Local LED lighting upgrades in Banbury
For an LED upgrade in Banbury 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.
Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Banbury now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Banbury sits within Oxfordshire. We work throughout the OX16, OX17 and OX15 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Middleton Cheney, Tadmarton and Brackley.

Banbury FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Banbury?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Do you cover all of Banbury?
Yes. We work across Banbury and the OX16, OX17 and OX15 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Middleton Cheney, Tadmarton and Brackley.
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.
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.
