The light's great but it's not what I expected. Can I exchange it for another light or have my money back?

All our lights from the GCD range are custom made to order so unfortunately we do not offer money back. Fittings from all our other other ranges can be exchanged providing it meets with our returns policy. 

How long will I have to wait for my delivery?

Each of our brands are unique and so delivery times vary depending on the particular brand. Take a peek at the product page of the light you like and you will find the delivery time.

We deliver to any destination in the mainland UK and ALL deliveries are FREE! If you're lucky enough to live on the Isle Of Man, Channel Islands or the Outer Hebrides we can also deliver to you for a small fee.

Delivery is normally 1-2 working days after they have been dispatched and is usually by courier to your door, so it needs to be signed for. 

Can you make a light to my specifications?

Absolutely! Get in touch and we will do our best to help.

Do you deliver outside of the UK?

Yes we regularly deliver internationally. Please contact us for a quote.

Do you offer trade discounts?

Are the lights guaranteed?

Absolutely. If you look at the product specification you will see the guarantee conditions towards to bottom.  

What lightbulb do I need?

Some of our light fittings come supplied with bulbs. The best way to see if your light comes with a bulb is to check the product specification or simply drop us an email and we will be happy to tell you.  

Can I install the lights myself?

We strongly recommend using a fully qualified electrician to install your lights. Any installation that has not been carried out by a qualified professional will render the guarantee null and void.

What voltage are the lights?

All of our fittings are designed and rated for the UK and Europe (230 volts). However, lighting designers are clever things and most of our fittings can be adapted for use internationally (110 volts) If you're not sure just drop us an email or give us a call.

Do you offer a design service?

Absolutely. Get in touch here for details 

Can I have a sample light?

We understand that it's hard to tell exactly what a light actually looks like without seeing and feeling it. Contact us for more details and we'll see how we can help.
