Local emergency lighting testing in Pimlico
We leave Pimlico clients with a completed log book and certificate that can sit straight alongside their fire risk assessment.
Where Pimlico buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.
For Pimlico premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
