In short: glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. We usually phase office work in Wallington over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Local office lighting in Wallington
Many Wallington office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
If your Wallington office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Wallington sits within Greater London. We work throughout the SM6, SM5 and SM1 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Carshalton, Sutton and South Croydon.

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.
Panels or linear pendants?
Recessed 600×600 panels suit suspended grid ceilings and are the simplest swap. Linear suspended fittings suit exposed soffits and can light both the desk and the ceiling, which makes a space feel brighter.
