Welwyn Garden City FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Welwyn Garden City?
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.
Do you cover all of Welwyn Garden City?
Yes. We work across Welwyn Garden City and the AL8, AL7 and AL6 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Welwyn, Hatfield and Knebworth.
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.
