Exeter FAQs

Do you remove the old fittings in Exeter?

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

Which rules apply to lighting work in Exeter?

Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.

Can you work out of hours in Exeter?

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

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.
