LED lighting upgrades in Richmond
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. An LED upgrade in Richmond 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 Richmond
Most Richmond 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.
Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Richmond bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Richmond sits within Greater London. We work throughout the TW9, TW10 and TW1 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Isleworth, Hounslow and Barnes.

Richmond FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Richmond?
Most surveys in Richmond can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
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.
Who does the work in Richmond?
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.
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.
