Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Kelso are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Smells
Musty smells usually mean biological growth in the coil or tray; a deep clean and drain treatment normally cures them.
Working hours
Most Kelso businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
