Canning Town FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Canning Town?
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 Canning Town?
Most surveys in Canning Town 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 Canning Town?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Canning Town 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.
