Car park lighting in Hayes
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Footpaths from Hayes car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.

Local car park lighting in Hayes
Older columns in Hayes sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
New columns in Hayes need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Our teams travel to Hayes from across Greater London. Typical nearby jobs include Beckenham, Orpington and Chislehurst, so we can often combine survey visits.

Hayes FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Hayes?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
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.
Do you cover all of Hayes?
Yes. We work across Hayes and the BR2, BR4 and BR1 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Beckenham, Orpington and Chislehurst.
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.
