Local office lighting in Pentwyn
We usually phase office work in Pentwyn over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Offices in Pentwyn range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.
Our teams travel to Pentwyn from across South Glamorgan. Typical nearby jobs include Trowbridge, Rhiwbina and Cardiff, so we can often combine survey visits.
