Strathaven FAQs
Do you cover all of Strathaven?
Yes. We work across Strathaven and the ML10 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Larkhall, Hamilton and East Kilbride.
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.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Strathaven?
Fire safety duties come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006. For new lighting, Section 6 of the Scottish building standards 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.
