Office lighting in Calstock
What we do in Calstock: glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. We usually phase office work in Calstock over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Local office lighting in Calstock
For office lighting in Calstock we design to about 500 lux on desks, as BS EN 12464-1 suggests, and keep glare off screens by choosing the right optics rather than simply adding more light.
Many Calstock office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
We cover the whole of Calstock, including the PL18, PL17 and PL19 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Callington, Tavistock and Horrabridge.

Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
How quickly can you survey in Calstock?
Most surveys in Calstock 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 outside office hours?
Yes. Most office projects are done in the evening or at weekends, a zone at a time, so staff come back to a working floor.
