Whether you manage a single commercial unit or a large multi-site portfolio, our team provides a fully managed, low-disruption service from survey to completion.
Understanding the Retrofit Process for Commercial Properties
Retrofitting is the process of replacing older, inefficient lighting components with newer technology while retaining the existing fittings, wiring layouts, and structural elements already in place. Rather than stripping out an entire system, retrofitting works within your current infrastructure, which means no unnecessary building works, no extended closures, and significantly reduced material costs. For property managers and business owners across Wiveliscombe, Somerset, this represents a practical and commercially sound approach to improving lighting performance. Nationwide Facilities Management has delivered retrofit programmes across a wide range of commercial settings, and our teams understand how to upgrade lighting systems efficiently, safely, and with the least possible impact on daily operations.


Cutting Energy Costs and Improving the Working Environment
One of the most compelling reasons for businesses to invest in a commercial lighting retrofit is the direct and measurable impact it has on energy expenditure. Modern lighting technologies can dramatically reduce the amount of electricity consumed by your lighting circuits, translating into lower utility bills month after month. Beyond the financial savings, improved lighting quality has a well-documented effect on working conditions, with better colour rendering, reduced glare, and more consistent illumination all contributing to a more comfortable and productive environment for building occupants. Nationwide FM works closely with Wiveliscombe, Somerset businesses to design retrofit solutions that strike the right balance between energy performance, light quality, and the specific needs of each space, from open-plan offices to warehouses and retail floors.
Presence Sensors, Daylight Harvesting, and Intelligent Control Systems
Smart lighting controls are an essential component of any modern commercial lighting upgrade, and Nationwide Facilities Management routinely incorporates them into retrofit programmes delivered across Wiveliscombe, Somerset and the wider region. Presence and motion sensors ensure that lighting in unoccupied spaces is automatically extinguished, removing one of the most persistent sources of wasted energy in commercial buildings. Daylight sensors work alongside artificial lighting to maintain consistent illumination levels throughout the day, dimming or brightening the artificial contribution in response to the amount of natural light available. Together, these technologies can contribute meaningfully to overall energy reduction targets and support businesses in demonstrating their commitment to sustainability. Our control systems are scalable, straightforward to manage, and can be configured to suit the specific occupancy patterns and operational requirements of your building.


When Existing Fittings Need Replacing: High-Bay and Low-Bay Luminaires
For commercial and industrial properties where existing fittings are no longer viable, high-efficiency luminaires represent the most effective path to a modern, well-lit working environment. Designed around the principles of maximising lumen output per watt, these products use precision optics and advanced engineering to deliver consistent, high-quality illumination with significantly lower energy consumption than the systems they replace. In industrial settings such as warehouses, distribution hubs, and manufacturing facilities, high-bay luminaires are specifically designed to provide uniform light distribution across large open floor areas from significant mounting heights, while low-bay alternatives serve spaces with lower ceiling configurations. 24 Nationwide has extensive experience specifying and installing high-efficiency luminaires throughout Wiveliscombe, Somerset and across the wider region, and our team will ensure that every product recommended is matched precisely to the demands of your environment, from initial survey through to final sign-off.
