LED lighting upgrades in Lynton
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. An LED upgrade in Lynton is also the cheapest moment to add presence or daylight sensors, because the electrician is already working on every fitting.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Lynton
Most Lynton businesses we survey still have a mix of T8 battens, 600×600 fluorescent panels and the odd halogen downlight. Replacing them with complete LED luminaires usually cuts lighting energy by a third to a half.
Where ceilings in Lynton offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Lynton is a smaller town, covered by postcode district EX35. We regularly work across Devon, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.

Lynton FAQs
Do you cover all of Lynton?
Yes. We work across Lynton and the EX35 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Ilfracombe, Wootton Courtenay and Barnstaple.
Who does the work in Lynton?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
Can you work out of hours in Lynton?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Lynton offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you just change the tubes?
We recommend replacing the whole luminaire. Retrofit LED tubes leave old ballasts and holders in place, which can fail and complicate future maintenance. A complete fitting is cleaner, more efficient and simpler to certify.
