LED lighting upgrades in Cricklewood
In short: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. For an LED upgrade in Cricklewood we start by counting fittings and running hours, because payback depends far more on how long lights are on than on the price of the fittings.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Cricklewood
In Cricklewood warehouses and workshops the biggest savings come from swapping metal halide high bays for LED, where a 400 W lamp plus gear can often be replaced by a fitting drawing 150 W or less.
We quote Cricklewood LED upgrades as a fixed price with a fitting schedule, so you can see exactly what is being replaced, where, and what it should save.
Our teams travel to Cricklewood from across Greater London. Typical nearby jobs include Kilburn, Golders Green and Willesden, so we can often combine survey visits.

Approved Document L (2021 edition, with 2023 amendments) asks for new general lighting to average at least 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt, or to use the LENI method. The 2026 edition raises this to more than 105 for work under it from 24 March 2027.
In Great Britain, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
Privately rented commercial property in England generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.
