Local external and security lighting in Paignton
Business units in Paignton often have old SON floodlights over the yard and halogen bulkheads by the doors. LED replacements use far less power and come on instantly.
On Paignton estates with homes nearby, we choose low-glare optics and aim fittings down to keep light where it is needed.
We cover the whole of Paignton, including the TQ3, TQ4 and TQ2 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Torquay, Brixham and Totnes.

Paignton FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Paignton?
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.
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.
Who does the work in Paignton?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
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.
