Car park lighting in Alness
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Alness and the Highlands and Islands. New columns in Alness need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Local car park lighting in Alness
We programme car park works in Alness around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Older columns in Alness sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
We cover the whole of Alness, including the IV17, IV16 and IV18 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Invergordon, Evanton and Cromarty.
We cover Alness by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Highlands and Islands, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.

Alness FAQs
Who does the work in Alness?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
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.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Alness?
Fire safety duties come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006. For new lighting, Section 6 of the Scottish building standards sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
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.
