# Light fitting and switch replacement in Ewell

> Light fitting and dimmer replacement in Ewell uses the cable already at the point. High Street finishes around the fitting stay untouched.

TMB Electrics, based in Banstead, replaces light fittings and dimmers in Ewell where the cable is already at the point. High Street finishes around the rose stay, and a Stoneleigh landing is a typical swap.


## Ewell light fitting price

Light fittings in Ewell are priced per point swapped, at a Stoneleigh landing or a High Street room, using the cable already there. The decorative fitting is included only when the quote names it.
- Lighting installation: from £50
- The shade or pendant is extra unless the quote already names that purchase.
- New cable to a place with no point is a different job.
- Ceiling decoration after a swap is outside this figure.

## What happens on the day

A fitting or a dimmer is swapped where cable already arrives. The High Street and Church Street keep the surrounding finish. A Stoneleigh landing or an Ewell Court bedroom is marked for the fitting you have chosen. If the old cable cannot carry the new lamp, that is said before the old rose comes down. Decorating the ceiling is not part of the swap.

### Use the cable present

The existing cable is tested for the new fitting. A heavier pendant or a bank of lamps that the cable cannot carry is not hung on it.

### Keep the finish

Church Street and High Street plaster and paint around the rose stay. We do not cut a new hole when a replacement will sit on the point already there.

### Dimmer and a test

A dimmer is matched to the lamps it will control, then the switch is tested. You keep the old fitting unless the quote says it leaves with us.

## Ewell fitting questions


### Can you hang a heavier pendant on the old cable?

Only if that cable and the fixing can carry it. If they cannot, we stop and describe what the point needs instead of hanging it anyway.

### Will the High Street ceiling be patched?

Not in this figure. The swap uses the point already there so the surrounding finish can stay. Patching paint is separate.

### Do you take the old fitting away?

Only when you ask. Otherwise it stays with you. The new fitting is the one named on the quote, and the old one is not thrown out.

### Are dimmers suitable for every lamp?

No. The dimmer has to match the lamps. A mismatch is swapped for a compatible module or left as a plain switch, and we say which before fitting.

### Can a new point be added in an Ewell Court bedroom?

That is a different job, with cable to a place that does not have one. This visit replaces or dims a point that is already there.
