New Light Installations

For homes without existing downlights, we map lighting layouts, safely cut ceiling cavities, and install LED fixtures with compliant wiring and fire-safe clearances. Ideal for builds, renovations, or layout upgrades.

Halogen to LED Upgrades

Still using old halogens? We replace them with energy-efficient LEDs that run cooler, last longer, and cost less to run. We’ll check your wiring and fit modern dimmable options where compatible.

Ceiling & Cavity Assessments

Every ceiling is different. We assess cavity space, insulation, and ventilation to choose the right lighting and protect against fire hazards or poor airflow that can damage your setup.

Switches, Dimmers & Zones

Want dimmable lights or separate control for each room? We can install smart switches, zone controls, and compatible dimmers so your lighting suits your space and lifestyle.

Why Recessed Lighting Matters

Installing recessed lighting isn’t just about looks—it’s about creating comfortable, efficient, and practical spaces. Whether it’s a new build or retrofit, here’s why Melbourne homes are switching to modern LED downlights:

Clean, Modern Finish

Recessed lights sit flush to the ceiling, giving your space a streamlined look without bulky fittings. Perfect for living rooms, kitchens, hallways, and even alfresco areas.

Energy Efficiency Benefits

We design and implement lighting systems tailored to your specific needs and aesthetics, ensuring every project is as unique as your space.aLED downlights use up to 80% less energy than halogens. Electcomm Group Electrical & Data installs high-efficiency lighting that cuts running costs without compromising brightness or style.

Zoned Lighting Control

Want different lighting moods in different rooms? We can wire separate zones, smart dimmers or timer functions so you get control over how each area is lit.

Safe and Compliant

Poorly installed lights can pose fire risks or overload circuits. Our licensed Melbourne electricians handle every install to current safety standards with full compliance certificates provided.

Process

Our Recessed Light Install Process

Installing downlights isn’t a one-size-fits-all job. At Electcomm Group Electrical & Data, we follow a safe and efficient process to ensure every recessed light fits cleanly, lights evenly, and complies with Melbourne’s electrical standards. Here’s how we handle it from start to finish:

Site Assessment

We inspect your ceiling type, existing wiring, and lighting layout. This helps us choose the right fittings, avoid insulation issues, and plan for even light distribution.

Wiring Setup

We run new cables or connect to existing ones depending on your layout. Every connection is rated for load and safety, reducing fire risk or overload.

Light Installation

We cut ceiling holes cleanly, mount the fittings securely, and check all angles and spacing to give you the perfect balance of brightness and coverage.

Testing and Certification

Once installed, we test every light, check switch functionality, and provide a certificate of electrical safety so you know it’s done properly.

Types of Recessed Lights We Install

Different homes need different lighting. Whether you’re renovating, updating or building from scratch, our recessed light installation Melbourne services suit your space, layout, and lighting goals. Here’s what we offer:
