Privately rented commercial property in England generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.
Abbotsham FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Abbotsham?
Most surveys in Abbotsham 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.
Do you cover all of Abbotsham?
Yes. We work across Abbotsham and the EX39 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Bideford, Little Torrington and Braunton.
Can you work out of hours in Abbotsham?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Abbotsham offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
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.
