Car park lighting in Earswick
What we do in Earswick: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Earswick 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.
Local car park lighting in Earswick
Older columns in Earswick sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Footpaths from Earswick car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Our teams travel to Earswick from across North Yorkshire. Typical nearby jobs include Rawcliffe, York and Upper Poppleton, so we can often combine survey visits.
