LED lighting upgrades in Earswick
What we do in Earswick: 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 Earswick now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Earswick
Where ceilings in Earswick offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Earswick bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Earswick sits within North Yorkshire. We work throughout the YO32, YO30 and YO31 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Rawcliffe, York and Upper Poppleton.

Earswick FAQs

How quickly can you survey in Earswick?
Most surveys in Earswick 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.
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.
