Local emergency lighting installation in Invergordon

Exit signs in Invergordon premises need to be visible from the route, which sometimes means adding directional signs at changes of direction.

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

Invergordon sits within the Highlands and Islands. We work throughout the IV18 and IV17 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Alness, Cromarty and Evanton.

We cover Invergordon 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.
