LED lighting upgrades in Fraserburgh
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Available across Fraserburgh and Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. In Fraserburgh warehouses and workshops the biggest savings come from swapping metal halide high bays for LED, where a 400 W lamp plus gear can often be replaced by a fitting drawing 150 W or less.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Fraserburgh
Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Fraserburgh now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Where ceilings in Fraserburgh offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Fraserburgh sits within Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. We work throughout the AB43 postcode district and surrounding places, including Peterhead, Macduff and Turriff.

Rules that apply in Fraserburgh
Standard 6.5 of the Scottish building standards covers efficient, controllable lighting. The non-domestic guidance uses 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt for general lighting, or LENI.
In Great Britain, including Scotland, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
Scotland does not use the England and Wales EPC E letting rule. Instead, some non-domestic buildings over 1,000 m² need an action plan when sold or let, under Section 63 regulations.
Fraserburgh FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Fraserburgh?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Who does the work in Fraserburgh?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
How quickly can you survey in Fraserburgh?
Most surveys in Fraserburgh 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.
Is it worth replacing fluorescent tubes with LED?
Usually, yes. Common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by GB ecodesign rules from September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended in February 2024, so replacements are getting harder to source. LED fittings typically use 30–60% less energy for the same light.
