Office lighting in Monmouth
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Monmouth and Gwent. For office lighting in Monmouth 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.
Local office lighting in Monmouth
Reception areas in Monmouth often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Meeting rooms are where Monmouth 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.
Our teams travel to Monmouth from across Gwent. Typical nearby jobs include Coleford, Lydney and Gwehelog Fawr, so we can often combine survey visits.

Monmouth FAQs
Do you cover all of Monmouth?
Yes. We work across Monmouth and the NP25 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Coleford, Lydney and Gwehelog Fawr.
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 Monmouth?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, the Welsh Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
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.
