Local office lighting in Welwyn
Meeting rooms are where Welwyn 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 Welwyn over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
We cover the whole of Welwyn, including the AL6, AL8 and SG3 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Welwyn Garden City, Knebworth and Hatfield.

Rules that apply in Welwyn
Approved Document L (2021 edition, with 2023 amendments) asks for new general lighting to average at least 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt, or to use the LENI method. The 2026 edition raises this to more than 105 for work under it from 24 March 2027.
In Great Britain, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
Privately rented commercial property in England generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.
Welwyn FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Welwyn?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Who does the work in Welwyn?
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.
How quickly can you survey in Welwyn?
Most surveys in Welwyn 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.
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.
