Old halogens run hot and chew power. We remove the halogen fitting and install a plug base with your new integrated LED downlight. Because quality LEDs don’t use “globes”, the plug base makes future like-for-like swaps simple - unplug, replace, done.

Why our approach is better

• Safety & compliance: IC-4-rated options where suitable; correct drivers; tidy terminations.
• Flicker-free dimming: We match drivers and dimmers to prevent buzz, flicker, and dead zones.

Colour & beam: 2700–3000K for cosy, 4000K neutral for kitchens/laundry; beam angles sized for your ceiling height and room.

One light in the middle makes harsh shadows and bright “hot spots.” A small grid of downlights spreads light evenly, so the room feels bigger, calmer, and easier on the eyes.

How we set it up (plain English):

• Even coverage: We place lights so benches, sofas and corners are lit properly - no dark patches, no airport-runway look.
• Zones you can control: We put areas like dining, living and kitchen benches on their own switches/dimmers. Bright for cooking, softer for dinner, cosy for movie night.
• Less glare: We choose fittings and aim them so they don’t bounce off the TV, glossy bench tops or artwork.

That’s it: better light, better mood, and simple controls that fit how you use the room.

Done right, strip lighting is the secret sauce - clean, functional, and beautiful.

Where & why

• Under-cabinet: Shadow-free prep areas; splashback highlights.
• Island & kickers: Floating effect and subtle night light.
• Pelmets & coves: Soft, indirect glow for living rooms and hallways.
• Bathrooms & mirrors: Clear lighting with appropriate IP ratings.
• Walk-in robes (WIR): Even illumination along shelves and hanging rails so colours look true and outfits are easy to see.

How we do strips properly

• Aluminium profiles with diffusers (longer life, no “dotty” look)
• Right drivers & wiring (correct wattage/voltage for full brightness and reliability)
• High-CRI strips to keep fabrics, timber, food, and skin tones looking natural
• Optional smart control for schedules and scenes

Track lighting is brilliant when layouts change or you want to highlight art, joinery, or a kitchen bench.

Benefits

• Adjustable heads to aim light where you need it
• Reconfigurable - add, move, or remove heads without new holes
• Perfect for art walls and long galley kitchens
• Great for rentals/renos where flexibility matters

Technical choices

• Single-circuit vs three-circuit tracks (one scene vs multiple circuits on one rail)
• Beam angles & glare control for task vs accent lighting
• Dimming & colour temp to match the rest of your home

LED sensor floods and dusk-to-dawn fittings improve safety and energy use.

Options

• PIR (motion/heat) or microwave sensors (useful around corners/through some materials)
• Adjustable heads to aim light precisely
• Manual override for gatherings
• Colour temperature eg. for clear CCTV images

Create depth and safety outside with low-voltage LED systems.

Design approach

• Layered lighting: Path lights for wayfinding; spike or in-ground uplights for trees; wall washers for façades; step lights for stairs.
• Low-voltage, IP-rated gear: Safer around pets/kids; weather-ready fittings and connections.
• Transformers & cabling: Sized properly for run length and load so everything stays bright and even.
• Control: Dusk sensors and timers, motion where useful (side gates, bins), or app control for scenes like “Entertaining” or “Lock-up”.

Corridors, stairwells, lobbies, car parks - lighting must be reliable and efficient.

What we install

• Bulkheads, battens, and downlights chosen for durability (vandal-resistant options available)
• Microwave/PIR sensors and dusk sensors to cut bills without leaving areas dark
• Emergency & exit integration where required, with proper labelling and handover
• Smart scheduling for lobby highlights and signage illumination

We’ll recommend fittings with the right ingress protection and robust controls so managers get fewer callouts and better energy performance.

The right pendant provides task light and a design lift.

We help with

• Heights & spacing: Typically 650–800 mm above benchtops; bedside pendants set for clear sightlines
• Canopies & reinforcement

Dimming & bulb choice (high-CRI LEDs so meals and materials look their best)

Keep your existing switches and fittings, add smart control.

Why people love this

• Looks the same on the wall - smarts hide behind the plate
• App control, timers, scenes, remote access
• Voice-ready with popular ecosystems
• Neutral-wire solutions: We’ll check whether a neutral is present and design accordingly

What to expect (our process)

1. Advice & design – We discuss how you use each space, then map layouts, colour temps, dimming, and controls.
2. Clear quote – Transparent line items
3. Licensed installation – Neat holes, tidy wiring, correct drivers/dimmers/sensors.
4. Test & handover – We test, label, and show you how everything works; you receive the required compliance documentation.
5. Aftercare – Thanks to plug bases, modular tracks, and smart controls, upgrades are easy.
