Markets We Serve
Lighting & Electrical Maintenance
Scheduled lighting maintenance, infrared scanning and priority emergency response.
Maintenance done on a schedule costs less than maintenance done in response to a failure. That is true of nearly every building system, and it is especially true of lighting — where the labor of getting a lift to a fixture dwarfs the cost of the lamp.
Reactive lighting service is expensive
Sending a lift and a crew for one failed fixture costs many times what group relamping costs per fixture. Scheduled service is straightforwardly cheaper.
Failures cluster
Lamps installed together fail together. Once you are past about 70% of rated life you are in a period of continuous individual failures.
Lamp disposal is regulated
Fluorescent lamps contain mercury and are regulated waste at the federal and state level. Improper disposal is a compliance exposure.
Capabilities
What we deliver in building maintenance

The economics of group relamping
Getting a lift and a crew to a fixture is the dominant cost of lighting maintenance — the lamp or driver is close to incidental. That single fact drives the entire economic argument for scheduled service over reactive service.
Replacing fixtures individually as they fail means paying the access cost every time. Replacing a whole area on a schedule based on rated life means paying it once. On a parking structure or a high-bay warehouse the difference is substantial.
- Scheduled group relamping based on rated life, not on failure
- Annual pole and fixture condition inspection
- Lowering-device inspection and servicing on high-mast poles
- Photocell, timeclock and control verification
- Emergency and egress fixture testing with documentation
- Certified lamp and ballast recycling with disposal records
- Annual infrared scanning of distribution equipment
- Condition reporting feeding a capital plan
Failures cluster, which is why reactive service is worse than it looks
Lamps installed together fail together. Once an installation passes roughly 70% of rated life you enter a period of continuous individual failures, each one triggering a separate service call at full access cost. Owners often read this as a quality problem with the product when it is simply the failure distribution behaving normally.
Scheduled replacement before that window opens converts an unpredictable stream of call-outs into one planned event.
Lamp disposal is a compliance exposure
Fluorescent lamps contain mercury and are regulated waste under federal and Colorado rules. Ballasts manufactured before 1979 may contain PCBs. Improper disposal is a liability that sits with the generator — the building owner — not with whoever carried the lamps out of the building.
We remove, transport and recycle through certified facilities and provide the disposal documentation for your compliance file.

Learn more →Emergency & Egress
Exit signage, illuminated egress paths and the documented testing that keeps them defensible.
Learn more →Common questions
How do we budget lighting maintenance across a portfolio?
Start with a condition survey establishing installed technology, age and remaining life by site. That produces a replacement schedule you can fund on a cycle rather than reacting to failures, and it identifies which sites justify conversion now versus which should simply be maintained until they are due.
What is group relamping?
Replacing all lamps in an area on a schedule based on rated life, rather than replacing each as it fails. Because the labor and lift access is the dominant cost, doing them together is substantially cheaper per fixture and eliminates the period of continuous individual failures.
Do you handle lamp recycling?
Yes. Fluorescent lamps contain mercury and are regulated waste. We remove, transport and recycle them through certified facilities and provide disposal documentation for your compliance records.
