Local emergency lighting testing in Dartmouth
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Dartmouth buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.

For Dartmouth premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.

Dartmouth FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Dartmouth?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
How quickly can you survey in Dartmouth?
Most surveys in Dartmouth can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Can you work out of hours in Dartmouth?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Dartmouth offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
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.
