LED lighting upgrades in Wigan
What we do in Wigan: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Wigan bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Wigan
For an LED upgrade in Wigan we start by counting fittings and running hours, because payback depends far more on how long lights are on than on the price of the fittings.
Where ceilings in Wigan offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Our teams travel to Wigan from across Greater Manchester. Typical nearby jobs include Hindley, Ashton in Makerfield and Westhoughton, so we can often combine survey visits.
