LED lighting upgrades in Swansea
What we do in Swansea: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Swansea bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Swansea
We quote Swansea LED upgrades as a fixed price with a fitting schedule, so you can see exactly what is being replaced, where, and what it should save.
In Swansea 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.
Our teams travel to Swansea from across West Glamorgan. Typical nearby jobs include Sketty, Penderry and Llansamlet, so we can often combine survey visits.
