Working in Guiseley

As well as Guiseley itself (LS19 and LS20), we survey in Yeadon, Baildon and Shipley.

Guiseley gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Guiseley bathroom has one central light, adding downlights and a mirror light is usually the change you notice most. We survey Guiseley bathrooms before quoting lighting, so the zones are measured from your actual bath and shower.

Most of West Yorkshire is supplied with soft water. 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
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

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.

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.

What colour light is best for a bathroom?

A neutral or cool white, around 4000 K, gives clear light at the mirror for shaving and make-up. Warm white, around 3000 K, feels more relaxing for the room as a whole. Some illuminated mirrors let you switch between the two.
