LED lighting upgrades in Staffordshire
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 Staffordshire, including Stoke-on-Trent, Newcastle under Lyme and Burton upon Trent.
LED lighting upgrades work in Staffordshire
Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Staffordshire bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Staffordshire now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
What's included
- Like-for-like or re-planned layouts so light levels meet BS EN 12464-1
- Optional presence and daylight sensors to cut running hours further
- A walk-round survey counting fittings, wattages, running hours and ceiling types
- Complete LED luminaires rather than tube swaps, so old control gear is removed

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.

LED lighting upgrades FAQs for Staffordshire
What energy rules apply to new lighting in Staffordshire?
Approved Document L sets the efficiency that new lighting in Staffordshire must meet. We check fittings against it at design stage and keep the evidence for building control.
How are prices set in Staffordshire?
Our guide prices are adjusted for regional labour costs. After a survey you get a fixed price for the agreed scope.
What does an LED upgrade cost?
As a budget, LED panels run at about £50–£150 per fitting supplied and installed, battens £80–£200 and high bays £150–£400, excluding VAT. Access equipment, rewiring and controls are extra.
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.
