LED lighting upgrades in Hayes

If your premises in Hayes need LED lighting upgrades, we can usually survey within days. Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K and certified on completion.

LED lighting upgrades in Hayes

Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Available across Hayes and Greater London. In Hayes 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.

Local LED lighting upgrades in Hayes

We quote Hayes 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.

Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Hayes now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.

Hayes sits within Greater London. We work throughout the BR2, BR4 and BR1 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Beckenham, Orpington and Chislehurst.

Rules that apply in Hayes

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.

Hayes FAQs

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 remove the old fittings in Hayes?

Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.

Do you cover all of Hayes?

Yes. We work across Hayes and the BR2, BR4 and BR1 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Beckenham, Orpington and Chislehurst.

Is it worth replacing fluorescent tubes with LED?

Usually, yes. Common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by GB ecodesign rules from September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended in February 2024, so replacements are getting harder to source. LED fittings typically use 30–60% less energy for the same light.
