Working in Banbridge

We work right across Banbridge — BT25, BT31 and BT32 — and in neighbouring Craigavon and Portadown.

Banbridge gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Bathroom lighting in Banbridge is wired to BS 7671 with RCD protection, tested, and certified when it is finished. We survey Banbridge bathrooms before quoting lighting, so the zones are measured from your actual bath and shower.

Supplies across most of County Down are soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

RCD protection on the lighting circuit, checked at the consumer unit and added where it is missing
Testing and an electrical certificate for the work on completion
A ceiling pull-cord or a switch outside the room, with separate switching for mirror and feature lights
Cable runs to each fitting, from the loft above or through the ceiling

Decisions to make first

Downlight positions

Evenly spaced downlights give flat, general light. Placing one over the shower and one over the basin puts the light where you actually use it.

Colour temperature

Warm white, around 3000 K, feels softer; cool white, around 4000 K, is crisper for shaving and make-up. Mixing the two in one room looks uneven.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland has no Part P. Lighting work should follow BS 7671 as good practice, with the circuit tested and a certificate issued.

Where should the light switch go in a bathroom?

Usually outside the door, or inside as a ceiling pull-cord. Ordinary wall switches are kept out of the bathroom zones, and a pull-cord keeps the switch itself out of reach of wet hands.
