Dagenham FAQs
Who does the work in Dagenham?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
Do you cover all of Dagenham?
Yes. We work across Dagenham and the RM10, RM9 and RM8 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Romford, Hornchurch and Barking.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Dagenham?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
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.
