Good lighting changes how a home feels. It can make a small apartment feel bigger, a kitchen easier to work in and a backyard nice to sit in after dark.
We replace old halogen downlights with bright, energy-efficient LED downlights that run cooler, last longer and help reduce power bills.
From a row of pendant lights over a kitchen island to a statement light in a stairwell, we install feature lighting that suits your space and ceiling height.
We install garden lights, deck and step lights, and sensor lights with weatherproof fittings made to handle Bondi's salty sea air.
We set up dimmer switches, timers and smart lighting so you can control your lights from a wall switch, your phone or a simple scene button.
Many of Bondi’s red brick apartment blocks were built in the 1930s to 1960s. A lot of them have solid concrete ceilings, which makes it hard to cut in recessed downlights. In these units we often use slim surface-mounted LED lights, oyster lights, pendants or track lighting instead. You still get a bright, modern look without cutting into the slab.
If you live in a strata building, some changes may need approval from the strata committee first. We are happy to explain the work so you can share it with them.

It depends on the number of lights, the type of fittings and how easy it is to run new wiring in your home. Swapping existing downlights is usually quicker than adding lights in a new spot. Give us a call and we can give you a clear quote.
Usually recessed downlights are not the best choice for a concrete ceiling. We often suggest surface-mounted LED lights, pendants or track lighting instead. They look great and do not need any cutting into the slab.
Often it will not. Old dimmers were made for halogen globes and can cause LEDs to flicker or buzz. We fit LED-compatible dimmers so your lights dim smoothly.
Choose fittings with a high IP rating and a rust-resistant finish. These are made to handle rain, wind and salty air. We can recommend options that last well in Bondi.
Yes. In NSW, any work on fixed wiring, including installing new light fittings, must be done by a licensed electrician. This keeps your home safe and your insurance valid.
