LED lighting upgrades in Oxfordshire
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 Oxfordshire, including Oxford, Banbury and Abingdon.
LED lighting upgrades work in Oxfordshire
We quote Oxfordshire 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.
Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Oxfordshire bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
What's included
- 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
- Optional presence and daylight sensors to cut running hours further

Rules that apply in Oxfordshire
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.

LED lighting upgrades FAQs for Oxfordshire
Which fire safety law applies in Oxfordshire?
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 sets the duties of the person responsible for fire safety, including emergency lighting where escape routes need it.
Which towns in Oxfordshire do you cover?
All of Oxfordshire, including Oxford, Banbury and Abingdon. 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.
Is it worth replacing fluorescent tubes with LED?
Usually, yes. Common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by GB ecodesign rules from September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended in February 2024, so replacements are getting harder to source. LED fittings typically use 30–60% less energy for the same light.
