What's included

LED lighting upgrades FAQs for Hampshire
What energy rules apply to new lighting in Hampshire?
Approved Document L sets the efficiency that new lighting in Hampshire must meet. We check fittings against it at design stage and keep the evidence for building control.
How are prices set in Hampshire?
Our guide prices are adjusted for regional labour costs. After a survey you get a fixed price for the agreed scope.
Can the upgrade be claimed against tax?
Many businesses can claim capital allowances on lighting, for example through the Annual Investment Allowance. Lighting in a building is usually treated as an integral feature, so ask your accountant how it applies to you.
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.
