Rayleigh FAQs
Can you work out of hours in Rayleigh?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Rayleigh offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Rayleigh?
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.
How quickly can you survey in Rayleigh?
Most surveys in Rayleigh can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Can lighting help our CCTV?
Yes. Even, well-aimed white light with good colour rendering gives cameras clearer images than patchy, glaring lights.
