If fittings in your Sandbach premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.

Sandbach FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Sandbach?
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.
Do you cover all of Sandbach?
Yes. We work across Sandbach and the CW11, CW1 and CW4 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Holmes Chapel, Middlewich and Crewe.
Do you remove the old fittings in Sandbach?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
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.
