Power points and lighting.
Most houses were wired for how people lived decades ago: one power point per room and a single light in the middle of the ceiling. Kayden adds and moves power points, installs LED downlights and feature lighting, puts in outdoor and security lights, and wires switches so the room works the way you use it.
In short
Power point and lighting work covers adding or moving power points, swapping old halogens for LED downlights, and installing outdoor, security and feature lighting. We do it for homes and sheds across Dungog, Gresford and the Hunter.

Lighting is the job where good advice saves money. The right colour temperature, the right number of downlights, and dimming where it's wanted make more difference than spending more on fittings.

- New and relocated power points, including USB and weatherproof outdoor outlets
- LED downlights, battens and pendants, with dimming where you want it
- Outdoor, sensor and security lighting
- Ceiling fans with light and remote
- Replacing old halogen downlights that run hot
- Two-way and multi-way switching so you're not walking back across the room
When you need it
- Power boards and double adaptors everywhere
- Halogen downlights that blow globes and heat the ceiling
- Dark kitchens, dark sheds, dark driveways
- A renovation that's changed where the furniture goes

- Whether you've already chosen fittings or want recommendations
Questions about power points and lighting
Can you replace halogen downlights with LEDs?
Yes. LED downlights use a fraction of the power, run far cooler, and remove the heat risk old halogens pose near ceiling insulation. Kayden checks the clearance to insulation while he's up there.
Can I add power points to an existing room?
Yes. A new point usually runs from an existing circuit if it has capacity, or from a new circuit at the board if it doesn't. Every new point gets safety switch protection.
What colour light should I choose?
Warm white suits bedrooms and living areas. Neutral or cool white suits kitchens, laundries, workshops and sheds where you need to see detail. Kayden can suggest fittings room by room.
