Watlington FAQs
Do you cover all of Watlington?
Yes. We work across Watlington and the OX49 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Chinnor, Thame and Wallingford.
Can you work out of hours in Watlington?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Watlington offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you remove the old fittings in Watlington?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
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.
