Car park lighting in Exeter
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Exeter 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 Exeter
New columns in Exeter need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Footpaths from Exeter car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Our teams travel to Exeter from across Devon. Typical nearby jobs include Heavitree, Doddiscombsleigh and Broad Clyst, so we can often combine survey visits.
