Downlights replaced in Davidson at a real price, not a range you find out about later. Electrical3 is based in Cromer, minutes from Davidson, and this is work we do across the Northern Beaches every week.
Every figure below is what we install for, including GST.
| What | Price inc GST | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| 10 downlights swapped | $584 | About $58 a light, including GST and fully installed. |
| 20 downlights swapped | $1,096 | The price per light falls as the number rises — the access and setup are done once. |
| Your exact number | Priced on the page | The calculator on our lighting page gives your figure as you move the slider. |
| Dimmers matched to the new lights | Quoted with the job | Old halogen dimmers rarely work properly with LED and are best changed together. |
| Outdoor and undereave lighting | Quoted on site | Worth doing in the same visit while the ladders are already out. |
Big 1960s to 80s homes with a lot of ceiling. These are the houses where a whole-house swap makes the most difference, because there are often thirty or forty lights and every one of them is drawing 50 watts.
Bush-surrounded 1970s housing on large blocks, quiet and long-held. The recurring work is bringing a house of that era up to current expectations: RCD protection, an upgraded board, compliant smoke alarms, and outdoor circuits done properly rather than extended again.
Large numbers of halogens, where the price per light drops the more you do at once
Downlights in insulated ceilings on bush blocks, where heat clearance matters
Outdoor and undereave lighting worth doing in the same visit
Ten swapped from 50W halogen to LED is $584 including GST, fully installed — about $58 a light. Twenty is $1,096. The calculator on our lighting page prices your exact number as you move the slider.
Usually yes. The access, the setup and the travel happen once, so the price per light falls as the number rises. If you are going to do it eventually, doing it in one visit is the cheaper way.

Almost never. Most halogens are a 90mm cut-out and the LEDs go straight into the same hole. Where a ceiling has an odd size we match it rather than enlarging it, which matters in older and heritage ceilings.
They come out. Leaving them in the ceiling is the shortcut that gets taken and it is both a heat problem and a waste — an LED does not need one. The old fittings and transformers leave with us.
Ten lights is a morning. The old ones come out, the new ones go in, and the room is left as it was found. Every job gets a certificate of compliance.
