LED downlight installation in Bolton for kitchens, bathrooms, hallways and living rooms. ANR Electrics fits low energy downlights that sit flush with the ceiling and give a clean, bright light.
Good downlighting is about spacing. Too few lights leaves dark patches, and too many can feel like an office. We look at the room size, ceiling height and where you need the most light, such as over worktops. Then we mark out a layout before cutting any holes.
More Information
Cutting holes in a ceiling can weaken its fire resistance. Fire rated downlights help keep that barrier in place, which matters where there is a room above. In bathrooms, lights near the bath or shower need a suitable IP rating to keep water out. We fit the right type.
LED downlights come in different colour temperatures. Warm white gives a soft, cosy light that suits living rooms and bedrooms. Cool white is brighter and crisper, which works well in kitchens and bathrooms. Some fittings let you switch between the two, so you can change your mind later.
STILL NOT SURE?
It depends on the size of the room, but a rough guide is one downlight for every one to one and a half square metres. A typical kitchen may need somewhere between six and twelve. The beam angle and brightness of the fitting also make a difference.
Yes. Most LED downlights fit into an existing plasterboard ceiling. We cut neat holes, run cable in the ceiling void and connect them to your lighting circuit. Access from a loft or the floor above makes it quicker. Without access, the job can still be done but takes longer.
Yes, as long as both the downlights and the dimmer switch are made to work with LEDs. An old dimmer designed for halogen bulbs can cause flickering or buzzing. Our LED downlight installation includes a matching LED dimmer, so the lights fade smoothly from bright to low.
ANR Electrics is a fully qualified electrician offering LED downlight installation across Bolton and nearby Harwood and Bradley Fold. Downlights are a popular lighting upgrade because they look neat and cost less to run than old spotlights. We plan the layout with you, fit dimmable options if you want them and test the circuit when we finish.
