Local car park lighting in West Kilbride
Footpaths from West Kilbride car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Older columns in West Kilbride sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Our teams travel to West Kilbride from across Ayrshire. Typical nearby jobs include Ardrossan, Fairlie and Saltcoats, so we can often combine survey visits.
