LED Lighting Upgrades

Replacing older lighting with LED lights can provide a more modern and efficient lighting solution.

LED lighting is available in a wide range of styles, sizes and colour temperatures, making it suitable for almost every room and application.

We can install LED lighting throughout your home or business, including:

  • LED downlights

  • LED strip lighting

  • Kitchen lighting

  • Bathroom lighting

  • Feature lighting

  • Outdoor LED lighting

  • Commercial LED lighting

If you're renovating or replacing older lights, we can help you select and install lighting that suits the space and your electrical requirements.

Downlight Installation

Downlights are a popular choice for modern homes and renovations because they provide clean, practical lighting without taking up much visual space.

We can install new downlights or replace existing fittings in areas such as:

  • Kitchens

  • Living rooms

  • Bedrooms

  • Hallways

  • Bathrooms

  • Offices

  • Retail spaces

  • Outdoor covered areas

We can also install dimmable lighting where compatible equipment is selected and the electrical installation allows for it.

Kitchen Lighting

The right kitchen lighting needs to be both practical and visually appealing.

We can install a combination of general, task and feature lighting to suit your kitchen layout.

Lighting options can include:

  • LED downlights

  • Under-cabinet lighting

  • LED strip lighting

  • Pendant lights

  • Feature lighting

  • Task lighting

If you're renovating your kitchen, it's worth planning the lighting and electrical requirements before cabinetry and finishes are installed.

Bathroom Lighting

Bathrooms require carefully considered electrical installations due to the presence of water and moisture.

We can install suitable bathroom lighting, including downlights, mirror lighting and other approved lighting solutions appropriate for the space.

If you're renovating a bathroom, we can coordinate the electrical work with your builder and other trades to ensure the lighting and other electrical requirements are installed at the appropriate stage.

Outdoor & Garden Lighting

Outdoor lighting can improve visibility, security and the usability of your outdoor spaces.

We install lighting for:

  • Gardens

  • Decks

  • Patios

  • Driveways

  • Pathways

  • Entrances

  • Pergolas

  • Outdoor entertaining areas

  • Garages and sheds

From simple sensor lights to feature garden lighting and LED strip lighting around a pergola, we can provide electrical installation for a range of outdoor lighting requirements.

LED Strip Lighting

LED strip lighting is a versatile option for adding both practical and feature lighting to your home or business.

It can be used underneath kitchen cabinets, around shelving, in entertainment areas, along architectural features or around outdoor entertaining spaces such as pergolas.

We can install the required electrical connections and power supplies and help ensure the finished installation is neat and practical.

Sensor & Security Lighting

Sensor lighting can provide convenient lighting when you need it while also improving visibility around your property.

Sensor lights can be installed around:

  • Driveways

  • Garages

  • Entrances

  • Side paths

  • Backyards

  • Commercial properties

We can install new sensor lights or replace existing fittings that are no longer working correctly.

Commercial Lighting Installation

Lighting is an important part of any commercial property, from offices and retail spaces to workshops and other business premises.

James Smith Electrical provides commercial lighting installation and upgrades throughout Auckland.

We can assist with:

  • LED lighting upgrades

  • Office lighting

  • Retail lighting

  • Workshop lighting

  • Emergency lighting

  • Sensor lighting

  • Outdoor lighting

  • Additional lighting circuits

  • Lighting alterations and repairs

We can work with business owners, builders, property managers and other contractors to complete electrical lighting work with minimal disruption.

Lighting for Renovations & New Builds

Renovations and new builds provide an opportunity to plan your lighting properly from the beginning.

Rather than simply replacing existing light fittings, you can consider how each room will be used and where lighting is actually needed.

We can work with you or your builder to install lighting and electrical connections for new kitchens, bathrooms, extensions, bedrooms, living areas, garages and outdoor spaces.

Planning early can also make it easier to incorporate feature lighting, LED strip lighting, smart lighting and additional switching.
