Whitstable FAQs
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.
Can you work out of hours in Whitstable?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Whitstable offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you cover all of Whitstable?
Yes. We work across Whitstable and the CT5 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Herne Bay, Canterbury and Faversham.

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.
