Outdoor light maintenance

Why you should get an electrician to maintain your outdoor or security light

An outdoor light is a lifesaver when you get home in the dark and have to find your keys. And if you have a sensor-operated security light, it gives you that extra peace of mind. These lights normally work without much maintenance, but as with any other appliance, they do eventually reach the end of their lifespan. Since they’re outside, they face all kinds of weather including rain, snow and frost. So after a while, moisture and dust can seep in and cause problems.

To keep your outdoor and security lights in good working order, we recommend asking a Part P qualified electrician to give them a professional once-over from time to time. These professionals are certified to safely work with electricity in and around your home. They’ll test your lights and all the connections, and if they spot a more serious issue, they’ll notify you straightaway and suggest the best solution.
