Lighting installation in Riddlesdown homes

  1. 01

    Bathroom lighting and zones

    Bathroom lights must suit their position. Fittings near the bath or shower need a higher IP rating to keep water out, and the circuit needs RCD protection. Mirror lights and shaver sockets must be the right type for bathrooms. We'll choose fittings that are safe for each zone.

  2. 02

    Under-cabinet and plinth lights

    Under-cabinet lights put light right onto the worktop, where ceiling lights cast shadows. Plinth lights along the base of kitchen units give a soft night light. Both can be wired to a separate switch or a sensor, so they're easy to use.

  3. 03

    Lower running costs with LED

    LED fittings use a fraction of the electricity of old halogen or filament bulbs and last many years. Replacing the lights you use most, such as the kitchen and living room, makes the biggest difference. We can advise where switching to LED will save the most.

Booking a lighting installation in Riddlesdown

Riddlesdown is an easy trip from our South Croydon base. We'll visit, look at the rooms and existing fittings, and talk about the look and the running costs you're aiming for before giving you a free quote.

We install and connect the new lighting, test each circuit and check any sensors or dimmers work properly. If any of the work is notifiable, such as a new circuit, we'll make sure the paperwork is in order.

Before we visit

  • List the rooms you'd like relit
  • Note any bulbs that blow often
  • Check the IP ratings of chosen fittings
  • Measure kitchen cabinet lengths
  • Keep receipts for fittings you've bought

Lighting installation in Riddlesdown: common questions

What lights can go in a bathroom in Riddlesdown?

Ceiling lights, downlights and mirror lights can all work, as long as each has the right IP rating for its distance from the bath or shower. Lights directly over the bath need the highest rating. We'll check your chosen fittings before installing them.

Can you add under-cabinet lighting to my kitchen in Riddlesdown?

Yes. We can fit LED strips or slim fittings under wall cupboards, with the cables hidden in the cabinets and a driver tucked out of sight. They can run from a separate switch or sensor, so they're easy to use when you're cooking.

Is it worth switching to LED lighting in Riddlesdown?

For most homes, yes. LEDs use much less electricity than older bulbs and rarely need replacing. Start with the rooms where lights are on longest. Some older fittings can take LED bulbs, while others are worth replacing with integrated LED fittings.

Do I need an electrician to fit bathroom lights in Riddlesdown?

It's strongly recommended. Bathroom lights must have the right IP rating, be wired with RCD protection, and some work near the bath or shower is notifiable under Part P. An electrician will fit them safely, test the circuit and give you a certificate for the work.
