The Right Light In The Right Spot, Inside & Out
Good lighting is the quiet difference between a room you like being in and one you just put up with. We plan and install lighting for the whole home, from bright, even downlights in the kitchen to soft layers in the lounge and proper light over the front steps, so every space gets the light it actually needs. Most Brisbane homes are lit by whatever fittings happened to be there, which is how you end up with a dark benchtop you cannot prep on, a glary bedroom you cannot wind down in, and a back yard that disappears the moment the sun drops. We sort all of it room by room, working as a fully licensed team (Electrical Contractor Licence 1503699), so the wiring is signed off to standard and the look is handled by the same hands. You get a flat-fee quote up front, which means the number we quote is the number you pay with no hidden fees. Every fitting we install is backed by our lifetime workmanship guarantee for as long as you own the place, so the result is light that lands where you actually use it, with no dim corners, no harsh glare in the wrong spots, and nothing to second-guess later.
Whether you are mapping out a renovation, fitting out a new build or just sick of one harsh bulb trying to do a whole room, we will work out a lighting plan that suits how you live and looks the part. Maybe you want warm pendants over the island, dimmers in the bedrooms, or a sensor light on the driveway so nobody fumbles for the door after dark. Tell us the rooms and we will map it out. Tidy, energy-smart and installed by licensed hands, with a flat-fee quote before we start. And if it is a bigger reno or new-build job, you can spread the cost over time with Brighte or Zip, so good lighting does not have to wait.
Whole-Home Lighting, Designed Then Installed
Most homes are lit by whatever fittings happened to be there, which is how you end up with a dark benchtop, a glary bedroom and a back yard you cannot see past. We start with what each room is for, then layer the light to match. The bright stuff where you work, softer feature and ambient light where you relax, and sensible control so you are not flooding a room you are trying to wind down in.
From there we handle the lot. Downlight layouts, pendants and feature fittings, strip and accent lighting, dimmers and sensors, and outdoor and security lighting for paths, entries and the back yard. One team, one plan, and a finish that looks designed rather than just bolted to the ceiling.
Our Lighting Services Include
Lighting Design & Planning
A room-by-room lighting plan for renovations and new builds, working out where every fitting goes before a hole is cut.
Downlights & Ceiling Lighting
Clean, evenly spaced downlights and ceiling fittings that light the whole room properly, with no dark corners or hot glare.
Feature & Ambient Lighting
Pendants, strip lighting and accent fittings that add warmth and depth, so a space feels finished rather than just lit.
Dimming & Sensor Control
Dimmers, timers and motion sensors that set the mood, save power and put the right light on automatically when you need it.
Outdoor & Garden Lighting
Path, deck, entry and garden lighting that makes the outside of your home usable and safe long after the sun goes down.
Security & Sensor Lighting
Motion-activated flood and security lights for driveways and side access, so nothing sneaks up on a dark corner of the property.
Why A Lighting Plan Beats A Box Of Bulbs
Lighting is easy to get wrong one fitting at a time. Swap a globe here, add a lamp there, and you still end up with a kitchen that is dim where it matters and a bedroom that feels like a servo. Planning the whole space at once means the light lands where you use it, the mood is right where you relax, and you are not paying to run fittings that were never in the right spot.
It pays off on the bill too. The right layout with efficient fittings, dimmers and sensors uses less power and lasts longer, which means fewer ladder trips and a lower running cost year round. Good lighting is one of the cheapest ways to make a home feel better, and one of the easiest to get right when it is planned properly from the start.
Why Brisbane Homes Choose Elite For Lighting
Plenty of places will sell you fittings and leave you to it. We design the lighting and install it, all under one licensed roof, so the look and the wiring are handled by the same team and signed off to standard (Electrical Contractor Licence 1503699). You get a flat-fee quote, workmanship backed by our We Fix It or It’s Free* promise, and the option to spread a bigger reno or new-build job over time with Brighte or Zip. The number on the quote is the number on the invoice. Tell us the rooms you want sorted and we will map out the lighting with you, no pressure.

Got A Question About Lighting?
Can you design the lighting for my renovation or new build?
Yes, that is a big part of what we do. We plan the lighting room by room before any holes are cut, working out where downlights, feature fittings and switches go so the finished home is lit properly rather than left to chance. Bring us your plans or just walk us through the space.
What is the difference between this and your LED lighting service?
This page is the bigger picture. Whole-home lighting design across indoor, outdoor, feature and security lighting. Our LED lighting service focuses on the upgrade side, swapping old halogens for efficient LEDs to bring the power bill down. Plenty of jobs use both, and we will point you to the right starting place when you call.
Can you set up dimmers and sensor lighting?
Yes. We install dimmers, timers and motion sensors so you can set the mood inside and have outdoor and security lights come on by themselves. It is one of the easiest ways to make lighting more comfortable and cut a bit off the running cost at the same time.
How much does a lighting job cost?
It depends on the number of rooms, the fittings you choose and how much wiring is involved, so we quote each job flat-fee after a look. The quote is the number you pay, and finance through Brighte or Zip is there if you would rather spread a larger reno or new-build job over time.
Which Brisbane areas do you cover for lighting work?
We cover Brisbane and the surrounding regions, from Capalaba on the bayside east up to Redcliffe in the north and most postcodes in between, seven days a week. A whole-home lighting plan is exactly the kind of job we love to come out for, so tell us your suburb when you call and we will let you know how soon we can get there to map it out.
