Car park lighting in Scarborough
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Footpaths from Scarborough car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Local car park lighting in Scarborough
Many car parks around Scarborough 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 Scarborough need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Scarborough sits within North Yorkshire. We work throughout the YO12, YO11 and YO13 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Stainton Dale, Muston and Snainton.

Scarborough FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Scarborough?
Most surveys in Scarborough 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.
Do you remove the old fittings in Scarborough?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
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.
