Evenings in Purley are made for gardens that feel usable, not hidden. We install discreet path lighting for steps and driveways, feature lighting for planting, and security lighting where it matters most. Whether you’re near Purley Cross or heading out towards Riddlesdown, we’ll create a lighting plan that looks intentional from every angle. All installations are tidy, low-glare and designed to reduce dark spots.
Purley’s large detached houses, 1930s properties and period homes often have generous frontages, side access and mature borders that deserve careful illumination. We regularly work across Purley Oaks, Kenley and Sanderstead, balancing kerb appeal with practical lighting for bins, gates and garages. For older homes, we route cabling with minimal disruption and choose fittings that complement brickwork and traditional detailing. For newer extensions and patios, we integrate deck lights and smart controls for effortless use.
We start with a site survey, then produce a clear layout showing beam angles, cable routes and switching options. Our team handles safe wiring, neat trenching and professional commissioning, including timers, sensors and app-based controls. You’ll get straightforward guidance on brightness, colour temperature and glare reduction, plus aftercare advice for long-term performance. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clean workmanship and a finish that looks considered in daylight and at night.
In the London Borough of Croydon, access and parking can vary from wide driveways to tighter streets around Purley Way. We plan deliveries, waste removal and cable routes to keep disruption low and avoid blocking neighbours. Gardens near the North Downs can include sloped plots and mature roots, so we adapt fixing methods and trenching depths accordingly. For CR8 properties, we also consider sightlines from upper-storey windows to prevent glare.

Costs vary by the number of fittings, cable runs and control options. As a guide, expect around £100–£500 per light installed depending on the fitting type (path, uplight, deck or security) and complexity. Most Purley projects fall between £800–£3,000 for a complete scheme with a transformer, wiring and commissioning. Smart controls, longer distances to power, and more feature lighting can increase the overall spend.
Most installations take 1–2 days, depending on how many lights you choose and how complex the cable routes are. A simple front path and driveway setup can often be completed in a day, while larger gardens with multiple zones, deck lights and smart controls may take two. Timescales can also be affected by ground conditions, access, and whether we’re working around established planting or newly laid paving.
Outdoor lighting is usually permitted for UK homes, especially when it’s within your garden and doesn’t alter the building structure significantly. However, there can be extra considerations for listed buildings, conservation areas, or if fittings are mounted high and could impact neighbours or road users. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and advise on sensible positioning, brightness and sensor settings so your scheme is compliant and considerate.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering installation quality such as cable routing, connections and fixing methods. Individual fittings and smart control components may also carry manufacturer warranties, which we’ll confirm before you approve the design. If something isn’t performing as it should after installation, we’ll diagnose the issue quickly and put it right. We also explain basic maintenance to keep lenses and sensors working properly.
We offer a wide range of styles including stainless steel or powder-coated path lights, discreet recessed deck lights, warm-white uplights for trees and walls, and motion-sensor security lighting. Feature lighting can be used to pick out specimen planting, textured brickwork or steps. We’ll help you choose beam angles, brightness and colour temperature to suit your garden and avoid harsh glare. Smart controls can include timers, photocells, zoning and app control.
