Why Choose OR Electrics?
Electricity isn't something to take a gamble on. Whether you are upgrading an older Victorian property or need a modern certificate for a rental, we handle this service with strict adherence to BS 7671 regulations. We treat your home as if it were our own, ensuring safety without the jargon.
If your electricity bills are creeping up or your rooms feel a bit dim, it might be time to look at your lighting. At OR Electrics, I've swapped out countless old halogen bulbs and outdated fittings for modern LED solutions across Leeds. It is not just about saving money—though you will see a massive difference there—it is about safety and creating the right atmosphere. Old halogen downlights run incredibly hot, which can be a genuine fire risk in the timber ceilings of older Victorian properties. I provide full LED upgrades that brighten up your home, reduce your carbon footprint, and eliminate that fire worry. Whether you want to replace old spotlights or install feature lighting in a kitchen extension, I treat your home with respect, always using boot covers and dust sheets to leave the place as tidy as I found it.

In Leeds, where our housing stock ranges from modern new builds to historic Victorian stone terraces and back-to-backs, electrical safety is paramount. Many of these older properties still contain outdated rubber or lead-sheathed cabling that simply can't cope with modern power demands. When you choose OR Electrics for this service, you aren't just getting a quick fix; you are getting a comprehensive solution designed to protect your property and your family from the risks of electrical faults.
We pride ourselves on offering a down-to-earth service that cuts out the confusion. We don't believe in 'cowboy' shortcuts. Every job we undertake is carried out to the latest 18th Edition wiring regulations, ensuring full compliance and peace of mind. From improving energy efficiency with modern solutions to ensuring your damp-proofing doesn't compromise your intake, we handle the unique challenges of West Yorkshire homes with expertise and care.
Will my old dimmer switches work with new LEDs?
Usually, no. Old dimmers are designed for higher loads. When we install LEDs, I'll swap your switch for a trailing-edge LED dimmer to prevent flickering and buzzing.
Can I choose between warm and cool light?
Absolutely. For living rooms in Leeds terraces, I usually recommend 'Warm White' (3000K) for a cosy feel, while 'Cool White' (4000K) is fantastic for kitchens and bathrooms where you need clear visibility.
Why are LED downlights safer than my old ones?
Old halogen bulbs generate massive amounts of heat, which can cook the wiring and pose a fire risk near insulation. Modern integrated LEDs run much cooler and are often 'fire-rated', meaning they seal the ceiling gap to slow the spread of fire.
How much money will I actually save?
It's significant. An old 50W halogen spotlight can be replaced by a 5W LED that gives the same light. That's a 90% reduction in energy usage for that specific light.
