We design and install energy-efficient garden lighting for homes across Harpenden, including Batford and Wheathampstead, creating practical outdoor lighting for gardens, patios, pathways and driveways.
At KG Electrical Contractors, we work with homeowners in Harpenden and nearby areas such as Batford and Wheathampstead who want their gardens to be easier to use once daylight fades. We design and install garden lighting for patios, pathways, driveways and entrances, planning each scheme around how you move through and spend time in your outdoor space rather than following a fixed layout.
We take time to understand your garden’s layout and existing planting before installing lighting using outdoor-rated fittings, compliant wiring and energy-efficient LED solutions. This approach delivers a safe, reliable outdoor lighting system designed to perform well in UK conditions and continue to suit your garden over time.
Our garden lighting improves visibility, highlights key features and helps Harpenden homeowners make better use of their outdoor space after dark, whether the garden is compact or more extensively landscaped.
We installed discreet lighting and power across three designer gardens at RHS Wisley. Using 32 lights and six power supplies to highlight rare plants and create a calming, immersive evening experience.
During a £14 million spa refurbishment, we worked with leading designers to install lighting for a tranquil courtyard garden — a scheme that brings calm, elegance, and atmosphere as day turns to night.
Working alongside lighting and garden designers, we delivered a bespoke scheme for this six acre estate in Chesham covering ancient trees, meadows, fountains, and formal gardens.
Our aim is to help you use your garden more comfortably once daylight fades, keeping the process clear, practical and focused on how your outdoor space actually works.
We begin by getting to know your garden and how you spend time in it during the evenings. That means understanding movement routes, seating areas, levels and features that matter most. From there, we plan lighting that feels balanced and purposeful, not overly bright or decorative.
We install garden lighting using fittings designed for outdoor conditions and wiring methods that comply with UK standards. Our team works carefully and respectfully, keeping disruption to a minimum and ensuring the finished installation feels like a considered part of the garden rather than something added later.
As planting grows and gardens change, lighting often needs to adapt. We can maintain, adjust or extend your lighting so it continues to suit your space and performs reliably over time.
Our garden lighting work has been recognised within the industry, reflecting the care we take with both design and installation. That experience shapes how we approach every project, regardless of size.
Behind effective garden lighting is solid technical work. We apply our electrical expertise to ensure your lighting operates reliably outdoors, remains energy efficient and continues to perform as intended long after installation.

Our Process
01
We start with a friendly consultation to understand your garden, your goals, and how you use the space. Then we assess the site and put together a lighting concept that fits both the layout and the mood you want to create.
02
Once the design is agreed, we’ll send a clear, itemised quote with no hidden extras. From there, we plan the install and schedule a time that works for you — often coordinating with landscapers or designers if needed.
03
We install everything with minimal disruption. Tidy cabling, weatherproof fittings, and a perfect finish. Once it’s all up and running, we’ll walk you through the system and offer ongoing support if needed.
The cost of garden lighting can vary depending on several factors. Including the size of your space, the number of fittings, the type of lights used, and how complex the cabling or installation is. We’ll always provide a tailored, transparent quote after reviewing your garden and understanding what you want to achieve.
Yes lighting design is an essential part of our process. We’ll work closely with you to understand how you use your space, what kind of atmosphere you want to create, and which features to highlight. If you’re already working with a garden designer, we’re happy to collaborate.
We regularly install lighting in established gardens. Our team takes care to work around planting, structures, and existing features to ensure minimal disruption. We also use discreet cabling and fittings that blend in with your space.
Yes. We use outdoor-rated fittings and install everything to current safety standards so the lights are safe and durable in UK weather.

It depends on the size and complexity of the job, but most garden lighting installations are completed within 1-14 days. We’ll confirm everything during the planning stage and keep you informed throughout, so there are no surprises.
