Working in Bradford
We work right across Bradford — BD1, BD3 and BD5 — and in neighbouring Pudsey and Cleckheaton.
Bradford is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. Landlords in Bradford get an electrical certificate for new bathroom lighting, which belongs with the property's safety records. Bathroom lighting in Bradford is wired to BS 7671 with RCD protection, tested, and certified when it is finished.
Water across much of West Yorkshire is 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
- Cable runs to each fitting, from the loft above or through the ceiling
- Fire-rated downlights or fire hoods where the ceiling has to keep its fire resistance
- Testing and an electrical certificate for the work on completion
- A shaver supply unit where wanted, positioned away from direct spray
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
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.
