In most cases, changing a light fitting is not illegal, provided it is done safely and competently. Homeowners are allowed to replace light fixtures themselves under British law. However, if the installation is in a special location such as a bathroom or kitchen, or if the work involves altering fixed wiring, then it must comply with Part P of the Building Regulations. In such cases, it is strongly advised — and often legally required — that a certified electrician such as one from NICEIC ELECTRICIANS carries out the work.
Attempting electrical tasks without proper knowledge can lead to fire hazards, electric shock, or insurance invalidation. That's why for total peace of mind, it's always best to use a qualified NICEIC-registered electrician.

Our Process-How NICEIC ELECTRICIANS Carry Out Light Fitting Replacements
Our team follows a detailed, safety-first approach to ensure your new light fitting works perfectly and is safe for daily use:
-
Initial Inspection – We check the existing wiring, the fitting’s compatibility, and any load requirements.
-
Power Isolation – Electricity is turned off at the consumer unit, and we double-check with voltage testers to ensure safety.
-
Safe Removal – The existing fitting is carefully removed without damaging the ceiling, wiring, or plasterwork.
-
Professional Installation – The new fixture is fitted, connections made securely, and all screws and fixings are tightened.
-
Testing & Certification – Functionality is tested, and if applicable, we provide Part P certification for works in regulated areas.
