Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Looe bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Looe now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Our teams travel to Looe from across Cornwall. Typical nearby jobs include Fowey, Liskeard and Lostwithiel, so we can often combine survey visits.
