PBA Electrical and Renewables, Maidstone - Garden Lighting

In this blog I will tell you about some of the projects we have worked on and discuss the benefits of garden lighting for your home in Maidstone.

Benefits of garden lighting

Not only does garden lighting provide you with an aesthetically pleasing result it is also key for security. Having a well-lit front door with a PIR censored light gives the impression that someone is home, and you are being watched! Team the lights with a security camera such as Ring Security Floodlight and you have a great security solution for your home.

A well-lit garden will encourage you to utilise your garden more so than if it was in darkness, play sports in the summer evenings and encourage family time outside such as BBQs and family parties.

If you are a nature lover, you will be amazed at the nocturnal creatures your garden will appeal to once you have garden lighting! Expect to see bats, moths and if you are lucky hedgehogs and badgers.

As a prospective buyer, having a garden lighting is a key selling point as it tends to be the last thing people want to deal with when buying a new home.

Our garden lighting projects

Faulkham Wood, Kent.

This project was always going to look good! The client had some fantastic ideas and allowed us to get creative. From the images below you will see how uplighters have enhanced the trees, the swimming pool lighting is subtle yet exciting and the relaxation area is welcoming and just perfect for those summer evenings for BBQs with family and friends. There was a lot of technical and manual work with this project including trenching and a swimming pool control area.

Aylesford, Kent

This beautifully landscaped garden in Aylesford was transformed with 15 spike lights, 5 wall mounted lights broken down into 4 wirelessly switchable zones to create the perfect mood.

Beckenham, Kent

This sweeping drive way was lacking the wow factor and our client also struggled with the dark winter nights parking. This project involved a new garage consumer unit, trenching and ducting the driveway, landscaping, laying concrete bases and installing stylish LED bollards from Ovia Lighting, brick pillar lighting from Timeguard and internal LED battens in the garage. All external lighting is switched on via the sun setting and turned off with a timer to save energy wastage in the early hours.
