Local car park lighting in Budleigh Salterton
Many car parks around Budleigh Salterton 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 programme car park works in Budleigh Salterton around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.

Budleigh Salterton FAQs

Which rules apply to lighting work in Budleigh Salterton?
