What is included
Light fixing and lighting installation for homes, offices and shops, from one replaced fitting to downlights, LED strip, pendants and outdoor lights. Most lighting faults in Dubai trace back to a fitting screwed into gypsum board alone, a driver with no headroom, or a joint that humidity has reached. Our own technicians isolate the circuit at the distribution board, prove it dead with a tester and work to the manufacturer's instructions. Any approval the building or the community asks for is identified at the site visit, and we prepare the paperwork.
- Existing fittings, transformers and dimmers surveyed room by room
- Lamp swap or full fitting change decided for each type
- Old transformers removed where LED lamps would underload them
- Colour temperature kept the same across each room
How we carry out LED lighting upgrade
Every room is surveyed and the fittings are counted by type. Some take a straight lamp swap. Low voltage halogen spots are different: their old transformers expect a heavy load, and an LED lamp draws so little that the transformer flickers or hums, so it is replaced with an LED driver or the fitting is changed for a mains voltage one. Fluorescent battens and panels are changed complete, since a new tube in old control gear rarely lasts. Dimmers are tried against the new lamps before we leave.
Halogen downlights throw a lot of heat into the room and the ceiling void, which the AC then has to remove, so in Dubai the saving shows on the cooling as well as the lighting. The usual complaint after a careless upgrade is a room in several shades of white, because the lamps were bought in batches with different colour temperatures. Lamps that glow faintly when switched off point to an old dimmer or an illuminated switch. The site visit lists every fitting and what sits behind it.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey and diagnosis. A technician inspects the system or surface, takes readings and photographs, and explains what was found in plain language.
- Written quotation. You receive a written quotation against a defined scope before any work starts. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately.
- Protected, supervised work. The work area is protected and isolated, and the job is carried out by our own technicians under a named supervisor.
- Testing. Every job ends with a measured test suited to the discipline, so the result is a reading and a photograph and not an opinion.
- Report and warranty. The completed report reaches you within the hour. Any failed point is put right free of charge within 48 hours.
LED Lighting Upgrade in Al Barari: what we plan for
Al Barari is a low density community built inside botanical gardens, with streams, lakes and dense planting between the homes. It includes large private villas, The Nest and The Reserve, and the Seventh Heaven and Ashjar apartments.
The planting that makes Al Barari special also keeps humidity high and surfaces shaded. Leaf litter, pollen and insects are part of daily life, and algae grows quickly on outdoor stone and shaded walls. High humidity makes AC drains and coils work harder, so we recommend more frequent servicing here than elsewhere.
There is one gated entrance and contractors are registered with security by the resident. Working hours are limited to keep the community quiet.

Questions about LED lighting upgrade in Al Barari
What does LED lighting upgrade include?
Old halogen, fluorescent and metal halide lights are replaced with LED fittings or lamps, and the transformers and dimmers behind them are changed to suit. The work includes existing fittings, transformers and dimmers surveyed room by room; lamp swap or full fitting change decided for each type; old transformers removed where LED lamps would underload them.
Can I just change the lamps to LED?
In mains voltage fittings, usually yes. In low voltage halogen fittings the transformer often has to change as well, and an older dimmer may not suit. We can do one room first so you see the result before the whole house is changed.
Will LED lights look colder than my old ones?
Only if the wrong colour temperature is chosen. Warm white LED is close to halogen in tone. We bring sample lamps to the site visit so you can compare them in your own room against the walls and furniture.
How much does LED lighting upgrade cost in Al Barari?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size and type of the system or surface; present condition and ease of access. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides LED lighting upgrade in Al Barari?
The MELLS provides LED lighting upgrade in Al Barari, Dubai. The work is carried out by people The MELLS employs directly, under a named supervisor, 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday. To arrange it, book a site visit on this page or call +971 55 444 0084.
How long does LED lighting upgrade take?
Typically 1 to 3 hours for a few fittings, longer for whole rooms. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Do you fix and install lights in Al Barari?
Yes. Our own technicians replace single fittings and install complete lighting in villas, apartments, offices and shops across Dubai. A site visit confirms the ceiling type, the fixing points and the circuit before the scope is put in writing.
Can you install lights that I have bought myself?
Yes. Have the fitting out of its box at the site visit so we can check its weight, the driver it needs and its rating for the room. If a bathroom or garden fitting is not sealed for that location, we tell you before it goes up.
Why do my LED lights flicker?
Four causes account for most flicker: a failing driver, a dimmer that does not suit the lamp, a loose neutral, or a transformer carrying more than it should. We test for them in turn instead of swapping lamps at random, and show you what we found.
How do your crews get access to Al Barari?
There is one gated entrance and contractors are registered with security by the resident. Working hours are limited to keep the community quiet.
Do you use products that are safe for planting?
Yes. Outdoor run off is controlled and plant safe products are used near beds and water features.
How do I choose a company for LED lighting upgrade in Al Barari?
Ask four things: who employs the people who will come, whether the scope is written down before work starts, how the result is checked, and what happens if something is missed. The MELLS uses its own staff, quotes in writing after a site visit, checks every job (a measured test for every job, with photographs before and after) and puts right any failed check free of charge within 48 hours.
