Car park lighting in Redbourn
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Redbourn and Hertfordshire. New columns in Redbourn need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Local car park lighting in Redbourn
Many car parks around Redbourn 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 Redbourn sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Our teams travel to Redbourn from across Hertfordshire. Typical nearby jobs include St Albans, Harpenden and Sandridge, so we can often combine survey visits.

Redbourn FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Redbourn?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Redbourn?
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.
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.
