Local office lighting in Downham
Meeting rooms are where Downham offices waste most light. Presence detectors that switch off after a set time pay back quickly in rooms that sit empty for half the day.
We usually phase office work in Downham over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Our teams travel to Downham from across Cambridgeshire. Typical nearby jobs include Ely, Soham and Chatteris, so we can often combine survey visits.

Downham 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.
How quickly can you survey in Downham?
Most surveys in Downham 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.
Who does the work in Downham?
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.
Do we need sensors in an office?
They are worth it in meeting rooms, toilets, kitchens and stores, where lights are often left on. Daylight dimming along windows also saves energy in perimeter zones.
