As an electrician on the Isle of Wight with over 30 years’ experience, I’ve seen first-hand how well-designed garden lighting can completely transform an outdoor space. Whether it’s subtle lighting along pathways, feature lighting to highlight planting, or practical illumination for patios and seating areas, professional garden lighting adds beauty, safety, and value to your home.
At Jeelek Electrical Services, we regularly help homeowners across the Island make better use of their gardens all year round with carefully planned and safely installed exterior lighting.
Why Garden Lighting Is More Than Just a Finishing Touch
Many people think of garden lighting as purely decorative, but it serves several important purposes:
- Improved safety – well-lit pathways, steps and entrances reduce the risk of trips and falls
- Enhanced security – lighting acts as a deterrent and improves visibility around your property
- Extended living space – enjoy patios, decking and gardens long after the sun goes down
- Added kerb appeal – tasteful exterior lighting can significantly increase property appeal
As a NICEIC Approved Contractor, safety is always my first priority. Outdoor electrics must be installed correctly to withstand the elements and comply fully with BS7671 18th Edition Wiring Regulations.
Types of Garden Lighting We Install
Every garden is different, which is why I always recommend a tailored approach. Some of the most popular garden lighting installations we carry out on the Isle of Wight include:
🌿 Pathway & Driveway Lighting
Low-level LED lighting guides the way while creating a welcoming feel.
🌿 Feature & Accent Lighting
Perfect for highlighting trees, shrubs, walls, or architectural features.
🌿 Patio & Decking Lighting
Discreet lighting integrated into decking or surrounding seating areas for evening use.
🌿 Security & PIR Lighting
Practical lighting to protect your home without compromising on appearance.
🌿 Smart & Energy-Efficient LED Systems
Modern LED garden lighting offers excellent efficiency, long lifespan, and optional smart controls.
Why You Should Use a Qualified Electrician
Garden lighting isn’t a DIY job. Outdoor electrical installations must consider:
- Weatherproof cabling and fittings
- Correct earthing and RCD protection
- Safe routing of underground cables
- Load calculations and circuit protection
As a trusted electrician on the Isle of Wight, I ensure every installation is fully tested, certified, and built to last. Jeelek Electrical Services is fully insured, and all work is completed to the highest professional standards.
Garden Lighting as Part of a Bigger Project
Many of our customers choose to include garden lighting as part of a wider renovation or landscaping project. Alongside our electrical services, we can also offer full project management, working closely with trusted local builders, landscapers, and other trades to ensure everything runs smoothly from start to finish.
This joined-up approach saves time, reduces stress, and delivers a far better end result.
