FAQs
Why should I upgrade the lighting in my Cosby property?
Modern lighting upgrades can cut electricity consumption by up to 70 %, slash maintenance costs, improve light quality and colour rendering, and ensure compliance with the latest Building Regulations and Part L energy targets. Up-to-date LED fixtures run cooler, last 10–20 times longer than fluorescent or halogen lamps, and eliminate issues such as humming ballasts or flicker. Upgrading also boosts safety (cooler fittings reduce fire risk), enhances the look and value of your premises, and positions you for any forthcoming government efficiency mandates.
What kinds of energy-efficient fittings do you supply and install?
We install a full range of LED solutions: lamp-for-lamp LED retrofit tubes and lamps, purpose-built LED panels for suspended ceilings, linear trunking and high-bay/low-bay luminaires for warehouses, colour-tuneable downlights, IP-rated exterior floodlights, decorative pendants, and compliant emergency and exit signs. All products carry CE/UKCA marking, a minimum five-year manufacturer warranty, and meet BS EN 60598 and ENEC safety standards.
How disruptive will the upgrade be to my home or business?
Minimal. We begin with a survey to map circuits and agree an installation schedule. For commercial clients we often work outside trading hours or in isolated zones so you stay operational. Domestic upgrades in Cosby usually take one day for an average three-bed property; a medium office or retail unit takes two to three nights. We use dust sheets, remove redundant fittings under the WEEE scheme, and issue NICEIC certificates before vacating the site.
Will I really save money, and what is the typical payback period?
Yes. LEDs convert more than 90 % of input energy into light, while fluorescents convert only 30–40 %. That difference, coupled with a 50,000-hour service life, produces annual energy and re-lamp savings that generally pay for the project in 12–18 months for homes and 1–3 years for most commercial installations. We provide a free savings report that itemises current consumption, projected consumption, CO₂ reduction and simple payback so you can make an informed decision.
Do you handle grants, rebates and compliance paperwork?
Absolutely. We prepare documents for Salix or local authority funding, utility rebates, and Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) claims where eligible. On completion you receive an Electrical Installation Certificate or Minor Works Certificate to BS 7671, emergency-lighting test records, photometric data sheets, and Operation & Maintenance manuals—everything required for insurance or building-control sign-off.
Can smart controls or sensors be integrated with my new lights?
Yes. We design systems with PIR or microwave presence detection, daylight harvesting for perimeter zones, DALI or D4i drivers for addressable dimming, and wireless mesh protocols such as Zigbee or Bluetooth Low Energy. Schedules and energy dashboards are accessible via smartphone app or your existing BMS. Controls lower running costs a further 20–30 % and can be expanded later without rewiring.
