Tavistock FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Tavistock?
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.
Do you cover all of Tavistock?
Yes. We work across Tavistock and the PL19 and PL18 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Calstock, Horrabridge and Callington.
Can you work out of hours in Tavistock?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Tavistock 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.
