Local LED lighting upgrades in Allerton
Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Allerton now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
In Allerton 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.
We cover the whole of Allerton, including the L19, L18 and L25 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Hunts Cross, Belle Vale and Garston.

Rules that apply in Allerton
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.
Allerton FAQs
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.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Allerton?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Do you remove the old fittings in Allerton?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
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.
