How are prices set in County Down?
Our guide prices are adjusted for regional labour costs. After a survey you get a fixed price for the agreed scope.
Should external lights be on all night?
Not necessarily. Photocells with timers or presence sensors can keep routes lit when people are around and dim or switch off later, saving energy and reducing light spill.
Can lighting help our CCTV?
Yes. Even, well-aimed white light with good colour rendering gives cameras clearer images than patchy, glaring lights.
