Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can you replace old fittings with LED?
Yes, this is one of our most common jobs. Most halogen and fluorescent fittings can be swapped for LED equivalents, usually with a noticeable drop in running costs.
-
Do I need special fittings for a bathroom?
Yes. Bathrooms are split into zones, and fittings must carry the correct IP rating for the zone they sit in. We assess this as standard on every bathroom lighting job.
-
Can I add dimmer switches to my existing lights?
In most cases, yes, though it depends on the type of bulb fitted. We will check compatibility and fit the correct dimmer for your fittings.
-
Do you install outdoor and security lighting?
Yes, including PIR security lights, garden feature lighting, and pathway lighting, all wired to a properly protected outdoor circuit.
-
My lights keep flickering, is that a lighting problem or something else?
It can be either. Sometimes it is the fitting or bulb, sometimes it points to a wiring fault further back in the circuit. We test properly rather than guessing.

Choosing the Right Lighting
Power rating, colour temperature, and dimmability all matter, and different rooms need different answers. A kitchen wants bright, even light for tasks. A living room usually wants layered, warmer lighting you can dim.
Bathrooms and outdoor spaces bring zone and IP rating requirements into play, get this wrong and you have a fitting that fails early or, worse, an unsafe installation. We talk you through the right specification for each room rather than assuming one fitting suits everywhere.
If you are planning several rooms at once, it is often worth reviewing your circuits together rather than room by room, particularly if a consumer unit upgrade is also on the cards.
