Brighten up your garden with a splash of outdoor lighting

With the summer months now upon us, more and more people are looking to spend time in their gardens. For many, the moment the daylight ebbs away spells the end of the al fresco enjoyment, and they head inside instead. Doesn’t it seem a shame to stop enjoying the fresh air? Thankfully, the team at Tayside Construction can help you savour those good times for much, much longer.

This can all be achieved with the addition of some fabulous outdoor lighting. Our electrical specialists can illuminate the whole garden for you, for example, or use our design skills to highlight specific locations. Popular choices include the interior of a gazebo, the area surrounding the patio tables or perhaps the external walls of an outdoor bar or summer house.

Spending time in the garden has become increasingly popular for so many of us, especially perhaps on a pleasant Sunday afternoon when there’s nothing on the agenda. Covered decking is always a magnet, and it can continue to be well into the evening if you have a selection of festoon lights to increase the ambience. The overall effect can be impressive, and with a patio heater added you could stay there well into the wee small hours.

Adding extra allure to your water feature

If you have a pond in your garden, you’ll already be aware of what an attractive focal point it can be. As the hours of darkness encroach, you can make the pond even more bewitching with the addition of lighting. You can choose underwater lights, to use an example, or perhaps pondside globe lights that will reflect beautifully off the water. Then, just settle back in your garden chair and think about how wonderful life can be.

One of the best ways to enjoy the garden with friends and loved ones is to commission the design and construction of a garden bar. They provide the perfect excuse to get together with like-minded pleasure-seekers and enjoy a few drinks and perhaps some al fresco dining. Add in a large-screen TV and you can enjoy blockbuster movies and major sporting events as well.

For all your lighting options, it’s important to use low-energy LED lighting wherever possible. This will not only help the environment, it will also keep your running costs to a minimum. And as with all electrical jobs around the home, the team at Tayside Construction can provide you with an affordable quote, as well as assistance with the overall designs that you might have in mind.
