Returns & Refunds
At Lightco, we are committed to providing high-quality lighting products and an excellent customer experience.
Please review the information below before placing your order. If something isn’t quite right with your purchase, our team will work with you to find the most appropriate solution in accordance with this policy.
This policy operates in accordance with applicable consumer protection laws, including the Australian Consumer Law (ACL)
Change of Mind or Incorrect Orders
We recommend reviewing product specifications carefully before placing your order, including finish, size, quantity and other details.
As many of our lighting products are specially sourced or imported, we are unable to offer refunds for change-of-mind purchases or incorrect selections.
However, in some cases we may be able to offer an exchange or store credit, provided that:
- You contact us within 30 days of receiving your order
- The item is unused, uninstalled and in its original condition
- The item is returned in its original packaging
Approved exchanges may be subject to a restocking fee of up to 25% of the purchase price.
Return shipping and associated logistics costs are the responsibility of the customer.
Certain items, including special-order or imported products, may not be eligible for return or exchange.

If you believe your product may be faulty, please contact our team within 3 days of receiving your order by emailing info@lightco.com.au

All lighting products sold by Lightco are covered by a minimum 2-year manufacturer’s warranty, in accordance with Australian Consumer Law.
Electrical lighting products should be installed by a licensed electrician. Warranty claims may require proof of installation by a qualified electrician.
If a product is confirmed to be faulty and the issue cannot be resolved under the manufacturer’s warranty, we may offer one of the following remedies:
- Repair
- Replacement
- Store credit
- Full refund (if a replacement is unavailable)
If a fault is identified, please do not install or continue using the product until the issue has been assessed.
