FAQs
Lighting & Irrigation in Horley: FAQs
Do you provide lighting & irrigation across all of Horley?
Yes, we cover the RH6 postcode area in full, including Massetts, Lonsdale, Smallfield, Horley Row, Westvale Park.
Is low-voltage garden lighting safe to install outdoors?
Yes — low-voltage systems run through a transformer that steps mains power down to a safe outdoor voltage, which is why they're the standard approach for garden lighting rather than running mains-voltage cable to individual fittings.
Can irrigation be set up to water automatically while I'm away?
Yes. A timer or smart controller can run watering zones on a set schedule, and smart controllers can also adjust for rainfall or be controlled remotely, which is useful for holidays or busy periods.
Does living near Gatwick Airport affect planning permission in Horley?
Some development types near the airport are subject to safeguarding consultation with the airport operator as part of the planning process. This does not apply to all projects, and we advise on the specific position for your address.
