FAQs
What types of lighting upgrades do Experience the Difference Electrical provide in Harrogate?
We deliver complete domestic and commercial lighting solutions, including LED conversions, recessed down-light installations, exterior and security lighting, feature and accent lighting for kitchens or retail premises, emergency and exit lighting, and fully integrated smart-control systems. Every project begins with a free on-site survey so we can design a package that improves illumination, cuts running costs and suits the style of your property.
How much can I save on my energy bills by switching to modern LED lighting?
LED lamps typically use 70–90 % less electricity than traditional incandescent or halogen bulbs. For an average Harrogate household this can translate into annual savings of £150–£300, while a medium-sized business can reduce lighting costs by 40–60 %. LEDs also last up to 50,000 hours, so maintenance and replacement expenses drop dramatically over the life-span of the installation.
Do I need to replace all my existing fittings, or can LEDs retrofit into my current fixtures?
In many cases we can fit LED lamps directly into your present fixtures, keeping disruption and cost to a minimum. Where the existing housing is incompatible or outdated, we’ll recommend purpose-built LED fittings that achieve better light output, aesthetics and efficiency. Our engineers will explain both options during your survey so you can decide which route offers the best value.
Will a lighting upgrade cause much disruption to my home or business?
We schedule work at times that suit you—outside trading hours for commercial clients and convenient slots for homeowners. Most domestic upgrades are completed in a single day, while small commercial premises usually take two to three days. Our NICEIC-approved electricians use dust sheets, tidy as they go, and remove all waste, ensuring your space is clean and operational when we leave.
Are your lighting installations compliant with UK regulations and eligible for grants or incentives?
Yes. All our work meets the latest BS 7671 wiring regulations and Part L building-efficiency requirements. We issue an Electrical Installation Certificate and register the work with your local building control where necessary. Because we use high-efficiency luminaires and controls, many projects qualify for the Enhanced Capital Allowance or local carbon-reduction grants—we’ll help you with the paperwork.
