Lighting Installation & Repairs

Good lighting transforms a room, and poor lighting is one of the most common frustrations in older homes. We install new lighting schemes and replace tired fittings with efficient LED options, including fire-rated downlights, pendants, wall lights, under-cabinet strips and bathroom-rated fittings.

We also repair lighting faults: lights that flicker, buzz, won't switch off, trip the circuit or have simply stopped working. Many of these are caused by incompatible dimmers and LED lamps, loose connections or failed drivers — all straightforward to fix once diagnosed.

Good to know

LED and dimmer compatibility

Many flickering problems after an LED upgrade are caused by older dimmer switches designed for higher loads. A compatible trailing-edge dimmer usually solves it.

How much does lighting installation cost?

Every job is different, so we price it once we understand what's needed. The main factors are:

Number of fittings and whether they're supplied by you
Ceiling type and loft access
Fire-rated or bathroom-rated fittings
Dimmer and control requirements

We explain charges before we attend and agree the price of any work with you before it starts. Sending photos in advance helps us quote more accurately.
