Energlyn and Penyrheol are two of the most garden-heavy estates I work in around Caerphilly, and it shows in the number of calls I get for outdoor lighting once the evenings draw in. Whether you've got a patio you want lit for evenings outside, decking that needs a proper run of downlights or a driveway that's dark and awkward to walk up at night, I design the lighting around how you actually use the garden rather than fitting whatever's easiest. Family homes near Morgan Jones Park often want lighting that works for kids playing late into summer evenings as well as looking good year round, and I plan cable routes and fittings with that in mind from the start.
Outdoor electrics need to be done properly, not just a cable run from an indoor socket through an open window. I fit weatherproof outdoor sockets, armoured cable where it's buried and RCD protection on every circuit so the whole system is safe even when it's wet underfoot, which matters through a Welsh winter. I've wired lighting for decking in Penyrheol back gardens, feature lighting along patio edges in Energlyn and outdoor power for hot tubs and garden offices across both estates. Everything gets tested and certified once it's in, and I'm happy to talk through low-voltage options if you'd rather keep running costs down on a bigger installation.
Lighting designed around how you use the garden
From patios in Energlyn to decking in Penyrheol, I plan fittings and cable routes around evenings outside, not just what's easiest to install.
Weatherproof sockets and RCD protection
Every outdoor circuit is fitted with proper weatherproof fittings and RCD protection, so it stays safe through wet Welsh winters as well as summer evenings.
Tested and certified when it's in
Once your lighting or outdoor power is fitted, I test the whole circuit and hand you a certificate confirming it meets current regulations.
Your questions, answered
How much does garden lighting cost?
Smaller jobs from around £150, bigger installations priced after I see them. Every job differs, so I give one fixed written price before starting.
Can I add lighting to an existing garden without digging it all up?
In many cases yes. I can often route cable along fence lines or through existing ducting, and I'll always talk you through the least disruptive option first.
Do you fit outdoor power for hot tubs or garden offices?
Yes, I run dedicated circuits with the right protection for hot tubs, garden offices and outbuildings across Energlyn, Penyrheol and the wider Caerphilly area.
Ready for electrics done properly?
