Local LED lighting upgrades in Llanddew
Most Llanddew 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.
An LED upgrade in Llanddew is also the cheapest moment to add presence or daylight sensors, because the electrician is already working on every fitting.
Llanddew is a local centre, covered by postcode district LD3. We regularly work across Powys, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.

Llanddew FAQs
Do you cover all of Llanddew?
Yes. We work across Llanddew and the LD3 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Llangattock, Duhonw and Llangamarch.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Llanddew?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, the Welsh Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Can you work out of hours in Llanddew?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Llanddew offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
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.
