Car park lighting in Trimdon
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Trimdon and County Durham. We programme car park works in Trimdon around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Trimdon
Older columns in Trimdon sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Many car parks around Trimdon 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.
We cover the whole of Trimdon, including the TS29, TS28 and DH6 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Hutton Henry, Shadforth and Peterlee.
