“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.”

WhatsAppHow 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.
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.
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.
