Car park lighting in Rhiwbina
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Older columns in Rhiwbina sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Local car park lighting in Rhiwbina
New columns in Rhiwbina need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Many car parks around Rhiwbina 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.
Rhiwbina is a local centre, covered by postcode districts CF14, CF23 and CF24. We regularly work across South Glamorgan, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
