Working in Seaford

In Seaford we cover BN25; we also cover Peacehaven, 5 miles away, and Rottingdean.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Seaford: free survey, written quote, one team. We survey Seaford bathrooms before quoting lighting, so the zones are measured from your actual bath and shower. Bathroom lighting in Seaford is wired to BS 7671 with RCD protection, tested, and certified when it is finished.

Supplies across most of East Sussex are hard. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Fire-rated downlights or fire hoods where the ceiling has to keep its fire resistance
IP-rated fittings chosen for each zone, with IP65 downlights over the bath or shower
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

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.

Integrated or replaceable LED

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

Rules that apply in England

In England, Part P makes a new circuit, a consumer unit replacement and any addition or alteration to circuits in a room with a bath or shower notifiable. The work must be done by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control. Replacing a light fitting like for like is not usually notifiable, but it still has to meet BS 7671.

Can I have an illuminated mirror in a bathroom?

Yes. Illuminated mirrors made for bathrooms carry an IP rating for the zone they sit in and connect to an RCD-protected supply, usually switched with the room lights or by a sensor on the mirror. The cable position is set before tiling so the connection is hidden behind the glass.
