Brightening Up a Cloak Room – A Quick Fix with Big Benefits
At Smart Power Electricians, we believe that even the smallest jobs can make a big difference. Recently, one of our junior engineers, Will, took on a quick but impactful task: replacing a broken light fitting in a customer’s cloakroom. What seemed like a minor issue ended up showcasing the efficiency and brightness of modern LED lighting. Here’s the story of how a simple swap transformed a dim, troublesome space into a bright and efficient one.
The Challenge
The customer’s cloakroom light had been a source of frustration for some time. The existing light fitting was broken, and the customer had resorted to taping the cover on to keep it in place. Unfortunately, with the very low ceiling, this makeshift solution didn’t last. The cover eventually fell off, and someone accidentally broke the light bulb, creating a bit of a mess.
During our visit to replace failed emergency lights, the customer asked if we could also address the cloakroom light. Given the age of the building, the area was already poorly lit, so we knew this was an opportunity to make a significant improvement.
The Solution
Will stepped up to the challenge. He removed the old, broken light fitting and replaced it with a new, bright LED fitting. This modern solution not only provides much better illumination but is also far more efficient than the old fixture. The new LED light is a win-win for the customer: brighter lighting and lower energy consumption.
The Results
The transformation was immediate and impressive. The cloakroom, once dim and frustrating to use, is now brightly lit, making it much more pleasant and functional. The customer was thrilled with the result and appreciated the quick, professional service.


Seeing is believing, and this job is a perfect example of how a small change can make a big difference. Check out the before and after photos below to see the dramatic improvement for yourself.
