Peckham gardens come alive after dark with a well-planned lighting scheme that improves safety and atmosphere. Whether you’re walking from the back door to the shed or entertaining friends after a day at Peckham Rye Park, the right fittings make a big difference. We install path lighting, wall lights, spotlights and festoon lighting with neat cabling and clean finishes. Work is tailored to SE15 homes, from compact courtyards to longer terrace gardens.
Our team regularly works across Nunhead, East Dulwich and Queen’s Road, so we understand the mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and converted warehouse apartments. Period brickwork, narrow side returns and shared access routes often shape where cables and transformers can go. We design lighting that complements original features while keeping glare low for neighbours. If your garden has decking, we’ll integrate discreet deck lights for safer steps and edges.
We start with a site visit to map routes, focal points and power options, then propose a layered plan using low-energy LEDs. Installation is tidy and tested, with clear zones for path lighting, uplighting and feature spotlights. You’ll get straightforward guidance on solar options and smart controls, including timers and app-based scenes. Fine Landscaping is based in Norbury—about 25 minutes away—so support and follow-ups are quick and reliable.
In the London Borough of Southwark, access can be tight on terrace streets and parking can be time-limited, so we plan deliveries and installation days carefully. Many SE15 gardens have mature planting and older paving, so we use low-impact trenching and protective conduit where needed. We also consider light spill in closely spaced homes, choosing beam angles and shielding to keep neighbours comfortable. For properties near places like Peckham Library or the Bussey Building, we can create a contemporary look that suits modern conversions too.

Costs depend on the number of fittings, cable runs and control options. As a guide, a small scheme with 4–6 path or wall lights is often £900–£1,800. Medium gardens with 8–14 fittings, transformers and zoned switching typically fall around £2,000–£4,500. Larger designs with smart controls, multiple zones and feature uplighting can be £5,000+. We’ll always survey first and itemise options.
Most installations take 1–2 days for a small to medium garden, including testing and aiming the lights at dusk. Larger schemes or gardens with long cable routes, decking integration or multiple zones can take 3–5 days. Timescales vary with access, ground conditions, and whether we’re working around existing paving, planting or drainage. If you’re adding smart controls, we allow extra time for setup and handover.
Garden lighting is usually permitted development, especially when fittings are low level and within your boundary. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, or if you’re fixing lights to certain elevations or near shared boundaries. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and can advise on best practice to reduce light nuisance. If permissions or landlord approvals are needed, we’ll help you gather the right details before work starts.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty, covering installation quality such as cable routing, connections and fixing methods. Individual fittings and transformers also come with manufacturer warranties, which vary by brand and specification. We provide commissioning checks, aiming adjustments and clear instructions for timers or smart controls. If a fault occurs, we’ll diagnose whether it’s a component issue or an installation matter and resolve it promptly.
We can create anything from subtle, warm-white path lighting to dramatic uplighting on trees, brick walls or architectural features. Popular choices include powder-coated aluminium bollards, stainless steel spotlights, recessed deck lights, and discreet wall lights with downwash. Festoon lighting works well for dining areas and courtyards, while solar options suit spots without easy power access. We’ll recommend colour temperature, beam angles and control zones to match your garden’s layout and style.
