Light Post Bases in Salt Lake City, UT

Solid Foundations for Lasting Illumination.

A light post is only as stable and safe as the foundation supporting it. Whether you’re illuminating a driveway, parking lot, sports court, or outdoor common area, a properly formed and poured concrete base is what keeps the post plumb, secure, and standing through Utah’s winters and wind events.
We install concrete light post bases for residential and commercial properties throughout Salt Lake City and the Wasatch Front. From decorative yard lights to large-scale parking lot pole bases, we form, pour, and finish to manufacturer specifications and local code requirements.

Built to Spec. Built to Last.

Light post bases need to be sized and reinforced to match the load requirements of the specific fixture and pole being installed. Too small or too shallow, and you risk settling or leaning over time. We review the manufacturer’s anchor bolt pattern and footing requirements before forming each base, ensuring a clean installation that the electrician can connect to and the pole can be mounted on without issue.

What to Expect Working With Us

We coordinate with electrical contractors and property owners to locate bases correctly, set anchor bolts to the right projection height, and deliver a clean concrete finish that looks professional at grade. We can handle single bases for residential projects or larger quantities for commercial parking lot or facility lighting installations.

Serving Salt Lake City and the Surrounding Communities

We proudly serve homeowners and businesses throughout the greater Salt Lake Valley including Draper, Sandy, South Jordan, Murray, Cottonwood Heights, Holladay, West Jordan, Taylorsville, Riverton, Herriman, and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions

How deep should a light post base be in Salt Lake City?

Depth requirements vary based on the height and load of the fixture, but in Salt Lake City, we typically go at least 36 to 48 inches to get below the frost line and ensure the base won't heave. Taller commercial poles require deeper and larger footings.

Do you set the anchor bolts as well?

Yes. We set anchor bolts to the manufacturer's specified bolt circle and projection height as part of the base pour. We coordinate with the electrical contractor or fixture supplier to get the template before we pour.

Can you install light post bases in parking lots?

Absolutely. We work on commercial parking lots and can install bases at grade with clean, flush finishes suitable for high-traffic areas.

How long does it take to pour and cure a light post base?

Most light post base pours take a few hours. The concrete should cure for at least 48 to 72 hours before the pole is set and loaded.

Can you replace an existing light post base that is leaning or damaged?

Yes. We can remove the old base, properly dispose of the debris, and install a new footing to current specifications. It's often less disruptive than people expect.
