LED lighting upgrades in Blackpool
In short: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. We quote Blackpool 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.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Blackpool
Where ceilings in Blackpool offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
For an LED upgrade in Blackpool 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.
For Blackpool premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.

Rules that apply in Blackpool
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.
Blackpool FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Blackpool?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Who does the work in Blackpool?
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.
Do you cover all of Blackpool?
Yes. We work across Blackpool and the FY1, FY3 and FY4 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Poulton-le-Fylde, Thornton-Cleveleys and Lytham St Annes.
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.
