External and security lighting FAQs for Somerset
How are prices set in Somerset?
Our guide prices are adjusted for regional labour costs. After a survey you get a fixed price for the agreed scope.

Approved Document L sets the efficiency that new lighting in Somerset must meet. We check fittings against it at design stage and keep the evidence for building control.

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.

As a budget, an LED floodlight costs around £200–£500 installed, depending on output, mounting height and access, excluding VAT.
