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