Lighting installation in Lees
- 01
Layering light in a room
Most rooms work best with more than one type of light. General light from the ceiling, task light where you work or read, and softer light for the evening. Planning these layers before we start means each room gets the right switches and circuits.

Switches, dimmers and controls
Two-way switching lets you control a light from both ends of a hallway or the top and bottom of the stairs. Dimmers need to match the bulbs, because many LED lamps flicker on an old dimmer. Smart switches let you control lights from your phone.

Lighting in bathrooms
Bathrooms are split into zones depending on how close a fitting is to water. Lights near the bath or shower need a higher IP rating to keep moisture out. We check the zone for each fitting and protect the circuit with an RCD.
What to expect from a lighting installation
We start by walking through the rooms with you to agree where the lights and switches will go and what type of fittings you want. We check the existing lighting circuits can take the new load, then give you a free quote with everything listed.
On the day, we run any new cables, fit the switches and connect the fittings. Where we have to lift floorboards or cut into ceilings, we keep it tidy and make good as agreed. Everything is tested before we leave, and you receive a certificate for the work.

Lighting installation questions
Can you add new lights without rewiring my Lees home?
Usually, yes. New lights can often be added to an existing lighting circuit if it's in good condition and not overloaded. We test the circuit first. If the wiring is old or the circuit is already full, we'll explain the options before going ahead.
Why do my new LED bulbs flicker on the dimmer?
Older dimmer switches were designed for traditional bulbs and often don't work well with LEDs, causing flicker or buzzing. The fix is usually a dimmer made for LED lamps, paired with dimmable bulbs. We check the bulbs and the dimmer together when we fit them.
Do new lighting circuits in Lees need building control?
Adding a light to an existing circuit isn't usually notifiable, but a brand new circuit is, and so is most work in a bathroom zone. As an NICEIC registered electrician, we register notifiable work for you and provide the certificate.
How long does a lighting installation take in Lees?
Swapping a few fittings is often done in a couple of hours. Adding new lights, switches or circuits takes longer, especially if cables have to run under floors or through ceilings. We tell you how long it will take when we quote.
