Good lighting changes how a room feels and how well you can use it. We fit new lighting circuits, add switches and dimmers and plan layouts for kitchens, living rooms and whole homes in South Croydon. Read more about our lighting installation work and how it's planned.
More about lighting installationLED downlights give clean, even light and use far less power than old halogen spots. We plan the spacing so the room is lit without dark patches, fit fire-rated fittings where the ceiling needs them and can add dimming. See how downlights are fitted.
More about LED downlight installationWhether it's a new pendant, a wall light or a heavy chandelier, a light fitting needs secure fixing and the right connections. We take down the old fitting, check the wiring behind it and fit the new one safely. See more about light fitting installation.
More about light fitting installationOutdoor lighting makes paths and steps safer after dark and lets you enjoy the garden on summer evenings. We run outdoor-rated cable and fittings with RCD protection, and can put them on timers or separate switches. Find out how we light gardens in Croydon.
More about garden lighting installationSmart lighting lets you dim, schedule and control lights from your phone or a voice assistant. We fit smart switches and bulbs that work with your home's wiring and set up scenes for different times of day. See the smart lighting options we install.
More about smart lighting installationOffices, shops and warehouses need lighting that's bright enough for the work and cheap to run. We replace old fluorescent fittings with LED panels and battens, and wire lighting controls such as sensors and timers. Read more about commercial lighting for your premises.
More about commercial lighting installationMost commercial buildings and many blocks of flats need emergency lighting so people can find their way out if the power fails. We install emergency lights and exit signs along escape routes, designed to the relevant British Standard. See what emergency lighting involves.
More about emergency lighting installationEmergency lights need a short function test every month and a full-duration test once a year to prove the batteries still last. We carry out the tests, record the results in a log book and fix any fittings that fail. Find out how testing works.
More about emergency lighting testingA good lighting contractor thinks about how a space is used, not just where the fittings go. Ask about layout, colour temperature and dimming, and check that the electrician is registered with a recognised scheme and will test and certify the circuit.
ED Electrical Services Ltd has been in business for 40 years and is NAPIT registered. We'll talk through the look you want, quote for free and leave the new lighting tested and certified.
Call or send a message about the job. For urgent faults we aim to respond the same day, with no call-out charge.
An electrician comes out, checks the job and talks you through the options, then you get a free, no-obligation quote.
When the work is finished, we test everything we've worked on and hand over the right certificate for the job.
Yes. In many homes we can reuse the existing holes and wiring, though some fittings need a larger or smaller cut-out. LEDs run much cooler and use far less electricity, and we can fit dimmable ones if you'd like more control over the light.
Yes. We can suggest a layout that mixes general lighting with task lights over worktops and softer lights for the evening. We'll mark out positions with you before cutting into ceilings, so you know exactly where each fitting will go.
Most non-domestic premises need emergency lighting under fire safety law, and the fire risk assessment for your building will say what's required. We can install a system to suit and set up regular testing, so you have the records if you're inspected.
Usually, yes. We plan the cable route along borders, walls and fences to keep digging to a minimum, and use armoured or outdoor-rated cable where it's needed. Where cable has to go underground, it's buried at a safe depth and the trench is filled once it's tested.
