Jun 16, 2019 Report
I went all over Brighton searching for a non-standard light tube for my bathroom, a round tube. I almost gave up. CEF told me to go to a Co called SELS, I then found out SELS is actually now part of ABS. I'd almost given up! I was kicking myself for having installed non-standard (I didn't realise at the time) light fittings. But, when I spoke to ABS on the phone, they not only knew what I was after, they had it in-stock and they delivered it to me the same day!!! Absolute amazing service, couldn't believe it!
