Car park lighting in Byker
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Byker and Tyne and Wear. New columns in Byker need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Local car park lighting in Byker
Footpaths from Byker car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Many car parks around Byker 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.
Byker sits within Tyne and Wear. We work throughout the NE7, NE2 and NE6 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne and Wallsend.

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.

Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
