  Our Pledge of Best Practice  
 

Only the highest quality, marine environment proven fixtures and components are incorporated into our designs

(Elegant SOLID BRONZE, COPPER, BRASS OR STAINLESS STEEL -- no inferior painted aluminum recommended or used )

The most appropriate mix of ARTFUL/DECORATIVE, ACCENT, TASK, and AMBIENT exterior illumination is performed on each project

A complete line of optional COMPUTER BASED HOME AUTOMATION AND WEB ENABLED DEVICES maximizing tropical settings and lifestyles are seamless incorporated

Recognized leaders in residential lighting design and application throughout the country are always leveraged--wheel is never reinvented

Our projects conform to state and local codes as well as the International Dark Sky Association's guidelines

We subscribe to the International Association of Lighting Designers (IALD) Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct guidelines

 

 
   
 

At The Dupre Group we pride ourselves in being creative, professional, and flexible. 

The process to engage our exterior lighting team is straightforward, timely, and painless.  Leveraging this design process, we offer ten (10) main sets of non-commercial lighting services:

 

Residential Architecture and Landscape

  1. IMPLEMENTED QUALITY Package (beauty coupled to value is most important)

  2. IMPLEMENTED FULL Custom DESIGN (maximum beauty is most important)

  3. Upgrade Existing System - A (existing design with new wire, fixtures, lamps)

  4. Upgrade Existing System - B (existing design and wire, new fixtures, lamps)

  5. Tune Up (one time existing system maintenance activity including re-lamping)

  6. Maintenance Program (6 maintenance visits per year with lower rate on as needed call repair)

Specialty

  1. Swimming Pool Lighting Upgrade/Repair (LED or fiber optic lighting)

  2. Marine Dock Lighting (highly durable Low Volt, LED or fiber optic lighting)

  3. Underwater Boat and Yacht Lighting (LED from Ocean LED)

Note: Electrical contracting as related to power connections of lighting luminaires is performed by one our trusted and licensed company business partners such as All Power Electric LLC  (FL License # EC13003326) as needed and/or as required by various local and state regulations.

 

 

Range of Clients

 

The range of residential clients we serve include:

  • Home, estate, and yacht owners

  • Condominium associations

  • Home builders

  • Land developers

  • Real estate brokers and agents

Whichever path is chosen, we at The Dupre Group believe strongly in the goal of achieving our client's desired night time "feel" at their homes, property, or businesses.  Our design process is structured to make that "world class feel" a reality --and quickly!

 

Packaged Offerings

 

In order to achieve many, if not all of our client's initial lighting goals, but remain within their predetermined budgets, we have compiled packaged residential lighting offerings.  The approach still accommodates many best practice lighting strategies for architecture, landscapes, pools, and docks but since project variables are kept to a minimum, savings in total effort result.  With this reduced effort for all concerned, we are able to provide the highest value at a lower cost.

For our low voltage lighting packages, each includes:

  • Customized and skilled lighting design

  • 100% Lifetime/handmade/solid cast bronze and copper fixtures or

  • Stainless Steel Fixtures, or

  • Solid Brass or Copper Fixtures (~15% less cost than Bronze --durable but not indestructible)

  • State-of-the-Art stainless steel encased transformers

  • Marine grade direct burial wire

  • Bronze capped wire hubs

  • Full implementation

  • 1 Year Free Maintenance/Support

See the most current industry standard PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION FOR LOW VOLTAGE EXTERIOR LIGHTING SYSTEMS.  We fully meet or exceed this specification when implementing our Packages.

Currently The Dupre Group's Low Volt Packages which fit 1700-4000 sq ft homes are:

  1. Front of home/Property (public Space)

  2. Rear of home/Property (private Space)

  3. Complete home/Property

  4. Complete home/Property and waterfront dock

  5. Complete home/Property, waterfront dock, and landscape sound

  6. Waterfront Dock

--in "180degree" OR "360degree" flavors

 

For fiber optic illumination packages, all use metal halide lamp technology in UL listed light generators and use the highest efficiency, non-glass, and durable end or side fiber optic cable.  Currently The Dupre Group's Fiber Optic Packages are:

  1. Complete Pool enhancement (water feature and perimeter) and Dock*

  2. Complete pool enhancement

  3. Single water feature

  4. Perimeter

  5. Waterfront dock

*All fiber optic illumination projects we currently perform are for existing structures only --ie No new construction sites. 

 

Our Client Focused Design Process

 

Step 1: Meet with our client directly to fully understand their expectations in terms of:

  • Desired level and impact of lighting enhancement

  • Lighting solution attributes--tranquil, dramatic, hi-tech, efficiency, among others

  • Implementation delivery in stages or all at once

  • Frequency of consultation/input

  • Timetable

  • Range of budget 

Step2: With all expectations in mind, design, then present ideas, approach, and proposed solution

 

Step3: Incorporate all of our client's input and ideas, draft a final design** and plan, then begin to implement on an agreed upon date

 

**The Dupre Group now uses Dynascape3 computer aided design (CAD) software by Garden Graphics on all its new full custom projects
