Lighting installation in Basingstoke
JD Electricals fits lighting and downlights for homeowners and landlords around Basingstoke. James Dunn plans the fittings with you, isolates the circuit and tests every light he installs. You are left with working lights and the certificate for that work.
“Most of my work is domestic: consumer units, full and partial rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. I test and certify everything I fit, and anything else I find while I am there gets priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill. The electrician who quotes your job is the one who does it.”

Lighting installation in Basingstoke
- Lighting installation in Basingstoke is new lights and downlights, meaning recessed ceiling lights, fitted by JD Electricals from £65 per fitting.
- You want downlights or extra fittings added without rewiring the whole house.
- You need the fittings wired in, tested and certified rather than left in the box.
- You need another fitting on the existing lighting circuit and a working switch.
What is covered
Each quote lists the fittings, the rooms and whether the work stays on the existing lighting circuit.
Included
- Fitting of each light or downlight named on the written quote
- Isolation of the lighting circuit before work starts
- Connection and testing of every new fitting
- A certificate for the lighting work carried out
- Taking out the old fitting when it is being replaced
Not included
- Filling, painting or making good the ceiling after downlights
- The light fittings themselves unless they are named on the quote
- A new consumer unit, a kitchen rewire or a full house rewire
What happens on the day
James Dunn isolates the lighting circuit, fits the quoted lights and tests them before he writes the certificate.
- 01
Arrival and isolation
The rooms on the quote are checked, the lighting circuit is isolated and old fittings come out.
- 02
Fitting the new lights
Each quoted downlight or pendant is installed, connected and checked in its room.
- 03
Testing and the certificate
Every new fitting is tested and you are left with the certificate for that lighting work.
What lighting work costs
Lighting installation and downlights start at £65 per fitting. Extra fittings, a new lighting circuit or making good plaster sit outside that starting figure and are priced on the written quote.
- The £65 figure is a starting price per fitting, not a fixed total for the room.
- A new lighting circuit, extra switches or making good plaster is priced on its own line.
- A minor works certificate starts at £95 and is listed separately on the written quote.
What you get
You are left with the lights working, a written list of what was fitted and a certificate for that work.
- A defined fitting plan
- You have each room, fitting type and ceiling position written down before any hole is cut.
- A separate circuit question
- You know whether the new lights stay on the existing circuit or need a new circuit priced on its own line.
- Where our work stops on the plaster
- You can see the finished fittings and holes, with filling and painting left outside the lighting price.

Common questions
Cost per fitting, downlights, isolation, the certificate and kitchen lights are what people ask before a lighting booking.
How much does lighting installation cost?+
Lighting installation and downlights start at £65 per fitting. A new circuit, extra switches or making good plaster is priced on its own line. The written quote lists every fitting before work starts.
— James Dunn
Do you fit downlights?+
Yes. JD Electricals fits downlights and other lighting in homes around Basingstoke from £65 per fitting. A kitchen or lounge that needs a new lighting circuit is quoted as extra work.
— James Dunn
Will the lights be off while you work?+
The lighting circuit for the rooms on the quote is isolated while those fittings go in. Those lights come back on once testing is finished. Other work in the house is not part of a lighting booking.
Do I get a certificate for new lights?+
James Dunn tests and certifies everything he fits. A minor works certificate starts at £95. Anything found beyond the quoted fittings is priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill.
Is a kitchen rewire the same as new kitchen lights?+
No. New kitchen lights on an existing circuit start at £65 per fitting. A kitchen rewire starts at £1,600 and replaces the kitchen circuits, not just the lights. The quote states which of those jobs you are booking.
