Local emergency lighting installation in Avoch

We often find dark spots in Avoch buildings where partitions have moved since the original emergency lighting was installed.

In Avoch, as elsewhere, the person responsible for fire safety must make sure escape routes are lit if the power fails. A clear design and certificate is the simplest evidence for your fire risk assessment.

Avoch sits within the Highlands and Islands. We work throughout the IV9, IV10 and IV8 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Inverness, Invergordon and Evanton.

We cover Avoch by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Highlands and Islands, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.
