Emergency lighting testing in Yarmouth

In short: monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Yarmouth buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.

Local emergency lighting testing in Yarmouth

If fittings in your Yarmouth premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.

Where Yarmouth buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.

We cover the whole of Yarmouth, including the PO41, PO40 and PO39 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Totland, Lymington and Denny Lodge.

We cover Yarmouth by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Isle of Wight, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.

Yarmouth FAQs

Do you remove the old fittings in Yarmouth?

Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.

Who does the work in Yarmouth?

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.

Is the price fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.

Can we do the monthly tests ourselves?

Yes. A trained, competent person can do the monthly flick test and record it. Many businesses do this in-house and bring us in for the annual test and repairs.
