Lighting · indoor, outdoor + garden

Good lighting changes a room. Hidden cabling keeps it looking good.

From LED panelling in a bedroom to bollard lights down the garden path and security lights on the drive, Jack designs the wiring run before the drill comes out, so the cables disappear and the finish lasts. Indoor, outdoor, garden rooms and summer houses, all fitted tidy and certified. Tell him what you have in mind and he will price it straight.

What's involved

Lighting that is planned, not just plugged in

The difference between lighting that looks designed and lighting that looks bodged is almost always the wiring you cannot see. Jack plans the run first, every time.

  1. 01

    Talk through the idea

    Whether it is a single room, a kitchen scheme, security lights on the drive or a lit garden path, Jack works out what you are actually after and what will look right, brightness, switching, dimming, the lot.

  2. 02

    Plan the cable route

    Before any holes are made, the wiring run is planned so cables disappear into walls and ceilings, switches land where they make sense, and the circuit is properly protected.

  3. 03

    Fit it tidy

    Indoor LED panels, downlights, kitchen and bathroom lighting, outdoor security and garden fittings, or a sub-main out to a garden room, all fitted neatly and to current regs.

  4. 04

    Test and certify

    The work is tested, certified and left clean. You get a finish that lasts, not cables tacked along a skirting board.

No surprises

What Jack fits

  • Indoor lighting: LED panels, downlights, kitchen and bathroom schemes
  • Dimming and sensible switching designed around how you use the room
  • Outdoor security lights, drive and path lighting
  • Garden bollards, spotlights and outdoor power points
  • Sub-mains and supply to garden rooms and summer houses
  • Outdoor-rated fittings and correct IP ratings throughout

Cables planned to stay hidden, fittings chosen to suit the room and the weather, and every job tested and certified.

A typical job

From a single room to the whole garden

A typical mix Jack gets asked for: new wall and security lights on the front of the house, spotlights and bollards down the garden, and power run out to a summer house, all planned together so the cabling is hidden, the fittings are weather-rated and the switching makes sense from inside. The kind of job where the result looks designed because the wiring behind it was.

Straight answers

Questions, answered.

How much does lighting installation cost?

It depends entirely on the job, a few downlights is a very different thing to wiring a garden, a summer house or a whole new lighting scheme. Tell Jack what you have in mind and he prices it straight, with a written quote so you know the number before he starts.

Can you run power and lighting to a garden room or summer house?

Yes. A garden room or summer house usually needs a properly designed sub-main from the house, run safely and certified, not an extension lead trailing across the lawn. Jack plans the cable route, the supply and the protection so it is safe, legal and tidy.

Will the cabling be hidden?

That is the whole point of planning the run before the drill comes out. Jack works out where cables go first so they disappear into walls and ceilings and the finish lasts, indoors and out.

Do outdoor and garden lights need anything special?

Outdoor lighting has to be the right IP rating for being rained on and wired on suitably protected circuits. Jack uses outdoor-rated fittings and the correct protection so your security lights, bollards and garden spots keep working through a Scottish winter.

Tell Jack your lighting idea.

Send him what you have in mind, a room, a garden, a whole scheme, and he will plan the run and price it straight.
