LED lighting upgrades in Tooting
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Available across Tooting and Greater London. Where ceilings in Tooting offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Tooting
In Tooting 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.
For an LED upgrade in Tooting 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.
We cover the whole of Tooting, including the SW17, CR4 and SW12 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Furzedown, Streatham and Mitcham.

Rules that apply in Tooting
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.
