Hanging light installation

Takes about 1 hr

Pendant lights over a dining table or kitchen counter look right only at the right height. The electrician agrees the drop with you, fixes the canopy to the ceiling, shortens the cord or chain to that length, connects the light and checks it hangs straight.

The job starts from the price shown on this page, which covers one hanging light on an existing point. A cluster of pendants, a heavy glass light, moving the point or extra wire is quoted before work starts. Very heavy fittings with many arms fall under chandelier installation. The light is bought by you.

Decide the hanging height before the visit, usually measured from the table top, and keep the light unpacked with all its parts.

Questions about this service

How low should a pendant hang over a table?

Many people like it roughly 75 to 90 cm above the table top. The electrician can hold it in place so you see it first.

My point is not above the table. Can you move it?

It is possible with a swag hook or new wire. The electrician quotes the extra work first.

Are spare parts included in the price?

No. If a part or material is needed, the electrician quotes it and fits it only after you agree.

What if the problem comes back?

If the work done stops working within 30 days, we come back and fix it at no charge.
