Local emergency lighting testing in Mallaig
If fittings in your Mallaig premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Mallaig buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
Our teams travel to Mallaig from across the Highlands and Islands. Typical nearby jobs include Arisaig, Isle of Eigg and Isle of Rum, so we can often combine survey visits.
We cover Mallaig by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Highlands and Islands, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.
