Office lighting in Martock
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Martock and Somerset. If your Martock office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Local office lighting in Martock
Reception areas in Martock often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
For office lighting in Martock 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.
Martock is a smaller town, covered by postcode districts TA12, TA14 and TA13. We regularly work across Somerset, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.

Martock 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 Martock?
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.
How quickly can you survey in Martock?
Most surveys in Martock 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.
