Install Paver and Pathway Lighting

Sat around waiting for the sun to be JUST right 
What happens here
Following the design plan, proceed with installing recessed lights into or along the pavers to illuminate pathways and define the patio's edges. This typically involves carefully removing existing pavers, digging shallow trenches for low-voltage wiring, placing the paver lights, and then running the wiring back to a central low-voltage transformer. For new paver installations, integrate the lights during the initial paver laying process. Ensure all connections are waterproof and buried safely to prevent damage and ensure longevity. The paver lights provide subtle, effective illumination that enhances safety and visual appeal in the evening.
Goal: Integrate lighting directly into the patio pavers and pathways.
