Rules that apply in Cardiff
Emergency lighting in Cardiff falls under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The responsible person must make sure people can see their way out if the power fails, and keep records of testing.
In Cardiff, new and replacement lighting is judged against the Welsh Approved Document L, so we choose fittings with efficacy to spare and keep the evidence on file.
Cardiff FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Cardiff?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, the Welsh Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Do you remove the old fittings in Cardiff?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
Can you work out of hours in Cardiff?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Cardiff offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
