Local emergency lighting testing in Southwell
Many Southwell businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.
Where Southwell buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.
We cover the whole of Southwell, including the NG25 postcode district, and nearby places such as Lowdham, Newark on Trent and North Muskham.
