Downlights create a clean, modern ceiling with no visible fittings hanging down. Our downlight installation service cuts precise ceiling holes, installs fire-rated housings to maintain your ceiling fire barrier, and wires each light to a dimmable LED driver for smooth, flicker-free operation. We offer warm white, cool white and colour-temperature-adjustable options for kitchens, bathrooms, hallways and living rooms. Every installation is neat, fully tested and certified.

How It Works

Our Process

01

Layout Planning

We plan the downlight positions for even light distribution, avoiding ceiling joists and aligning with room features.

02

Ceiling Preparation

We check for joists, pipes and cables, then cut clean holes with the correct diameter for your chosen fittings.

03

Installation & Wiring

Fire-rated housings are fitted, cables are connected through proper junction boxes and each light is tested before ceiling making-good.

04

Dimmer Setup & Demo

For dimmable lights, we install compatible dimmers, test for flicker-free operation and show you how to adjust brightness.

FAQ

Common Questions

Do downlights need fire hoods?

Yes. Any recessed light installed in a ceiling with rooms above must be fire-rated to restore the ceiling fire barrier. We only install compliant fittings.

Can I have downlights in my bathroom?

Yes. We install IP65-rated downlights suitable for bathroom zone 2, ensuring they are watertight and safe in humid conditions.

How many downlights do I need in a room?

As a guide, one downlight per 1.2 to 1.5 square metres provides good coverage. We calculate the exact number based on room size, ceiling height and light output.
