Working in Strabane

As well as Strabane itself (BT81 and BT82), we survey in Omagh, Cookstown and Dungannon.

Strabane gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you are refitting a windowless bathroom in Strabane, the lighting is planned with the extractor fan so the two work together. Bathroom lighting in Strabane is wired to BS 7671 with RCD protection, tested, and certified when it is finished.

Supplies across most of County Tyrone 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

Testing and an electrical certificate for the work on completion
Cable runs to each fitting, from the loft above or through the ceiling
RCD protection on the lighting circuit, checked at the consumer unit and added where it is missing
A shaver supply unit where wanted, positioned away from direct spray

Decisions to make first

Integrated or replaceable LED

Integrated LED downlights are slimmer and fully sealed. Fittings with replaceable lamps let you change brightness or colour later.

Mirror lighting

An illuminated mirror or mirror cabinet lights the face from the front, which a ceiling light cannot do. Many include a demister pad and a shaver socket.

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.

Do I need an electrician to change a bathroom light?

Swapping a fitting like for like is not usually notifiable, but it still has to meet the zone and IP rules. Anything new, such as an extra light, a moved switch or a new circuit, is notifiable in England and Wales and should be done by a registered electrician. Given the water risk, an electrician is the sensible choice for any bathroom lighting.
