Car park lighting in Salcombe
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Older columns in Salcombe sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Local car park lighting in Salcombe
Many car parks around Salcombe 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.
New columns in Salcombe need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Our teams travel to Salcombe from across Devon. Typical nearby jobs include Kingsbridge, Dartmouth and Ivybridge, so we can often combine survey visits.
