Leicester's latitude means we lose outdoor daylight from around 4pm in midwinter. Well-designed garden lighting extends your enjoyment of the garden by months each year — turning an unusable dark space into an inviting outdoor room you can use from the evening meal through to late autumn.
Beyond lifestyle, garden lighting has a measurable impact on security and property value. A well-lit property is significantly less likely to be targeted by opportunist burglars, and buyers consistently rate quality outdoor lighting as one of the features that make a property feel premium and well-cared-for.
We design and install low-voltage LED garden lighting systems across Leicester and Leicestershire — from subtle path lighting and uplighting on specimen trees to fully zoned smart systems controlled from your phone. Every installation is designed with a proper electrical specification before a cable is laid.
We start with a site walk to confirm fixture positions, cable routes and transformer location. If combining with other landscaping, lighting cables are always laid before surfaces go down.
Low-voltage cable is laid in conduit at the correct burial depth, routed to avoid plant root zones where possible. All cable joins are fully weatherproof.
Fittings are installed and connected. We check IP ratings for each position — anything near water features needs IP68 rated fittings.
The transformer is installed, timer and dusk-to-dawn sensor configured, and smart controls set up if included.
Every fitting is tested, beam angles adjusted, and we walk you through the control system with a simple zone guide.
IP44 fittings are not suitable near ponds or anywhere subject to water submersion. Always check the IP rating matches the installation environment — we specify this correctly for every fixture.
Warm white (2700–3000K) creates an inviting atmosphere. Cool white (5000K+) looks clinical and harsh outdoors. Most Leicester garden projects use warm white throughout.
A single on/off switch for the whole garden is a missed opportunity. Zoning the system lets you set the right mood for different uses and reduces electricity costs.
Cable clipped along fences or over surfaces is an eyesore and a trip hazard. All permanent garden lighting cables should be correctly buried or housed in conduit.
Everything you need to know before getting started.
Yes — we can often route cables through existing borders and under paths using a narrow cable-pulling technique that causes minimal disruption to planting and paving. It's worth doing this alongside other landscaping work to reduce costs, but it's absolutely possible on established gardens.
Modern LED garden lighting is very economical. A typical garden with 15–20 low-voltage LED fittings running 5 hours per evening costs approximately £3–£5 per month in electricity. Smart timers and dusk sensors ensure lights only run when needed.
