LED lighting upgrades in Bellingham
What we do in Bellingham: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Bellingham bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Bellingham
Where ceilings in Bellingham offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
In Bellingham 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.
We cover the whole of Bellingham, including the NE48 postcode district, and nearby places such as Elsdon, Hexham and Haltwhistle.
