LED high bay lighting in Eastleigh

MCI Electrical fits LED high bay lighting in warehouses and depots around Eastleigh, Whiteley, Chandler's Ford, Hedge End and Southampton. We survey the existing high bays, give a written price, then fit the new lamps over the working floor.

“I have worked on commercial premises across Eastleigh and Southampton since 2009. I quote the job, do the work and sign it off myself, so you always deal with the person who knows your building.”

Who needs warehouse LED lighting

  • We book this work for firms whose high bays are dim, hot, slow to start, or costly to run. Typical jobs sit in warehouses, depots, workshops and loading bays around Eastleigh, Whiteley, Segensworth, Chandler's Ford, Hedge End, Botley and Southampton docks.
  • You call when pickers cannot see labels at the far end of a rack, or when old high pressure lamps take minutes to come up after a breaker trip.
  • Fleet sheds and goods in bays often still run sodium or metal halide high bays. We swap those for LED so the floor, docks and vehicle pits are lit as soon as the switch is on.
  • Plant rooms and fabrication shops around Chandler's Ford and Hedge End need even light at bench height. High bay LED fittings throw that light down without the heat of the old lamps.

What is and is not included

The job is the high bay fittings, the circuits that feed them, and the paperwork that goes with the change.

Included

  • Survey of the existing high bays, mounting height and how the aisles are used
  • Written price for LED high bay fittings and the labour to fit them
  • Removal of the old lamps and control gear, and fitting of the new LED high bays
  • Checks on the lighting circuits, isolators and emergency lighting that sits with the high bays
  • Certificate for the work once the new fittings are on and tested

Not included

  • Office and corridor LED work, which is a separate office lighting upgrade from £480
  • A full distribution board change, which starts from £950 if the lighting board itself is worn out
  • Painting, ceiling repairs, or moving racking so we can reach the fittings

What happens on the day

We attend the warehouse ourselves. Work runs in opening hours unless you have booked out of hours cover.

  1. 01

    Arrival and isolation

    We meet you on site, walk the aisles, isolate the high bay circuits, and confirm which rows we are changing first so picking or loading can carry on in the rest of the building.

  2. 02

    Swap the high bays

    Old fittings come down, new LED high bays go up on the same mounts or new ones, and we check aiming over the floor, docks and any inspection pits.

  3. 03

    Test and certificate

    We energise the circuits, check each fitting, complete the certificate, and leave you with the old lamps removed from site.

How this is priced

From £680 the starting price buys a warehouse or high bay LED lighting upgrade: we count the existing fittings, give a written price, then fit the new LED high bays.

  • The starting price is for a straightforward swap of existing high bays to LED. Extra height, extra rows, or a new layout is priced after we see the building.
  • Out of hours work is charged as emergency callout from £105/hr if you need the warehouse lit the same night.
  • MCI Electrical is NICEIC registered. You deal with us from quote to completion.
  • Fixed wire testing is priced on the number of boards and circuits, not by the hour.
  • Emergency lighting is priced per light, and the three hour test is priced separately.
  • Repairs are priced item by item off the report, so you choose what to do and when.
  • Work outside your trading hours costs a different rate, and I tell you what it is before I set off.
  • Quotes are free, rescheduling is free, and there is no callout fee.

What you get after LED high bays

You are left with working high bay light over the floor and a certificate for the change.

Define the proposal
You get a written price that names the fittings, the number of high bays, and what the starting figure from £680 actually covers in your building.
Warehouse work kept apart
Office LED, emergency lighting, and the warehouse high bays are priced as their own jobs so the warehouse work does not get mixed with a shop floor or office change.
Match any requested record
If you need a list of fittings, circuit references, or a copy of the test results for your files, we complete that against the work we have just done.
Certification for the work
You receive the electrical certificate for the high bay upgrade at the end of the visit.

Why customers choose MCI Electrical

Access and fittings are counted separately so you can see what drives the figure. Aiming is checked over the floor before we pack up.
