Lighting!! Christmas Lights, Decorative Lights, Seasonal Lights, and more!!
In our never ending goal to provide our clients with the most in everything "outdoor," Greco Landscaping made a huge financial commitment by signing on as a Bright Ideas Decorating distributor. Last year, our first year in the lighting arena, we were fortunate to hang over 100,000 lights!

LED Lighting!
Long lasting and energy efficient LED lights shine with gorgeous color and incredible intensity for more than 50,000 hours indoor or outdoor.
LED is the lighting of the future as they consume 90% LESS electricity than standard incandescent bulbs. Another advantage to LED's are the service hours. Incandescent bulbs traditionally burn out after about 3,000 hours where as the LED's last 30,000 to 50,000 hours! One of our customers is using 250 bulbs to outline the ornamental thatched roof of their building. It will cost them around $6 dollars a month as opposed to $54 in the incandescent bubs previously installed!!
LED lighting is is an eye-catcher with many colors and styles available. How would you like to promote your business without spending a fortune on print, radio or cable TV adds?
LED lighting is the sophisticated approach to attraction without promotion.
A Little History...
Our first contract in our lighting endeavor was more of an emotional one than a financial one. We were chosen to provide the Karen Ann Quinlan Memorial Tree with a "sprucing-up."
Meeting with Special Events coordinator Jennifer Smith on a cold rainy after noon in last November, we saw that the Tree of Lights, located in Milford, Pennsylvania, was in dire straights.
Our General Manager, Mike Patire, took on the awesome responsibility of pruning, edging, landscaping, and removing the existing incandescent lighting and fixtures. After Mike finished with the job of preparing the tree, he then painstakingly installed over 2,100.
Here is the letter from Karen Ann Quinlan Hospice before the project began:
Russ,
As a follow up to our conversation, we are thrilled to have Greco Landscaping work with us to revive and beautify the Karen Ann Quinlan Hospice Lights of Life Tree in Milford’s Memorial Park. After carefully reviewing your proposals, we have selected the package that incorporates the landscaping, pruning, removal of lights along with the 2,100 LED mini-lights.
Russ, I thank you and Greco Landscaping for approaching this very special project with the same enthusiasm that we and many Pike County families have about this meaningful memorial tree.
Jennifer
