Evening lighting can transform an SW5 garden from a dark afterthought into a usable, welcoming space. Around Earl's Court tube station and the Philbeach Gardens area, many outdoor spaces are compact but full of character, so light placement matters. We design layered lighting that guides steps, highlights planting, and softens boundaries. The result is a garden that looks considered from indoors and feels safer underfoot.
Homes in Earl's Court often include Victorian mansion conversions, period flats with shared gardens, and garden square properties with formal layouts. These settings suit discreet fittings: low-glare path lighting, uplighting for mature shrubs, and wall lights that complement brickwork and stucco. Where terraces and balconies meet decking, deck lights provide clean lines without clutter. We also work across nearby Kensington, West Brompton and Fulham where access and layouts vary widely.
We start with an on-site survey, then produce a clear lighting plan covering beam angles, colour temperature and cable routes. Installation is tidy and safe, with weatherproof connections, careful trenching and minimal disruption to planting. You’ll receive straightforward handover guidance for timers, smart controls and solar options where suitable. Fine Landscaping is based just 35 minutes away, so aftercare and adjustments are easy to arrange.
In the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, access can be tight and parking restrictions are common, so we plan deliveries and installation times carefully. Many SW5 properties have communal areas, basement lightwells or raised terraces, which affects cable routes and fitting heights. We select corrosion-resistant fittings for sheltered courtyards and urban microclimates. Where gardens sit close to neighbours, we manage glare and light spill with precise optics and shields.

Costs vary with the number of fittings, cable runs and whether you choose smart controls. As a guide, a small scheme (6–10 lights such as path lights and a couple of spotlights) often falls around £1,200–£2,500. Medium gardens with layered lighting and smart switching are commonly £2,500–£5,500. Larger or premium systems with extensive uplighting and bespoke controls can be £5,500–£10,000+.
Most installations take 1–3 days, depending on the number of lights and how easily we can route cables. A simple path lighting run may be completed in a day, while a layered design with uplighting, deck lights and wall lights can take 2–3 days. Timescales are affected by access through mansion blocks, hard surfaces that need careful lifting, and whether you want smart controls configured and tested on site.
Garden lighting is usually permitted development, especially when fittings are low-profile and installed within your garden boundary. However, some properties near garden squares or with listed status can have additional constraints, and communal gardens may require freeholder consent. We’ll ask the right questions during the survey, check any relevant restrictions, and recommend fittings and positioning that minimise light spill and visual impact where rules are tighter.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering installation issues such as cable joints, connections and fitting placement. Manufacturer warranties on luminaires and transformers vary by brand, and we’ll confirm these in writing before you proceed. We also test circuits, set up controls, and provide guidance on maintenance. If a fault appears due to installation, we’ll return to diagnose and rectify promptly.
We offer schemes using path lighting, uplighting, deck lights, spotlights and wall lights, with optional festoon lighting for entertaining areas. Finishes include powder-coated black, stainless steel and bronze tones to suit Victorian façades and modern terraces. You can choose warm white for a softer look or neutral white for crisper definition. We’ll advise on beam angles, glare control, solar options, and smart controls for scenes and scheduling.
