Car park lighting in Dunbar
What we do in Dunbar: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Footpaths from Dunbar car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.

Local car park lighting in Dunbar
New columns in Dunbar need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.

Dunbar FAQs
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
Can you work out of hours in Dunbar?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Dunbar offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
How quickly can you survey in Dunbar?
Most surveys in Dunbar can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Can you reuse our existing columns?
Often, yes. If the columns are structurally sound, swapping the heads for LED lanterns is much cheaper than new columns.
