Light Planned Around the Space, Not the Ceiling Grid
Good lighting is planned, not sprinkled. A row of downlights will light a floor, but it rarely flatters a room. A considered scheme combines general light with task lighting where work is done and accent lighting that picks out features, so a space can change character from morning to evening.
Simply Electrical Contractors plans lighting for kitchens, living spaces, bathrooms, offices and shops, and for gardens, driveways, façades and entrances outside. Positions, beam angles, colour temperature and switching are agreed on a layout before any cable is run, and fittings are chosen with the right protection rating for where they will be installed.
Outside, lighting has to balance appearance, safety and security without spilling into neighbouring windows. Circuits are zoned and controlled by switches, timers or sensors as required, then tested and certified on completion.

Common questions
Useful Information Before You Enquire
For advice about a specific property, contact the team with the postcode and job details.
01When should lighting be planned in a renovation?
As early as possible, ideally before plastering. Cable routes and fitting positions are far easier to get right at first fix.
02Do outdoor lights need special fittings?
Yes. Exterior fittings and connections need a suitable IP rating for their position, and outdoor circuits need appropriate protection.
03Can you work from an architect's or designer's plan?
Yes. An existing lighting plan can be installed as drawn, with practical points raised before work starts.
04How do I avoid annoying the neighbours with security lights?
By choosing sensible brightness, aiming fittings downward and using sensors and timers so lights are on only when needed.
