Local emergency lighting testing in Wokingham
Annual emergency lighting tests in Wokingham are best booked for late afternoon or evening, so batteries can recharge overnight before people are back in.
Where Wokingham buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.
Our teams travel to Wokingham from across Berkshire. Typical nearby jobs include Crowthorne, Bracknell and Lower Earley, so we can often combine survey visits.

Wokingham FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Wokingham?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Wokingham?
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.
Why is the annual test done out of hours?
After a full-duration test the batteries need time to recharge, so the building is less protected for a while. Testing at the end of the day avoids that risk while people are inside.
