Why lighting in Wells is different

Wells is a small cathedral city — schools, surgeries, professional offices and a high concentration of period stone properties. Work here mixes domestic refurbs in BA5 villages (Wookey, Croscombe, Dinder) with commercial fit-out for surgeries and small offices.

Wells stock is a mix of cathedral-yard period buildings, 1930s-50s suburb housing in BA5 outskirts, and small commercial premises around the Market Place.

Wells has a lot of Grade II Listed and conservation-area stock. We handle the conservation officer side cleanly — chase-free routes, surface-fix where needed, full LBC documentation.

Common questions

Can you do a full lighting redesign in Wells — not just like-for-like?

Yes. Lighting design is one of the things we genuinely enjoy — circuits planned around how you actually use the room, dimming scenes that work day and night, fittings chosen to match the property and the brief. Wells is a mix of period properties and modern stock, so we'll often combine recessed LED, pendants, wall lights and feature lighting on a single redesign. Full design and quote at survey.

Will LED downlights compromise fire compartmentation in my ceiling?

Not if installed correctly. Where the ceiling is a separating floor (between flats) or otherwise fire-rated, every downlight has to be installed inside a fire-rated hood that maintains the ceiling's 30 or 60-minute rating. We use named-product hoods (Tenmat, Tlc) and document the install on the EIC.

Can you retrofit smart lighting without rewiring?

Often, yes. Lutron Caseta, Shelly modules, Hue and similar smart-dimming systems retrofit into existing wiring without a neutral at the switch (in many cases). We'll survey the existing setup, advise what'll work and what won't, and quote on commissioning + app setup as part of the install.
