LED lighting upgrades in Merseyside
A commercial LED lighting upgrade replaces old fluorescent, halogen, metal halide or sodium fittings with complete LED luminaires, usually on the existing circuits. We cover Merseyside, including Liverpool, Birkenhead and St Helens.
LED lighting upgrades work in Merseyside
Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Merseyside bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
We quote Merseyside 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.
What's included
- Like-for-like or re-planned layouts so light levels meet BS EN 12464-1
- A walk-round survey counting fittings, wattages, running hours and ceiling types
- Complete LED luminaires rather than tube swaps, so old control gear is removed
- Safe removal and recycling of old fluorescent tubes as hazardous waste

Rules that apply in Merseyside
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.

LED lighting upgrades FAQs for Merseyside
What energy rules apply to new lighting in Merseyside?
Approved Document L sets the efficiency that new lighting in Merseyside must meet. We check fittings against it at design stage and keep the evidence for building control.
How are prices set in Merseyside?
Our guide prices are adjusted for regional labour costs. After a survey you get a fixed price for the agreed scope.
How long does an office LED upgrade take?
A typical 400 m² office with around 40 fittings is often a one- or two-day job. Larger sites are phased zone by zone, and we can work evenings or weekends.
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.
