A well-lit garden changes how you use your outdoor space after dark—safer steps, clearer routes, and a warmer atmosphere for entertaining. Near Holland Park and the Kyoto Garden, we install lighting that complements mature planting and architectural features without glare. Expect clean cable routes, tidy finishes, and lighting scenes that feel natural rather than overdone. We also offer solar options where wiring is impractical.
The Holland Park area is known for large Victorian houses, mansion conversions, and other period properties, often with layered terraces and planted borders. These gardens benefit from subtle uplighting on trees, spotlights for focal features, and wall lights that suit brick and stone façades. We regularly work across W11 and W14, including nearby Kensington and Notting Hill, adapting fittings and beam angles to protect neighbours’ privacy. Where access is tight, we plan deliveries and installation to minimise disruption.
We start with an evening-friendly lighting plan, mapping pathways, steps, seating zones and key views from inside the house. Our team installs to current electrical standards, tests light levels on site, and sets up smart controls so you can adjust scenes from your phone. You’ll get clear recommendations on fitting placement, colour temperature, and energy use before work begins. Fine Landscaping is based around 40 minutes away, and clients choose us for reliable scheduling, neat workmanship, and long-lasting results.
Holland Park gardens often combine mature roots, paved terraces and basement lightwells, so cable routing needs care and good planning. We use discreet trenching and surface-safe methods to protect paving and established planting. Parking and access can be restricted on residential streets, so we schedule efficiently and keep materials compact. Our designs suit the borough’s period architecture while controlling spill light to respect close neighbours.

Costs vary with the number of fittings, cabling distances, and whether you choose smart controls. As a guide, smaller upgrades (e.g., a few path lights and one feature spotlight) often start around £800–£1,800. Mid-sized gardens with multiple zones typically fall between £2,000–£5,000. Larger period properties needing extensive wiring, wall lights and layered uplighting can be £6,000–£12,000+. We provide a detailed breakdown after a site visit.
Most projects take 1–3 days, depending on garden size, access, and how much cabling is required. A simple path lighting run may be completed in a day, while larger schemes with uplighting, deck lights and wall lights can take several days. Timescales also depend on ground conditions, lifting and reinstating paving, and whether you want smart controls configured and tested. We plan works to keep paths usable each evening.
In most cases, garden lighting is permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission, especially for low-level fittings and standard wall lights. However, rules can differ for listed buildings, conservation areas, and properties with specific conditions—common around Holland Park’s period homes. We’ll advise on likely requirements and can help you check with the council if needed. We also design to minimise light spill and avoid nuisance to neighbours.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as cable routing, connections, and fitting placement related to the install. Individual fittings and transformers also come with manufacturer warranties, which vary by brand and specification. We’ll explain what’s covered before you proceed and supply documentation on completion. If a problem arises, we diagnose quickly and prioritise safe, lasting repairs rather than temporary fixes.
We offer a wide range of styles, from discreet stainless-steel or powder-coated aluminium path lights to warm brass uplighters that suit period façades. Popular choices include low-glare bollards, recessed deck lights, festoon lighting for seating areas, and adjustable spotlights for trees and sculpture. You can choose colour temperatures from soft warm white to neutral white, plus smart controls for scenes and timers. We’ll recommend fittings based on your garden layout, finishes, and preferred ambience.
