Car park lighting in Sleaford
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. New columns in Sleaford need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.

Footpaths from Sleaford car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
For Sleaford retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.

Sleaford FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Sleaford?
Most surveys in Sleaford can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Sleaford?
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.
