What happens on the day
Each lighting installation appointment follows a structured procedure to protect your property and confirm the completed circuit is safe to operate.
- Arrival and circuit isolationWe arrive during the scheduled appointment window, review the planned lighting layout with you, isolate the electrical supply at the consumer unit and place floor coverings beneath the work area.
- Running cable and fixing luminairesWe pull new cabling or connect to existing feeds, mount the light fittings securely to the structural ceiling or wall, align decorative elements and install the required wall switches.
- Testing and circuit certificationOnce the fittings are connected, we perform electrical dead testing and live testing on the circuit, re-energise the consumer unit, check switch functionality and complete the compliance paperwork.

WhatsAppCan I replace an old light fitting without rewiring the entire room?
Yes, provided the existing lighting circuit is in safe condition and includes adequate earthing. We check the existing wiring, replace the rose or fitting, connect the cables securely and test the circuit to confirm it operates safely.
Do you install outdoor lighting on exterior walls?
We install exterior wall lanterns, floodlights and garden lighting wherever an appropriate electrical supply can be connected. Outdoor fittings are installed using weatherproof accessories and protected circuits.
Will I receive paperwork after a new light fitting is installed?
Yes. We supply written certification for electrical work. Minor alterations receive an electrical installation certificate or minor works record, while notifiable alterations are logged with building control through NAPIT.
Can you change a standard light switch to a dimmer or two-way switch?
Yes. We fit compatible dimmer switches for dimmable LED fittings and can run extra wiring to create two-way or multi-way switching in hallways, staircases and living spaces.
Do you supply the light fittings or do I purchase them?
You can supply your own preferred light fittings for us to fit, or we can provide standard luminaires, downlights and outdoor fittings by prior arrangement.
