We used the lighting shop for rewiring work and some additional lighting a year ago. They didn't even insulate a live wire under the kitchen unit, considering they were working in that area and would have to have really poor eyesight to not see it, damaged the door of our expensive washing machine and reluctantly payed for a replacement door. A year on and we still have the fuse box tripping, which should have been fixed as this was part of the job asked. We have now been informed by a professional electrician due to do some work soon, that we have the incorrect down lights fitted in the kitchen which will have to be replaced. All this for £5k+. We then find out the parts they used are all 'old stock', discontinued lines. I would never recommend this company and most definitely regret letting them rip my In-Laws off.This is a completely true account of their work. Very happy to show them if they like.

I was looking for track lighting. When I entered the store I found a person who's intention was to be helpful, rather than selling something at all costs. Furthermore, this was at the end of his work day. I couldn't find what I was looking for, yet the seller directed me to another unrelated store which had what I was looking for. I came out of the store not feeling like an empty cash machine. You rarely experience such attitude. This is a real review. The interaction happened a while ago, but it left a lasting impression. Needless to say, I didn't receive the level of service at the other place. I'm not a friend of the seller/owner, nor related to them in any way. I have not been paid to write a convincing review either. It's simply what happened to me, objectively.

  • Paul Ions

Being in this kind of market place we would advise any potential buyers to call first or look at some ideas given by our suppliers. Without a crystal ball we cannot always give advise without some kind of detail. It would be unfair for anyone to give a poor review when the lady(without electrical knowledge) in the shop is just covering while we are out on our install work.

  • Sara Jones

Asked what kind of lights I wanted, I said ‘for the kitchen ‘ and described a couple of styles. She told me I needed a better idea. I asked if I could look at the catalogues she has sitting around the shop but she handed me a list of suppliers and told me it’s best to look on line After trekking across Croydon to get there, it was a complete waste of time.

Excellent little shop which I wish we had found sooner. Extremely helpful and pleasant gentleman who has every bulb you could imagine and access to a plentiful choice of lighting. Happy to help and understands customer service. If you need lighting this is the place to visit.

  • Ali Mirza

Just had my ceiling light fixed by Paul. Paul was courteous, professional and had a true passion for customer service. He fixed my light in less than 24hrs and kept me informed throughout. Will be using Paul for all of electrical fixes! Thank you Paul

  • Sam Ward

Extremely friendly and helpful owner. Sold me 4 lightbulbs but unfortunately they were the incorrect wattage (completely my fault) and was more than happy to process a refund for me. Will definitely be coming here for any future light purchases!

  • Henza Hunter

The shop didn't have the items I paid for but the customer care folks were prompt at opening up a dialog, and then refunding my money when I requested. Professional and easy company to deal with and would deffinately shop here in the future.

Some idiot is writing fake news on this page and has been reported to the relevant authorities pending legal action to be taken in due course...... Watch this space....

  • Janet Baine

I asked Mr Ions to install some lights and carry out partial re-wiring for me. He and his son were absolutely excellent and helpful.
