Create a sensation with illumination

Lighting is integral to how you’ll use and enjoy your garden. It should not be an add-on or afterthought. If you’ve decided on a beautiful water feature, you’ll want to see it sparkle and shine as you sit in the garden or look out the window as night falls. If you’ve spent a small fortune on stunning plants and flowers, you’ll enjoy them all the more if they are illuminated correctly. If your garden is to be an elegant dining or funky entertaining space, the right lighting will create the right ambience.

Lighting can do so much. But it needs meticulous design, planning and installation, and for that, you need a specialist.

Before any light is ordered, let alone installed, we’ll want to explore the purpose of your garden. How you intend to use it will dictate how, and how much, it is lit. We’ll also be interested in your style, personality and interior design of your home as well as dreams and vision for the garden. Contemporary or country style, family or friends, practical or wow-factor, any prominent features to define and your budget – we’ll take all of this into consideration.

Applying our expertise, creative eye and using the latest high-quality products, we’ll create for you a lighting solution that brings your garden to life as the sun sets. Able to be controlled remotely through wireless devices, you’ll enjoy the view of your garden while you relax or entertain, without even stepping outside.

For the perfect finish for your garden project, contact us for specialist outdoor lighting advice, design, supply and installation now.

I’m John Doyle

A qualified electrician, I had my personal ‘lightbulb’ moment 15 years ago. In lighting a garden, I suddenly saw the incredible impact I could make with creative and cleverly installed lights. I realised how integral the lighting was to setting off a stunning garden design and how poor or non-existent lights could let it down.

Since then, garden lighting has been my passion and my profession. I have found my practical skills as an electrician, combined with my talent for creativity and artistic interest, make me perfectly placed to complement the work of garden designers, landscapers and people investing in their gardens.

I remain fascinated by challenges and interesting briefs; gardens for socialising in, planting schemes that can be enhanced, the trend towards winter gardens and all year-round outdoor dining.

The potential for lighting a garden is huge, I can see it the minute I walk into a home. And it starts at the front door. Style and functionality are everything when it comes to any design and garden lighting is no different. When I advise on outdoor lighting - it will reflect your internal lighting, personality and preferences.

As I highlighted to a group of Garden Designers in a talk recently, the darker it is, the less light you need. This is because in contrast to total darkness, a tiny amount of light can create a vast amount of illumination. Light is there to create an illuminating effect, not draw attention to itself. Understanding this is one thing, but applying it is another, and that’s why garden lighting is such a delicate balance.

Carefully thought out, expertly and safely installed outdoor lighting solutions are what I live and breathe every day.

Absolutely delighted with our lighting - if you’re in need of someone to help with outdoor lighting, John is your man!

John was a pleasure to deal with, and although our space probably wasn’t the most complex, he was very thoughtful in his approach, and has helped us achieve exactly what we wanted.

I found John at Light your Garden through a Google search and sent an enquiry on the website. From that moment John was hugely responsive, flexible and consultative in delivering a garden lighting plan. More importantly he delivered beautiful soft lighting across the whole of the back of our Surrey garden which we now enjoy every evening. Thank you. Would highly recommend.
