What we do in Tynemouth: glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. We usually phase office work in Tynemouth over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Local office lighting in Tynemouth
For office lighting in Tynemouth 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.
If your Tynemouth office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Tynemouth sits within Tyne and Wear. We work throughout the NE30, NE29 and NE33 postcode districts and surrounding places, including North Shields, South Shields and Whitley Bay.

Tynemouth FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Tynemouth?
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.
Do you remove the old fittings in Tynemouth?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
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.
Can you work outside office hours?
Yes. Most office projects are done in the evening or at weekends, a zone at a time, so staff come back to a working floor.
