Garden electrical services in Nottingham: recessed patio lights and hedge uplighting at night

Garden Electrical Installations - Planned Properly

Garden electrical services in Nottingham are best planned before landscaping begins, not added afterwards. Ideally, we work from your landscaper’s layout plans to map out lighting positions, cable routes and power points before groundwork starts.
Where a landscaper is involved, we can provide marked-up plans so conduits, recessed light housings and power points are built into the project from the start.

For garden rooms, home offices, bars and larger outbuilding supplies, see our Garden Rooms & Outhouses page.

When Should You Involve an Electrician?

If you don’t have a landscaper, we can advise on what groundwork and preparation is needed before the electrical installation begins.

Garden Lighting Installation & Design

Garden lighting transforms an outdoor space, but the range of options can be overwhelming. We’ll help you choose the right combination for your garden, your budget and the effect you’re looking for, so the final setup feels practical, balanced and properly planned.

Lighting is planned around the overall layout to create the right balance between feature lighting, practical use and long-term reliability.

For more help choosing the right setup, view our Garden Lighting Design Guide.

Outdoor Power & Electrical Supplies

Outdoor spaces often require more than just lighting. Power supplies should be planned as part of the overall layout to ensure safe, reliable, and practical long-term use.

We install outdoor power supplies – ideally as dedicated supplies where appropriate – for:

If you or your landscaper are supplying powered equipment or accessories, they may need to meet UK suitability requirements. For more details, view our Customer Supplied Materials guide.

Controlling Your Garden Lighting

A well-designed garden lighting scheme in Nottingham should be easy to control — with the flexibility to switch different areas independently depending on how you’re using the space.

We can provide input and guidance on a recommended zoning layout for your garden, allowing different sections to be switched independently. This gives you full control over which areas are lit and when.

Where running new switch cables back into the property would mean disrupting internal walls or decoration, we use kinetic (wireless) switches — no batteries, no wiring, and no damage to your home.

Matt has been excellent from start to finish. He's explained everything in a language I can understand and has helped me understand which jobs need doing sooner rather than later. He's arrived when he said he would and cleaned up after a messy job. Would absolutely recommend!

My wife and I used Mashworth Electrical Services Limited for 2 separate jobs, one week apart. Both jobs were a full day's work with multiple aspects to each project. Matt was easy to contact and engage. He arrived on time and on both occasions worked throughout the day, without problem or incident until completion. Matt kept us fully informed before, during and after completion each time. Matt made sure that, at every point, he was doing what we wanted. Matt cleared up and left our rooms clean and tidy before departure.We are delighted with our new installations, and the speed at which we received our paperwork and documentation. We are very happy with the end results of Matt's work, and will be sure to use him again should we require future electrical work. We consider Matt's fees to be competitive and very good value. We have no hesitation in awarding our highest possible recommendation to Mashworth Electrical Services Limited. Thank you, Matt!
