When a client asks you to fully illuminate a Norfolk church without a single light fitting being visible, you don't just reach for the nearest spotlight.
Our electrician Andy faced exactly that challenge recently: lighting the main worship area of this beautiful countryside church as brightly as possible, while keeping every fitting completely out of sight.
The solution wasn't just about where to hide the lights. It was about choosing the right lights in the first place. Not just any LED strip would work here, the delicate nature of the building demanded careful selection, ensuring the output, colour temperature and profile were precisely right for the space. Too bright and it would feel clinical. Too warm and the paintings would lose their true colours. Too bulky and there simply wouldn't be a suitable recess to conceal them.
Andy carefully installed the chosen strips within the steps and recesses of the exposed beams, producing a warm, even glow that fills the entire space. Bright enough to worship in, soft enough to feel at home in. Every painting on the walls is beautifully lit, with no shadows or dark corners remaining.
It's the kind of job that doesn't shout about itself, and that's exactly the point.
At Trevor Wright Electrical we take real pride in working sympathetically within historic and sensitive buildings, bringing modern electrical solutions without compromising the character of the space.
