Back to top1) Why invest in new lighting?
Modern lighting does much more than brighten a room, from statement pendant lights to stylish wall lights and energy efficient LED fittings. The right fittings can create a warm, welcoming atmosphere, highlight key features of your home and improve everyday use.
We recently completed a lighting installation at a four bedroom detached house on Sitwell Street in Derby. The customer had just finished renovating their kitchen and wanted the hallway and dining room lighting to match the new modern style.
Fortunately, it proved to be a straightforward project, as the existing light fixtures could simply be replaced for the new fittings due to being the same size. This reduced installation time while still giving the customer the fresh, flowing look they were hoping for. Once everything was fitted and tested, the new lighting complimented the newly renovated kitchen perfectly.
Back to top2) Choosing the right lighting for your home
Every home is so different and selecting the correct fittings can make a significant difference to both appearance and practicality. A professional lighting installation gives you the opportunity to improve brightness, enhance feature areas and create different moods throughout your property.
Whether you are updating the one room or replacing several in your home in Derby, we can advise on suitable lighting options that work with your décor, budget and lifestyle.
Back to top3) What to expect during a light fitting installation
Installing new light fittings is often quicker than many homeowners expect, especially when you’re replacing existing light fittings with similar models. Before any work begins, we’ll safely isolate the electrical supply and check that the existing wiring is suitable for the new fitting. If everything is fine, we can usually remove the old light, make the necessary connections and fit the new one with minimal disruption.
If you’ve chosen heavier pendant lights, chandeliers or decorative feature lighting, we may need to strengthen the mounting point to ensure the fitting is safely supported.
Back to top4) Why choose a professional electrician instead of doing it yourself?
While replacing a light fitting can sometimes be a straightforward job, more often than not, there is extra work required. Incorrect wiring can lead to nuisance tripping, damaged fittings and in more serious cases, electric shocks or fire hazards.
