Swanscombe FAQs
Can you work out of hours in Swanscombe?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Swanscombe offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you remove the old fittings in Swanscombe?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Do you cover all of Swanscombe?
Yes. We work across Swanscombe and the DA10, DA9 and DA11 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Grays, Gravesend and Longfield.
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.
