## Plan the lighting before choosing fittings

Good illumination balances task areas with ambient warmth throughout domestic and commercial spaces. We fit lighting schemes in Swadlincote, Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Derby that suit how you use every room.
- **Indoor downlights and pendants:** From three light pendants over dining tables to recessed downlights in freshly plastered ceilings, we set out lighting grids that distribute lumens evenly without dark corners.
- **Outdoor and garden illumination:** Exterior installations bring functional brightness to access paths and warm festoon lighting to garden rooms, wired safely against weather ingress.
- **Renovation and loft wiring:** We install lighting during house renovations and loft conversions, running neat cable back boxes beside windows and into stripped walls before final plastering.

## What happens on the day

We arrive on your booked date ready to complete your installation cleanly and with minimal disruption to your home or workspace.
- **Access and power isolation:** We identify the relevant circuit at your fuse board, isolate the power safely, and lay protective coverings over floors and work surfaces before handling tools.
- **Cable runs and mounting:** We run cables through ceiling voids or chased walls, fit back boxes, and mount the physical fittings securely in their designated positions.
- **Testing and cleanup:** We verify earth continuity, insulation resistance and polarity, restore power, test switch functionality, and clean up all wire clippings and packaging.

## Lighting installation questions

### Can downlights be added to an existing plasterboard ceiling?

Yes. Where ceiling space permits, we run new cabling through floor voids above or use discreet access points to position downlights without bringing down the ceiling.

### Do you provide the light fittings or do I buy them?

We can provide standard fittings, downlights and outdoor fixtures, or install decorative pendants and feature lights you have purchased yourself.

### Will adding new lights trip my fuse board?

Before starting work, we inspect your consumer unit to confirm the existing lighting circuit has sufficient capacity for the additional electrical load.

### Can you wire outdoor lighting from an existing indoor socket?

Outdoor lighting must have proper RCD protection and separate switching. We evaluate your current consumer unit and extend the circuit using weather-rated cabling.

### Do I need an electrical certificate for a new lighting installation?

Minor lighting replacements do not require statutory notification, but new circuits or work in special locations receive an Electrical Installation Certificate or Minor Works Certificate.
