Stepney FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Stepney?
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 Stepney?
Most surveys in Stepney 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.
Do you cover all of Stepney?
Yes. We work across Stepney and the E1, E1W and E3 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Limehouse, Shadwell and Bethnal Green.
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.
