Tooting FAQs
Do you cover all of Tooting?
Yes. We work across Tooting and the SW17, CR4 and SW12 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Furzedown, Streatham and Mitcham.
How quickly can you survey in Tooting?
Most surveys in Tooting 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.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Tooting?
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.
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.
