What to think about in St Andrews
Downtime
Each unit is out of action for about an hour while it is cleaned.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Grease
Units near kitchens need cleaning more often, and sometimes relocating.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around St Andrews are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.

A musty smell usually comes from mould or bacteria in the coil, tray or drain. A deep clean and drain treatment normally removes it.
