Newport FAQs
Can you work out of hours in Newport?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Newport offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you remove the old fittings in Newport?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Do you cover all of Newport?
Yes. We work across Newport and the CB11 and CB10 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Saffron Walden, Stansted Mountfitchet and Bishops Stortford.
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.
