LED lighting upgrades in Greenford
What we do in Greenford: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Greenford now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Greenford
Most Greenford 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.
For an LED upgrade in Greenford 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.
Greenford is a busy commercial centre, covered by postcode districts UB6, UB1 and UB5. We regularly work across Greater London, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.

Greenford FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Greenford?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
Do you cover all of Greenford?
Yes. We work across Greenford and the UB6, UB1 and UB5 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Northolt, Southall and West Ealing.
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.
