All you typically need, to change the bulb on your Landscape's lights, are a pair of rubber gloves & a good Phillips screwdriver. Turn off the lighting system's transformer, first of all. Then with the screwdriver, unscrew the proper housing to then lift, & remove, the glass lens, setting it aside. Usually, the housing screws can be found close to the light itself, most likely on its face. In certain instances, especially with the more modern light fixtures, you won't need a screwdriver as the housing will unscrew itself – but keep one handy just in case.
If you don't have a pair of plastic or rubber gloves handy, what you can do is get a plastic bag & cover it right around your hand as the majority of all Landscape lights will, in fact, use halogen bulbs, which require extremely precise, sensitive handling, for a number of safety reasons. Take out the old bulb from its place, & as you move the new bulb in, make sure to handle it with the utmost of care – by touching its reflector or its rim, & not the bulb itself.
It's always a good 'next step' to check that old bulb, to see if its prongs show any heavy corrosion, which may be the source of the problem in the first place. If the watertight seal holds any leak in it, the whole fixture will most likely need to be replaced as well. The light fixture should usually have two holes, where you should then place the two prongs into (which are on the very bottom of the bulb itself). As you do so, hold the brand-new bulb's reflector, retaining the utmost care. Then, put (or screw) that housing back on, & check for any corrosion through the wire connectors.

We charge for all time allotted to a customer's project, including purchasing & delivering materials, or offsite work like painting lumber prior to an installation, or for the time to dispose of debris. This allows us to take on smaller projects for our client landlords, rather than only lump sum projects with much higher minimums to show up.
Clear Information: We explain our hourly rates on our website & by phone before we schedule any landscaping work so that you know what we charge.
Most backyard gardening projects get a 2 hour window of arrival, so expect something like 7:00am to 9:00am, or 10:00am to 12:00pm, or even 1:00pm to 3:00pm window.
