Whittingham FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Whittingham?
Most surveys in Whittingham 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.
Can you work out of hours in Whittingham?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Whittingham offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you remove the old fittings in Whittingham?
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.
