Office lighting in Hexham
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Hexham and Northumberland. If your Hexham office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Local office lighting in Hexham
Reception areas in Hexham often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Many Hexham office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
Hexham sits within Northumberland. We work throughout the NE46 and NE45 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Corbridge, Broomhaugh and Riding and Allendale.

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.

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.
Hexham 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.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Hexham?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Can you work out of hours in Hexham?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Hexham offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
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.
