Norwood Grove’s leafy streets and easy access to Norwood Grove Park make outdoor space a real extension of the home. We design lighting that guides you safely along paths, highlights borders, and adds atmosphere for entertaining. Whether you want a calm glow for a side return or brighter coverage near steps and patios, we balance beauty with visibility. We also plan cabling and fittings discreetly so the garden still feels natural by day.
Many homes around Upper Norwood and SE19 are Victorian houses, Edwardian properties, and period conversions with characterful brickwork and mature planting. We choose fittings that suit these façades—think warm wall lights, subtle spotlights, and low-profile deck lights that don’t compete with period features. For larger plots near Beaulieu Heights, we can layer lighting zones for lawns, trees, and seating areas. The result is a cohesive look that feels considered, not overlit.
Our process starts with a site visit to map sightlines, hazards, and the features you want to showcase. We then propose a clear lighting plan covering path lighting, uplighting, festoon lighting, and smart controls, with solar options where appropriate. Installation is tidy and carefully tested, with safe cable routing and reliable weather-rated components. Homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for straightforward communication, clean workmanship, and a finish that performs year-round.
Working across the London Borough of Croydon, we’re used to tight access, shared drives, and on-street parking typical around SE19. We plan deliveries and installation to minimise disruption and protect paving, lawns, and planting. Period properties often need sympathetic placement of wall lights and careful cable routes to avoid visual clutter. We also design with local parkland-adjacent gardens in mind, using shielding and aiming to reduce light spill.

Costs vary with the number of fittings, cable runs, and whether you choose smart controls. As a guide, small schemes (6–10 lights) often start around £900–£1,800. Medium gardens with layered zones and feature lighting typically fall between £2,000–£4,500. Larger designs with multiple circuits, premium fittings, and smart dimming can be £5,000+. We’ll provide a detailed breakdown after a site visit.
Most installations take 1–2 days for a straightforward path-and-patio setup. More complex projects—uplighting trees, adding wall lights, deck lights, and multiple lighting zones—usually take 2–4 days. Timescales depend on ground conditions, the length of cable routes, access around the property, and whether we’re integrating lighting with other landscaping work. We’ll confirm a schedule before we start and keep disruption low.
In most cases, garden lighting is permitted and doesn’t require planning permission. However, restrictions can apply if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if lighting could affect neighbours or the street scene. We’ll advise on sensible positioning, glare control, and brightness levels, and we can help you check any relevant Croydon guidance if needed. Electrical work is carried out safely and to current standards.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty, covering installation quality and the integrity of the work we complete. This includes issues such as cable routing, connections, and fitting placement when used as intended. Individual light fittings and transformers may also carry manufacturer warranties, which we’ll confirm in your proposal. We test and commission the system on completion, and we’re available for adjustments or upgrades later.
We tailor designs to your garden and property style, from discreet stainless or powder-coated black path lights to warm wall lights that suit period brickwork. Popular choices include uplighting for trees, spotlights for focal planting, deck lights for steps, and festoon lighting for dining areas. We can include solar options for selected locations and add smart controls for timers, dimming, and zoning. We’ll recommend colour temperature and beam angles to avoid harsh glare.
