Car park lighting in Burton
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Older columns in Burton sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Local car park lighting in Burton
Footpaths from Burton car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Many car parks around Burton 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.
We cover the whole of Burton, including the LN1, LN2 and LN6 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Lincoln, Nettleham and Waddington.
