Home / String Lights
Warm, professional string lighting for patios, pergolas, backyards, pool areas, restaurants, weddings and outdoor dining — designed and installed for Bakersfield homes and businesses.
Custom outdoor lighting
Professionally installed string lighting can completely transform the feel of your outdoor space. Whether you want a warm backyard atmosphere, elegant patio lighting, or modern cafe-style glow, The Light Guys design and install custom systems built specifically for your property — with clean layouts, professional installation, and beautiful nighttime ambiance.
What we light
Warm overhead light for dinners, drinks, and everyday evenings outside.
Comfortable lighting over seating areas without harsh floodlight glare.
Balanced runs that make open yards feel more intentional after dark.
Ambient lighting around pool decks, lounge zones, and outdoor kitchens.
Clean attachment planning when the space needs support points or cable runs.
String lighting for weddings, receptions, backyard parties, and outdoor dining.
Proper string lighting installation takes planning and precision. We use professional mounting methods, clean wire management, and outdoor-rated materials to create lighting systems that look incredible and are built to last — through Bakersfield sun, wind, and every season.

String lighting looks best when the runs feel intentional: the right height, the right spacing, the right attachment points, and the right amount of warm light over the areas people actually use. We plan the system around the property before anything goes up, so the finished installation feels clean during the day and beautiful at night.

How we install
We review patios, seating, dining, trees, structures, outlets, and support options.
Height, direction, attachment points, support cable, and bulb spacing are mapped first.
Mounting, wire management, power routing, and outdoor-rated materials are handled professionally.
We review the finished layout, brightness, tension, and nighttime feel before wrapping up.
Good to know
We install string lighting over patios, pergolas, backyards, courtyards, pool areas, outdoor dining spaces, restaurants, and event venues across Bakersfield. If the space needs support points, we plan tree runs, poles, and cable so the layout looks intentional.
We use commercial-grade, outdoor-rated string lights with durable bulbs and weatherproof connectors built to handle Bakersfield sun, wind, and seasons. The result is a warm, even glow that holds up far better than store-bought strands.
We use professional mounting methods, support cable where needed, and clean wire management so cords and power routing stay hidden. Everything is planned around your outlets and structures before installation, so the finished system looks clean during the day and beautiful at night.
