These folk went above and beyond to install a replacement stovetop mere days before all our family turned up for our big event! I can’t recommend Hack-it electrical enough. And a big shout out to to Smeg, who replaced the whole induction top under warranty instead of just the part, which would have taken way longer. Top product, Top service, Top electricians.

Great service. Took my hot water heater off controlled load so I can take advantage of solar panels and free electricity in the middle of the day. Highly recommended.

Had an electric light issue and contacted Damien from Hack-it Electrical Solutions. Advised he could come and look at it as soon as possible. He arrived 1hour later and fixed our issue. Best service we’ve had off any trade person since living in Bellingen. Great guy, professional and the cost was very reasonable. Highly recommended Damien and his work.

Damian recently completed extensive works at my new home in Bellingen, updating both lights and electrical's . I found Damian to be both honest, fair and professional with a sincere intent to please the customer, of which I am not the easiest. Despite a number of hiccups Damian remained until all works were completed to satisfaction, maintaining a relaxed and happy disposition which was easy to accommodate. I would definitely return to Damian for any future works and recommend him highly and without hesitation. Thanks Damian

I highly recommend Damo for electrical work. He is honest and up front about the work to be done and does a great job. We had jobs to be done that other electrician’s had previously looked at and said couldn’t be done or didn’t want to do because of the difficulty and Damo went above and beyond with effort and skill to make sure the jobs that we had got done and done right.

Why upgrade to LED downlights

  • Lower running costs: LEDs use a fraction of the power of old halogens for the same or better light
  • Less heat: Old halogen downlights run hot; swapping to LED removes a real heat source from your ceiling space
  • Longer life: Good LED fittings last for years, so you’re not up a ladder replacing globes
  • Better light: Choose a warm, neutral or cool colour to suit each room
  • Dimmable options: Set the mood in living areas and bedrooms with compatible dimmers

What a lighting upgrade can include

  • Replacing existing halogen or old-style downlights with modern LED fittings
  • New downlights in kitchens, living areas, bedrooms, hallways and outdoor eaves
  • Dimmer installation and dimmable LED fittings
  • Switching to warm, neutral or cool white to suit the room
  • Upgrading fluorescent battens in garages, laundries and sheds to LED
  • Feature, pendant and under-cabinet lighting

All work is carried out to the AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules by a licensed electrician.

We also install ceiling fans with integrated lighting for all living rooms, bedrooms and covered outdoor areas

Old downlights and ceiling heat

If your home still has the older-style halogen downlights, they generate a lot of heat where they sit in the ceiling. Modern LED fittings run much cooler and are installed to the current standards, which is part of why an upgrade is worth doing properly, not just a globe swap. In many older Bellingen and Coffs Coast homes we also check the existing wiring and transformers while we’re up there, so everything going back in is safe and compliant.

How we do it

  1. Talk through what you want: Brightness, colour, dimming and which rooms
  2. Check the existing setup: Fittings, wiring and switch positions
  3. Install and test: Neat, compliant fittings, tested and left tidy
  4. Certified: Yyou receive a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work

Lighting That Works With Your Body, Not Against It

Lighting is something we are passionate about and installing and your homes lighting, can disrupt sleep more than most people realise. Bright white and blue-toned light suppresses melatonin production and interferes with the natural sleep-wake cycle.
If your household values great sleeping, Damian can specify warmer colour temperatures for bedrooms and living rooms. Read more about lighting, wiring and sleep here.

LED Lighting FAQs

Find answers to common questions about our services, safety standards, and what to expect when working with our team.

Downlight replacement is electrical work and needs a licensed electrician to be safe and compliant, especially where the old fittings have transformers or aged wiring behind them.

LEDs use significantly less power than halogens for the same light, so most homes see the difference on their power bill, and you replace fittings far less often.

Yes, with dimmable LED fittings and a compatible dimmer. We’ll match the right dimmer to the fittings so there’s no flicker or buzz.

Warm white suits living areas and bedrooms, while neutral or cool white works well in kitchens, bathrooms and workspaces. We’ll help you pick per room.

Absolutely, we can add new downlights to brighten a dark room or space them more evenly, as long as the circuit can take it, which we’ll check first.
