Local external and security lighting in Castleton
For Castleton sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.
On Castleton estates with homes nearby, we choose low-glare optics and aim fittings down to keep light where it is needed.
Our teams travel to Castleton from across Dorset. Typical nearby jobs include Yeovil, Mudford and Templecombe, so we can often combine survey visits.

Castleton FAQs
Can you work out of hours in Castleton?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Castleton offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Who does the work in Castleton?
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.
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.
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.
