LED lighting upgrades in Shepherds Bush
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Shepherds Bush 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 Shepherds Bush bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Shepherds Bush now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Shepherds Bush is a major centre for offices, retail and industry, covered by postcode districts W12, W14 and W11. We regularly work across Greater London, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.

Shepherds Bush FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Shepherds Bush?
Most surveys in Shepherds Bush 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.
Do you remove the old fittings in Shepherds Bush?
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 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.
