Our Professional Lighting Installation Services Include
We work across every property type in Brisbane: Queenslander homes, post-war houses, modern apartments, and commercial premises. Our licensed electricians cover residential, commercial, and outdoor security work. The process is the same on every job: free quote, licensed install, full circuit test — all delivered with expert Lighting Installation Brisbane services.
Residential Lighting Installation
Our team installs and upgrades light fittings in Brisbane homes, including LED downlights, pendants, batten replacements, and bathroom wet zone fittings. Wet zones get IP-rated fittings as standard, not as an add-on. We work on existing ceilings and new builds, and dimmer switches pair with any fitting type.
Residential lighting installation typically includes:
- LED recessed downlights: standard, gimbal, and dimmable
- Pendant lights and ceiling rose replacements
- Batten light replacement for utility areas and garages
- IP44 and IP65 wet zone downlights for bathrooms and ensuites
- Dimmer switch installation paired with any fitting type
- Under-cabinet and feature LED strip lighting
- Halogen downlight upgrade to LED: supply and install
Commercial Lighting Installation
Offices, retail spaces, warehouses, and workshops each have lux requirements that vary by task and area. We design and install commercial lighting to meet those standards. Our electricians work around your trading hours to limit disruption, and LED technology is applied on every job to cut ongoing running costs.
Commercial lighting installation typically includes:
- LED panel lights for offices and meeting rooms
- Track lighting for retail displays and showrooms
- Batten light replacement for warehouses and workshops
- Exterior floodlighting and perimeter security lights
- Emergency and exit lighting to AS/NZS 2293 standards
- Sensor and timer-controlled lighting for common areas
- Energy audit and LED upgrade scoping for existing premises
Outdoor and Security Lighting Installation
Brisbane’s climate is tough on outdoor fittings. UV exposure, humidity, and storm season all demand proper weatherproofing. We install IP65-rated weatherproof downlights, sensor security lights, perimeter lights, and garden circuits. All outdoor cable runs through weatherproof conduit, and every fitting meets IP65 as a baseline.
Outdoor and security lighting installation typically includes:
- Weatherproof alfresco and patio downlights: IP65 rated
- Motion-activated and sensor security lights for driveways and entries
- Perimeter security lighting for homes and commercial properties
- Garden lighting circuits: low-voltage pathway and feature lighting
- Floodlights for carports, rear yards, and commercial yards
- Outdoor power points for alfresco areas
- All wiring in weatherproof conduit to AS/NZS 3000 standards
How M-Tech Electrical Solutions QLD handles your lighting installation
Every job follows the same four steps, from first contact through to handover. Nothing is signed off until each step is complete.
Assessment and Quote
Our licensed electrician visits before any work is booked. We check ceiling type, existing wiring, circuit capacity, and fitting positions, then give a clear upfront price. The agreed price is on the invoice. No variations without your sign-off
Installation & Inspection
We arrive with all agreed fittings and materials. Drop sheets go down before ceiling work begins. New circuits are run where needed, existing circuits checked for load. All wiring meets AS/NZS 3000. Wet zones get correctly rated fittings as standard.
Circuit Testing
Once the work is complete, every circuit is tested with proper equipment before the electrician leaves. Testing covers polarity, earth continuity, and RCD trip time. Any fault found during testing is fixed on the spot, not deferred
Handover and Clean-Up
Offcuts, packaging, and old fittings are removed. Drop sheets are pulled up and the area left clean. You get a walk-through and confirmation everything passed testing. The job is not closed until the site is clean and tests are signed off.

Frequently Asked Questions
A common guide is one downlight per 1.4 square metres of ceiling area. A 4m x 4m living room typically needs 10 to 12 for even coverage. Ceiling height, room use, and any task lighting affect the final count. We assess placement as part of every quote. Call 1800 549 545 for a room-specific recommendation.
A 3m x 3m room (9 square metres) typically needs 6 to 8 downlights for comfortable ambient light. Four is the practical minimum for even spread with no dark corners. Rooms with a vanity or bench task light can run fewer ceiling points and let the task light fill in.
Yes. In Queensland, any downlight within 600mm of a water source must carry a minimum IP44 rating. Directly above a shower, IP65 or higher is required. Fitting non-rated lights in wet zones breaches AS/NZS 3000 and can void your home insurance. We specify the correct rating on every bathroom job. It is not an optional add-on.
No. All electrical work in Queensland, including downlight fitting, circuit additions, and like-for-like replacements, must be done by a licensed electrician. Unlicensed electrical work is illegal under the Electrical Safety Act 2002, creates serious safety risk, and voids home and contents insurance. Our team is fully licensed, fast, and affordable. Call 1800 549 545.
LED downlight fitting in Brisbane typically runs $80 to $150 per point, depending on ceiling type, existing wiring, and total quantity. Swapping halogens for LED sits at the lower end. Adding new circuits or working in difficult ceiling spaces costs more. We provide a free upfront quote with no surprises on the invoice.

Our Other electrical services for Brisbane homes and businesses
Lighting is one part of what we do. M-Tech Electrical Solutions QLD covers the full range of residential and commercial electrical work across Brisbane. Here is what else we handle.
Electrical fault finding and repairs
Flickering lights, tripping safety switches, dead power points, burning smells. These point to a wiring fault that needs proper diagnosis, not a reset and a hope. Our electrical fault finding and repairs service uses insulation resistance, earth continuity, and polarity testing to find the actual cause. We repair it properly and test the affected circuit before leaving the site.
Smoke alarm installation and compliance service
Queensland legislation requires interconnected, photoelectric alarms in all bedrooms and key living areas. For rental properties, the compliance deadline has passed and penalties apply. Our smoke alarm service covers supply and fit of compliant hardwired units, interlinking existing systems, and written compliance records for landlords and property managers.
Switchboard upgrades
Many older Brisbane homes still run ceramic fuse boards that were never designed for the load of a modern household. A switchboard upgrade swaps the old board for a modern circuit breaker panel with full RCD protection. Our switchboard upgrade service is frequently combined with LED upgrades, new circuit additions, and renovation work.
LED strip lighting installation
LED strip lighting suits under-cabinet task lighting in kitchens, feature walls in living areas, cove lighting behind cornices, and architectural highlights. It needs a properly wired low-voltage driver and secure terminations. Our LED strip lighting service covers supply, fitting, driver wiring, and dimmer integration where required.
Downlight and Exhaust Fan Installation
Recessed LED downlights and bathroom exhaust fans are two of the most common renovation electrical items. Our downlight and exhaust fan Installation covers supply and installation as part of the renovation scope. Exhaust fan options include ceiling-mounted and inline fans for bathrooms and laundries. All downlights are sized and positioned to suit your ceiling layout.
Ceiling Fan Installation
Ceiling fans Installation is a practical addition to any renovation, reducing reliance on air conditioning and improving comfort in living areas, bedrooms, and outdoor entertaining spaces. We install ceiling fans in all room types including outdoor and commercial applications. Supply-and-install or customer-supplied fans are both available.
Safety switch installation and tripping faults
A safety switch (RCD) cuts power within milliseconds of detecting a fault to earth. Queensland law requires them on lighting and power circuits in residential properties. Our safety switch service covers new installations, upgrades, and nuisance tripping investigations where a switch trips repeatedly without a clear reason.
Downlight and exhaust fan installation
Bathroom and kitchen upgrades often need both downlights and exhaust fans in the same visit. Combining the work saves a second call-out fee and ensures all wet zone IP rating requirements are met across every fitting. Our downlight and exhaust fan service covers IP44 and IP65-rated bathroom fittings, exhaust fans, and inline kitchen ventilation.
Renovation electrician
Kitchen, bathroom, and room addition renovations all need electrical rough-in and fit-off work: new circuits, dedicated appliance feeds for ovens and induction cooktops, downlights, power points, and rangehood connections. Our renovation electrical service covers builder coordination, attendance timed around plastering and tiling, and full test and handover at completion. We work to build the programme and do not delay your other trades.
Hot water system fault finding
No hot water is often an electrical problem, not a plumbing one. Common causes include a failed element, a tripped circuit, or a faulty thermostat. Our hot water fault finding service diagnoses the electrical side of the system and repairs or replaces the failed component. We test with proper equipment before confirming the repair is done.
Residential electrician
Ceiling fans, new power points, safety switch testing, appliance circuits, and general home electrical work. Our residential electrician service covers the full range of standard home jobs across Brisbane. Licensed electrician on every visit, free quote upfront, and all circuits tested before we leave.
About Brisbane
Brisbane is Queensland’s capital city and Australia’s third-largest urban area, with a metro population of around 2.7 million. The city extends from Redcliffe and the Sunshine Coast corridor in the north to Logan in the south, with Moreton Bay and Bayside to the east. A subtropical climate brings warm summers, mild winters, and a storm season from November through March. Outdoor electrical work here requires weatherproof conduit and correctly rated fittings. The weather is not forgiving.
The housing stock is varied. Queenslander homes on elevated stumps, post-war brick-and-tile houses, and modern high-density apartments each present different wiring challenges. Many homes on the northside and in inner suburbs still carry original or early-generation wiring that needs assessment before any major upgrade. Our team has worked across all of these property types and knows what each one typically involves.
