Edinburgh FAQs

Is the price fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.

Which rules apply to lighting work in Edinburgh?

Fire safety duties come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006. For new lighting, Section 6 of the Scottish building standards sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.

Do you cover all of Edinburgh?

Yes. We work across Edinburgh and the EH2, EH3 and EH1 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Granton and Trinity, Leith and Morningside, Braid Hill and Swanston.

Do you cover more than one site?

Yes. Multi-site contracts are planned so each site has the same records and test regime.
