Garden lighting is cheapest when the ducting goes in as the patio, steps and walls are built; adding it later means lifting paving. We design it as a scheme of a few well-placed fittings, with the electrical work done and certified by a registered electrician.

Light that works
Step and riser lights for safety, low uplighters on trees and walls, and soft light around seating areas, rather than a floodlit garden. Low-voltage fittings keep running costs small.
Planned with the build
Ducts and junction boxes go in with the sub-base, so cables never sit under slabs where they cannot be reached, and nothing has to be lifted later.
The kind of finish we build
“Really pleased with my new driveway. Beautifully finished, friendly professional workmen, would definitely recommend and will be using them again for the garden once other renovations complete.”

What garden lighting costs
A path, step and border lighting scheme typically costs up to about £1,500 installed, and a full multi-zone garden scheme £2,000–£6,000 or more. A new outdoor circuit is priced separately.
Garden lighting does not need planning permission, but a new outdoor mains circuit is notifiable electrical work, so it is done and certified by a registered electrician. Keep lights pointing down and away from neighbours' windows.
