Car park lighting in Caistor
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Older columns in Caistor sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Local car park lighting in Caistor
Many car parks around Caistor 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.
New columns in Caistor need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Our teams travel to Caistor from across Lincolnshire. Typical nearby jobs include Bigby, Broughton and Linwood, so we can often combine survey visits.
