Car park lighting in Sancreed
What we do in Sancreed: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Sancreed still use sodium lanterns on columns that are structurally fine. Swapping just the heads for LED gives whiter, more even light for much less power.
Local car park lighting in Sancreed
We programme car park works in Sancreed around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
New columns in Sancreed need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Sancreed sits within Cornwall. We work throughout the TR19 and TR18 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Penzance, Marazion and St Ives.
