Evening walks through Wandle Park and along the River Wandle show how good lighting changes a space. We bring that same calm, considered glow to gardens and entrances across SW19. Whether you want guidance lighting for steps, feature lighting for planting, or brighter security coverage, we tailor the layout to your property. Every fitting is positioned to reduce glare and highlight what matters.
Colliers Wood homes range from Victorian terraces to 1930s semis and modern apartments, each with different access, boundaries and power routes. We regularly work around shared side returns, compact courtyards and longer rear gardens common in South Wimbledon and Tooting. Our designs respect period details while adding modern performance and efficiency. If you’re updating a patio or decking, we can integrate lighting so it looks planned, not added later.
We start with a site visit to map dark spots, sightlines and cable runs, then propose a clear lighting plan with options. Installations are completed neatly in 1–2 days, with safe external-rated cabling and careful reinstatement of surfaces. We test aiming, brightness and smart controls before sign-off, and we leave you with simple guidance for use and maintenance. Local homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, clear communication and dependable aftercare.
We’re used to the practicalities of outdoor lighting in London Borough of Merton, from narrow access paths to on-street parking and timed deliveries. In the Colliers Wood area, gardens often sit close to neighbouring windows, so we specify shielded fittings and careful beam angles to avoid light spill. We also plan cable routes around existing paving, drains and mature planting to keep disruption low. If you’re near the Tandem Centre or busy roads, we’ll factor in security and visibility without over-lighting.

For outdoor lighting Colliers Wood area projects, expect around £100–£500 per light installed, depending on the fitting type, cabling distance and controls. A typical garden scheme is usually £800–£3,000 for a balanced mix of path lights, uplighters and a security point. Costs can rise for smart systems, long cable runs, or premium architectural fittings. We’ll recommend options to match your budget and priorities.
Most installations take 1–2 days, depending on how many lights are being fitted and how complex the cable routes are. A simple path-and-entrance setup can often be completed in a day, while larger gardens with multiple zones, decking lights and smart controls may need two. Time can also be affected by access, existing paving, and whether we’re coordinating with other works like new planting or patio upgrades.
Outdoor lighting is usually permitted for UK homes and doesn’t require planning permission, provided it’s within your boundary and not causing nuisance or excessive glare. However, rules can differ for flats, listed buildings, conservation areas, or if you’re adding lighting to shared spaces. We’ll flag any potential issues during the site visit and can advise on sensible placement, brightness and aiming so your installation remains compliant and neighbour-friendly.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering installation-related issues such as cable routing, connections and fitting placement. Manufacturer warranties apply to the actual light fittings and drivers, and we’ll explain what’s included for the products you choose. If a problem arises, we’ll diagnose whether it’s a fitting fault or an installation issue and arrange the appropriate fix. We also offer guidance on maintenance to keep performance consistent.
Popular choices include stainless steel or powder-coated aluminium bollards for paths, recessed deck lights, warm-white uplighters for trees and brickwork, and PIR security lights for side returns. We can also add feature lighting for water elements or statement planting, plus smart controls for dimming, timers and phone app scenes. We’ll help you choose colour temperature, beam angle and finish so the lighting suits your home’s style and avoids harsh glare.
