Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How many LED downlights do I need per room?
As a general guide, aim for one downlight per 1.2 to 1.5 square metres of floor area for general room lighting. A typical Auckland living room of 20 square metres would use 12 to 16 downlights depending on ceiling height and the level of brightness you prefer. We will recommend the optimal number and layout for each room when we quote your job.
Can I install dimmer switches with LED downlights?
Yes, and we strongly recommend it. Dimmer switches give you far more flexibility in how you use each room and create a much more comfortable atmosphere. It is important to use LED-compatible dimmers and to confirm the LED fittings you choose are dimmable. We will specify the right combination when we quote your job.
How much does LED downlight installation cost in Auckland?
The cost depends on the number of lights, whether new circuits are required, ceiling type and access. As a guide, LED downlight installation in an existing home typically ranges from $80 to $150 per light installed depending on complexity. We provide a free written quote for every job so you know exactly what you will pay before we start.
Can you replace old halogen downlights with LED?
Yes. Replacing halogen downlights with LED is one of our most popular services. In most cases we can install LED retrofit globes directly into your existing fittings, or swap the whole fitting for a modern LED unit. LED replacements use around 80 percent less power and last up to 25 times longer than halogen, so the payback period is typically one to two years.
Do you install outdoor and garden lighting?
Yes. Outdoor lighting improves the look, safety and security of your Auckland home. We install weatherproof downlights for outdoor entertainment areas, garden path and step lighting, sensor and security lights, driveway lighting and decorative feature lighting. All outdoor installations use IP-rated weatherproof fittings suitable for the New Zealand climate.
