Local emergency lighting testing in Kensington

If fittings in your Kensington 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 Kensington buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.

Kensington is a town with plenty of offices, shops and units, covered by postcode districts L7, L70 and L6. We regularly work across Merseyside, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
