Local emergency lighting testing in Coleford
Many Coleford businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.
Where Coleford buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.
Our teams travel to Coleford from across Gloucestershire. Typical nearby jobs include Monmouth, Lydney and Littledean, so we can often combine survey visits.
