms and humidity: weather-rated connections built for water intrusion, not for a dry climate
Not a franchise. Not a truck full of generic strands.
Specified for salt air and sun
Coastal corrosion and year-round UV destroy ordinary fixtures here. We use commercial-grade housings, sealed connectors and UV-stabilised materials rated for the climate.
Four services, one team
Landscape, permanent, holiday and bistro lighting from the same crew — so the scheme holds together all year instead of being bolted on each December.
Canopy and specimen uplighting
Cypress, oak and palm under heavy cover are the feature here. Uplighting through a canopy is specialist work and it is most of what we do in Tequesta.
Locally and family owned
Badger Outdoor Lighting works Palm Beach and Martin County from Loxahatchee, with a local crew rather than a seasonal subcontractor.
Designed, not catalogued
Every plan is built around the architecture, the palms and the sightlines on your lot — balanced placement, no hot spots, no dark gaps.
River-adjacent damp
Properties along the Loxahatchee never dry out. Fixtures and connectors are specified accordingly.
One local team for every kind of light.
Landscape Lighting
Uplighting for palms and specimen trees, pathway and entry lighting, and architectural accents — designed around the planting and the way the property is actually used after dark.
Explore landscape lighting →
Permanent Lighting
Low-profile, app-controlled lighting set into the roofline — invisible by day, any colour by night. One install covers the holidays, game days and everyday presentation, year after year.

Holiday & Bistro
Full-service seasonal displays, plus bistro and patio lighting for courtyards, pergolas and outdoor living areas — designed, installed, maintained and removed.

If you're not happy, your lights are free.
We're so confident you'll love your display that we put our money where our mouth is. And during the season, if anything is ever not right, we're at your Tequesta door within 24 hours. You will never change a bulb again.
One simple price. Nothing left to you.

How much does lighting cost in Tequesta, FL?
Every property is different — a Country Club home under heavy canopy and a riverfront property need very different designs. We give you a clear custom estimate up front. Start with the form or call (561) 529-6339.
Can you light through heavy tree canopy?
Yes — it is the main challenge here and the main opportunity. We plan fixture placement and beam angles around the canopy so the light reaches where it should instead of stopping at the leaves.
Do you offer permanent lighting in Tequesta?
Yes. Permanent architectural lighting is a low-profile, app-controlled system set into the roofline — invisible by day, any colour by night. One install covers the holidays, celebrations and everyday presentation.
Can you light palms and specimen trees?
Yes, and it is among the most effective work we do here. Uplighting royal palms, oaks and specimen planting turns the landscape into the focal point of the property after dark.
Do you work on commercial and HOA properties?
Yes. Clubhouses, gated-community entrances, retail frontages, restaurants and HOA common areas are regular work alongside residential projects.
Will the lighting survive hurricane season?
Fixtures are specified for coastal wind and corrosion, and seasonal hardware is designed to come down quickly when a storm is forecast. Permanent systems are installed low-profile and properly anchored.
