LED lighting upgrades in Lichfield
What we do in Lichfield: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Lichfield now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Lichfield
Where ceilings in Lichfield offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Most Lichfield 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.
Lichfield sits within Staffordshire. We work throughout the WS13, WS14 and WS7 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Burntwood, Brownhills and Tamworth.

Lichfield FAQs
Who does the work in Lichfield?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
Do you remove the old fittings in Lichfield?
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 Lichfield?
Yes. We work across Lichfield and the WS13, WS14 and WS7 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Burntwood, Brownhills and Tamworth.
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.
