LED lighting upgrades in Nottinghamshire
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 Nottinghamshire, including Nottingham, Mansfield and Worksop.
LED lighting upgrades work in Nottinghamshire
Most Nottinghamshire businesses we survey still have a mix of T8 battens, 600×600 fluorescent panels and the odd halogen downlight. Replacing them with complete LED luminaires usually cuts lighting energy by a third to a half.
Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Nottinghamshire now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
What's included
- Testing and a BS 7671 certificate for the work, with a schedule of what was fitted
- Complete LED luminaires rather than tube swaps, so old control gear is removed
- A walk-round survey counting fittings, wattages, running hours and ceiling types
- Safe removal and recycling of old fluorescent tubes as hazardous waste

LED lighting upgrades FAQs for Nottinghamshire
How are prices set in Nottinghamshire?
Our guide prices are adjusted for regional labour costs. After a survey you get a fixed price for the agreed scope.
Which towns in Nottinghamshire do you cover?
All of Nottinghamshire, including Nottingham, Mansfield and Worksop. See the towns list on this page for local pages.
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.
