Car park lighting in Evanton
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. New columns in Evanton need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Local car park lighting in Evanton
Footpaths from Evanton car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Many car parks around Evanton 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.
For Evanton premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
We cover Evanton 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.

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.

Often, yes. If the columns are structurally sound, swapping the heads for LED lanterns is much cheaper than new columns.
