— Our Process
How It Works
Site survey & design
We visit or assess photos to map out paths, steps, planting and power points, then produce a lighting plan with suggested fittings and control options.
Specification & free quote
You get a written specification listing low‑voltage components, IP ratings, cable routes and controls; quoting visits are free and we use manufacturer‑backed parts.
Install, test & handover
Work is carried out to BS7671 and Building Regs, circuits are tested, residue current devices fitted where needed, and you receive a clear report plus a six‑month workmanship assurance.

Thoughtful lighting design for real Bristol gardens. Whether you want subtle path lights for a Victorian terraced front garden, uplighters to show off mature trees in Bedminster, or recessed deck and step lights for a Windmill Hill patio, GLR Electrical creates practical schemes that match the space. We specify low‑voltage LED fittings and purpose‑made, weatherproof luminaires (appropriate IP ratings) to reduce running costs and withstand our often damp West Country climate.
Neat installation and long‑term performance. Installations use protected conduit and shallow trenching to preserve lawns and planting, with transformers, timers and switches sited for access and safety. All circuits are tested on completion and we provide a simple handover report covering controls, warranty information and basic maintenance. If your lighting forms part of larger electrical works, we can also coordinate testing and documentation to meet Building Regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
A simple scheme — a few path lights and two spotlights — can often be completed in a morning. More extensive installs with trenches, multiple circuits or hard landscaping usually take one to two days. We confirm a realistic timescale with our free site visit or after reviewing photos.
