LED lighting upgrades in Aviemore
What we do in Aviemore: 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 Aviemore now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Aviemore
In Aviemore 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 Aviemore offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Aviemore is a local centre, covered by postcode district PH22. We regularly work across the Highlands and Islands, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
We cover Aviemore by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Highlands and Islands, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.

Aviemore FAQs
Can you work out of hours in Aviemore?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Aviemore offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you cover all of Aviemore?
Yes. We work across Aviemore and the PH22 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Boat of Garten, Nethy Bridge and Grantown-on-Spey.
Who does the work in Aviemore?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
Do you just change the tubes?
We recommend replacing the whole luminaire. Retrofit LED tubes leave old ballasts and holders in place, which can fail and complicate future maintenance. A complete fitting is cleaner, more efficient and simpler to certify.
