LED lighting upgrades in Dronfield
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Dronfield businesses we survey still have a mix of T8 battens, 600×600 fluorescent panels and the odd halogen downlight. Replacing them with complete LED luminaires usually cuts lighting energy by a third to a half.

Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Dronfield bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Our teams travel to Dronfield from across Derbyshire. Typical nearby jobs include Nether Edge, Chesterfield and Fulwood, so we can often combine survey visits.
