Bathroom Lighting
Whether you're lighting a family bathroom, ensuite, or compact cloakroom, well-chosen fittings make a noticeable difference. We offer a wide range of ceiling and wall lights that provide clear, comfortable illumination without glare or harsh shadows. Options are available for all areas, including fittings suitable for use above a shower as well as lights designed for use near a mirror or vanity unit.
Good placement matters as much as the fitting itself. A central downlight above the basin can cast unhelpful shadows, while side lighting offers more even illumination. Opal glass helps diffuse the light, and fixtures with a matt metal finish reduce reflected glare, creating a softer, more practical effect
Why Upgrade Your Bathroom Lighting?
Better Visibility Where You Need It
Well-placed bathroom lighting improves everyday tasks like shaving or applying makeup. A central ceiling fitting often casts shadows, especially around the face. Adding mirror lights or wall fittings to either side gives even, shadow-free illumination.
More Comfortable, Adaptable Spaces
Layered lighting creates a more usable bathroom. Downlights offer general light, while wall or vanity fittings provide focused task lighting. Dimmable options and warmer tones help shift from bright mornings to relaxing evenings.
Improved Style and Layout
Replacing outdated ceiling fittings with discreet downlights or contemporary wall lights can transform the room’s look. Choosing finishes that match taps or hardware helps create a more cohesive design.
Safety and Compliance
Bathrooms are wet zones, so safety matters. All our bathroom lights meet appropriate IP ratings, including options for use above showers or near basins. These fittings are designed to perform reliably in humid environments.

Discover the Right Bathroom Lighting for Every Space
Find lighting that suits the way you use your bathroom, whether that’s getting ready in the morning, relaxing at the end of the day, or accommodating a busy family household. Our bathroom lighting range covers everything from general ceiling illumination to task lighting around mirrors and vanity units.
Planning Your Bathroom Lighting
Lighting a bathroom requires a different approach to other rooms. Surfaces are often reflective, natural light may be limited, and the space needs to serve both practical and decorative roles. A layered lighting plan helps. Downlights can provide general light, while wall or mirror fittings offer more focused illumination for daily tasks.
Avoiding Glare and Shadows
Glare from tiles and mirrors, or shadows caused by poor placement, can be frustrating. Positioning lights on either side of the mirror instead of above it provides more even coverage. Look for fittings with opal glass diffusers and matt metal finishes, as these reduce reflections and help spread the light evenly.
Do Bathroom Lights Need an IP Rating?
Not all bathroom lights need to be IP rated. Only those installed in specific areas, such as above a shower or next to a bath, fall within the bathroom’s zones that require moisture protection. We offer a wide range of IP44 and IP65 rated fittings, as well as standard lights suitable for dry areas like outside Zone 2.
What Colour Temperature LED is Best for a Bathroom?
For most modern bathrooms, 4000°K (neutral white) is the best all-round choice. It is bright and clear without feeling clinical, making it ideal for grooming and general use. It also complements white ceramics and chrome fittings found in contemporary bathrooms.
Warmer tones around 2700 to 3000°K may suit traditional bathrooms or where a softer, more relaxed atmosphere is preferred.
Why Upgrade Your Bathroom Lighting?
Better visibility. Improve everyday tasks like shaving or applying makeup with correctly placed fittings.
More comfortable spaces. Combine overhead and task lighting for flexibility throughout the day.
Improved style. Update older fittings with discreet, modern options that tie in with taps and other hardware.
Safety where needed. Use IP-rated fittings in wet areas to ensure safe and reliable performance.
