We swap the fitting onto the existing cables and test it. TMB Electrics, based in Banstead, replaces a light or a switch in Tadworth using the cables already there, including listed cottages in Walton on the Hill where the cable stays planned around the building. ## Tadworth light fitting price Walton on the Hill and Shelvers Way are priced for taking the old fitting or switch off, landing the cables already there into the new one, and testing that circuit. Walton Street is included. A fresh cable run back to the board, filling and painting, and a decorative fitting that is not already on the written price, are extra. - Lighting installation: from £50 - Pulling a fresh cable back to the board is a different booking. - Filling and painting the old hole are left for decorating. - A decorative fitting is connected only when you already have it, or it is named on the written price. ## Light fitting and switch replacement across Tadworth We serve Tadworth from our base in Banstead. - The Avenue - Shelvers Way - Merland Rise - Preston Lane - Dorking Road - Walton on the Hill - Walton Street - Tadworth station ## What happens on the day A Walton on the Hill cottage keeps the cables already in the ceiling or the box, planned around the building rather than opened up. That lighting circuit is switched off, the old fitting or switch is taken down, and the pendant, ceiling light, dimmer or plate is joined on, with live, neutral and earth in the new terminals. Shelvers Way semis are the same swap. The light is tried before power is left on. ### Isolate that circuit Walton on the Hill, Walton Street and Shelvers Way have that lighting circuit switched off before a fitting or switch is touched. A fresh cable run back to the board is not pulled. ### Join the cables already there The pendant, ceiling light, dimmer or plate takes the cables already sitting in the ceiling or the box. Live, neutral and earth go into the new terminals. A decorative fitting is not bought unless it is already on the written price. ### Test, then restore That light is tried, then power is put back. Filling and painting an old hole are left. A lighting way of its own is a different booking in Walton on the Hill. ## Tadworth light fitting questions ### Can you change a light in a Walton on the Hill cottage? Yes. A Walton on the Hill cottage and a Shelvers Way semi can have a light or a dimmer changed onto the cables already in place. That circuit is tried afterwards, and the cable stays planned around the building. ### Do you pull a new cable back to the board? No. Nothing new is pulled back to the board. What is already at that fitting is what gets joined. A separate lighting circuit is quoted on its own in Walton on the Hill. ### Who buys a decorative fitting? The fitting is yours to buy, unless the written price already names that purchase. We join the fitting you have. A shade for a Walton Street room is your choice, not ours. ### Will you fill the old hole? No. Filling and painting the old hole are outside the electrical swap. The test covers the light or the switch, not the ceiling finish. ### Are live, neutral and earth reconnected? Yes. They are landed in the new terminals after the old fitting or switch is off. That is checked before the circuit is tested in Walton on the Hill or on Shelvers Way. ## Other services in Tadworth - [Electrician in Tadworth](https://www.tmbelectrics.co.uk/electrician-tadworth): Tadworth electrician for new circuits, outbuildings and domestic work, scoped around actual equipment and existing supply. - [Light fitting and switch replacement (all areas)](https://www.tmbelectrics.co.uk/services/light-fitting-dimmer-switch-replacement): TMB Electrics replaces light fittings, dimmers and switches from £50.
