Office lighting in Oswestry
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Oswestry and Shropshire. We usually phase office work in Oswestry over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Local office lighting in Oswestry
If your Oswestry office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Meeting rooms are where Oswestry 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 Oswestry from across Shropshire. Typical nearby jobs include Oswestry Rural, Ellesmere and Llangollen, so we can often combine survey visits.

Oswestry FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Oswestry?
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 Oswestry?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Oswestry offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
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.
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.
