Existing homes
Lighting control,
without the rewire.
You don’t need to be renovating to live with beautiful lighting control. In many homes it’s a matter of replacing the controls and adding compact dimming modules out of sight, with very little disruption. Often there’s no chasing and no need to redecorate.
1 / What changes
Your wiring stays
where it is.
Wireless Lutron works with the cables already in your walls. Here’s what we actually do:
- Switches become keypads. Your existing switches are replaced with elegant Lutron keypads and dimmers, in the same positions.
- Dimmers go out of sight. Where it’s needed, compact dimmers are fitted in the ceiling above the downlights.
- A small hub ties it together. It links every keypad and dimmer, and connects the system to your phone.
- Everything else stays put. In most cases, walls, ceilings and decoration are left as they are.
2 / What you get
The same experience
as a full rewire.
- Scenes at a touch. Cooking, dinner, film night: the whole room set in a single press.
- One button for the whole house. Everything off from the front door or beside the bed.
- Lighting that runs itself. Gentle schedules, and a lived-in look while you’re away.
- Control from anywhere. The Lutron app on your phone, and voice control if you’d like it.
- Blinds too. Motorised blinds and curtains can join the same system. We’ll advise what each window needs.
3 / How it works
Quick, tidy
and low-disruption.
Most of the work is done at the switch and above the ceiling, so your rooms stay usable throughout.

Installation
We fit and programme everything ourselves, so there’s no need to arrange an electrician. Very little disruption, and often no chasing or redecorating.
Programming and support
Scenes set up and refined with you, a proper handover, and help whenever you need it.
4 / Where to start
Start with one room,
add more later.
Many people start with the rooms they use most, often the kitchen and living room, and add others over time. The system grows with the house.

5 / Questions
Common questions.
Will there be any mess?
Very little. Controls are usually changed in their existing positions and dimmers fitted out of sight, so there’s often no chasing, plastering or redecorating.
Will it work with my existing lights?
Usually. We check your fittings during the lighting review and tell you if any bulbs or drivers should change for smooth, flicker-free dimming.
Is wireless reliable?
Yes. Lutron’s wireless uses its own dedicated radio, separate from your Wi-Fi, so it isn’t affected by a busy home network.
Is it complicated to use?
No. It’s simpler than a row of switches. Every keypad button is engraved with what it does, and we explain everything at handover.
Can I add rooms later?
Yes. Start small and add rooms, keypads or blinds whenever you’re ready.
