Local emergency lighting testing in Ossett

Many Ossett businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.

Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Ossett buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.

Do you remove the old fittings in Ossett?

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

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 you work out of hours in Ossett?

Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Ossett offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
