Addiscombe’s gardens come into their own after dark with well-planned lighting that improves safety and atmosphere. We regularly work near Addiscombe tram stop and around Ashburton Park, installing discreet fittings that guide steps and highlight planting. Whether you want a welcoming approach to the front door or a softly lit patio for entertaining, we tailor the scheme to your layout. Every design balances brightness, glare control and energy efficiency.
Local homes in CR0 range from Victorian terraces to Edwardian houses and 1930s semis, each with different access, boundaries and garden proportions. We plan cable routes that respect period brickwork and established borders, and we choose fittings that suit traditional or contemporary exteriors. For narrow side returns and long rear gardens, layered lighting makes spaces feel wider and more usable. If you’re in East Croydon, Shirley or Woodside, we’ll match the style to your property and lifestyle.
Our process starts with a site visit, lighting plan and clear options for fixtures, controls and running costs. We install safely with tidy cable management, weatherproof connections and careful aiming to avoid light spill into neighbouring windows. You’ll get straightforward guidance on smart controls, timers and solar options where appropriate. Homeowners choose us because we’re 10 minutes away, punctual, and we stand behind our workmanship.
In the garden lighting Addiscombe area, access can be tight on terrace rows and parking can be limited on residential streets, so we plan deliveries and installation efficiently. We’re familiar with typical Croydon soil and mature roots, helping us place spikes and cable runs with minimal disturbance. In the London Borough of Croydon, we also consider neighbour sightlines and boundary walls to reduce glare and light spill. The result is a scheme that looks refined and feels practical year-round.

Costs vary with the number of fittings, cable routes and control options. As a guide, a small scheme for a front path or patio typically starts around £600–£1,200. Medium gardens with layered path lighting, spotlights and a couple of wall lights often fall in the £1,500–£3,500 range. Larger gardens with smart controls, multiple circuits and feature uplighting can be £4,000–£8,000+.
Most installations take 1–2 days for a small to medium garden, including setting out, cabling and aiming the lights at dusk. Larger schemes with multiple zones, decking integration or extensive uplighting may take 3–5 days. Timescales depend on access, the amount of trenching required, whether we’re working around established planting, and if any wall lights need new power feeds from indoors.
Garden lighting is usually permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission, especially for low-level fittings like path lights, deck lights and spotlights. However, restrictions can apply to listed buildings, conservation areas, or if lighting is fixed high on elevations and could affect neighbours. We’ll advise during the survey and, where needed, help you check any London Borough of Croydon requirements to keep everything compliant.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering installation quality such as cable routing, connections and fixing methods. Individual light fittings and transformers typically carry manufacturer warranties, which vary by brand and specification; we’ll confirm these before you choose. If an issue arises, we’ll diagnose whether it’s a fitting fault, water ingress, accidental damage or a connection problem and put it right promptly.
We offer a wide range of styles, from discreet stainless-steel or anthracite path lights to warm wall lights that suit Victorian and Edwardian façades. Popular choices include uplighting for trees, deck lights for steps, festoon lighting for entertaining, and adjustable spotlights for borders. You can choose solar options for selected locations, or mains-powered systems with smart controls, timers and dimming. We’ll recommend colour temperature, beam angles and placement to match your garden.
