💡 Another downlight installation completed by Sidmar Electrical! ⚡🔧
You know it's going to be one of those jobs when you turn up to install some downlights, only to discover the entire loft has been boarded out! 😅
With just a 50mm gap running alongside the central beam to work through, and a loft absolutely packed with boxes and belongings, getting the cables where they needed to go was certainly a challenge!
But that's all part of the fun! 💪
No job too big, no job too small, and no job too stressful! We just get stuck in and find a way to get it done.
🔎 And it's amazing what you find hidden away in a loft!
Unfortunately, we came across some existing electrical connections underneath the loft boarding that weren't quite up to the standard we'd expect to see.
It's something we come across far too often. Just because electrical connections are hidden away out of sight doesn't mean the quality of workmanship should be any different.
These connections weren't part of our original installation, but once discovered, we weren't going to leave them as they were.
We rectified the connections, installed them within a suitable junction box and made sure everything was safe and properly enclosed before replacing the boarding. ✅
Good workmanship matters just as much in the places you can't see as in the places you can! ⚡
And back to the downlights...
We've transformed these bedrooms from relying on existing wall lights to having lovely, evenly spaced ceiling downlights, giving the rooms a much brighter, cleaner and more modern look. 💡✨
✅ Worked around the fully boarded loft
✅ Overcame tricky cable routes and limited access
✅ Rectified existing electrical connections discovered along the way
✅ Neatly installed ceiling downlights
✅ Minimal disruption to existing decoration
✅ Everything left clean and tidy afterwards
Sometimes the simplest-looking jobs turn out to be the trickiest, but it's always satisfying seeing the finished result!
Another job completed with care, attention to detail and pride in our workmanship! 👏
