LED lighting upgrades in Carluke
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Carluke businesses we survey still have a mix of T8 battens, 600×600 fluorescent panels and the odd halogen downlight. Replacing them with complete LED luminaires usually cuts lighting energy by a third to a half.

Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Carluke bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Carluke now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Carluke sits within Lanarkshire. We work throughout the ML8 and ML2 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Wishaw, Lanark and Larkhall.

Carluke FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Carluke?
Most surveys in Carluke 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 remove the old fittings in Carluke?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Who does the work in Carluke?
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.
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.
