Downlights replaced in Dee Why at a real price, not a range you find out about later. Electrical3 is based in Cromer, minutes from Dee Why, 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. |
Shops and units where the lighting is on all day. Old fluorescent battens and halogens cost more to run over a year than replacing them costs, and for a business the payback is measured in months rather than years.
The densest part of the peninsula, and the most mixed — high-rise and walk-up apartments, commercial premises, and post-war houses behind them. A large share of the work is strata: establishing whether a fault sits in the lot or in common property before anyone starts, so the right party is billed.
Fluorescent battens that cost more to run than to replace
Retail lighting where colour temperature matters to how the stock looks
Common-area lighting in blocks, which is usually strata rather than lot

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.
