Overseal FAQs
Do you cover all of Overseal?
Yes. We work across Overseal and the DE12, DE11 and LE65 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Swadlincote, Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Burton upon Trent.
Do you remove the old fittings in Overseal?
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.
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.
