LED lighting upgrades in Farnborough
What we do in Farnborough: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Farnborough now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Farnborough
In Farnborough warehouses and workshops the biggest savings come from swapping metal halide high bays for LED, where a 400 W lamp plus gear can often be replaced by a fitting drawing 150 W or less.
Where ceilings in Farnborough offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Farnborough sits within Hampshire. We work throughout the GU14, GU16 and GU17 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Camberley, Aldershot and Fleet.

Farnborough FAQs
Can you work out of hours in Farnborough?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Farnborough offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you cover all of Farnborough?
Yes. We work across Farnborough and the GU14, GU16 and GU17 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Camberley, Aldershot and Fleet.
Do you remove the old fittings in Farnborough?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
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.
