Report a lighting fault on stairs or close

If you live in a council-owned or council-shared building or block of flats, report a lighting fault on a stairs or close to us.

Events
Who can report it

You can report this if you are a council tenant or you’re a private homeowner in a council-shared building.

What you can use this for
Before you report it to us

If the lights or power are not working on the stairs or communal areas of your building, check if other people in your building or street are affected as well. 

If it’s an electrical power outage in your area, phone Scottish Power Energy Networks on 105 to report the issue. 

If the lighting issue just affects communal areas of your building, report it to us. 

Do not it attempt to fix the problem. It is not safe to investigate a power supply, switch, socket, or light that is not working.
