What if I Need a Brand New Light Installed?

 

 

We love making spaces brighter! If you want a light where there isn’t one currently (like adding a stylish fixture over your dining table), there’s a bit more involved. Here’s why:

 

  • Finding the Power: We need to figure out the best place to safely connect your new light to the electrical system.

 

  • Running Wires: Often, this means running new wires, either hidden in the walls or ceiling, or neatly along surfaces.

 

  • The Best Approach: Sometimes we can access wiring from above (like in an attic), other times we might need to lift floorboards. It all depends on your home’s setup.

 

No Surprises: We’ll come take a look, explain your options clearly, and give you a fair price before starting any work.

Minimising Disruption: Looking for the least disruption to your beautiful ceilings and walls? We hear you! Technology offers some exciting solutions:

 
  • Quinetic Switches: These innovative switches generate their own power through movement, like the press of your hand. This eliminates the need for additional wiring to a wall switch, potentially minimising disruption. [The rest remains the same]

 

Benefits of Kinetic Switches:

 

  • Less Mess: Potentially fewer channels cut in walls or wires needing to run along surfaces.

 

  • Easy Installation: Since they don’t require traditional wiring, installation can be simpler.

 

  • Modern Look: The sleek design of kinetic switches can complement your modern space.

 

Disadvantages to Consider:

 

  • Limited Placement:
    Quinetic switches might not be suitable for every location, depending on how much space you have for the switch itself.

 

  • They are a bit more costly: While they create their own power, kinetic switches might be a bit more expensive upfront than traditional wired wall switches.
