Local car park lighting in Ferndown
Many car parks around Ferndown 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.
Older columns in Ferndown sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Our teams travel to Ferndown from across Dorset. Typical nearby jobs include Colehill, Wimborne Minster and Verwood, so we can often combine survey visits.
