Picture a dusk-to-dawn security lighting setup around your Long Beach home: floodlights covering the perimeter, motion sensors blanketing walkways and side yards, every blind spot lit before you even reach the switch. Whether you live in a craftsman near Belmont Shore, a condo off Pine Avenue, or a hillside property overlooking the Port of Long Beach, the right lighting layout makes your home less appealing to trespassers and more welcoming when you pull in after dark. Well-placed perimeter lighting also adds genuine curb appeal, which matters in a city where properties range from waterfront showpieces to quiet residential blocks east of the Pike. Shaffer Construction holds a rare triple CSLB license (A, B, and C-10), meaning we can pull permits for structural and general building work that often accompanies a lighting project, not just the electrical portion. Most Long Beach area contractors carry only the C-10. We handle permitting in-house, working directly with the City of Long Beach Building Department so your project stays on schedule without third-party delays. Owner Mike Shaffer sets the company's standards and oversees operations, while experienced crews handle every installation. Ready to upgrade your home's security lighting? Call (323) 642-8509 or email hello@shaffercon.com for a free, no-obligation estimate. We'll walk your property, talk through sensor placement and fixture options, and give you a straightforward quote. No pressure, no surprises.
