Waltham Abbey FAQs
Can you work out of hours in Waltham Abbey?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Waltham Abbey offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you remove the old fittings in Waltham Abbey?
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 Waltham Abbey?
Most surveys in Waltham Abbey 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.
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.
