LED lighting upgrades in Rustington
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Rustington 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.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Rustington
In Rustington 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.
For an LED upgrade in Rustington we start by counting fittings and running hours, because payback depends far more on how long lights are on than on the price of the fittings.
Rustington sits within West Sussex. We work throughout the BN16, BN17 and BN12 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Littlehampton, Arundel and Worthing.

Rustington FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Rustington?
Most surveys in Rustington 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 Rustington?

Who does the work in Rustington?
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.
