Car park lighting in Waverton
What we do in Waverton: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. For Waverton retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Local car park lighting in Waverton
New columns in Waverton need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Many car parks around Waverton 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.
Our teams travel to Waverton from across Cumbria. Typical nearby jobs include Orton, Cockermouth and Maryport, so we can often combine survey visits.
