Before you book in Lowestoft
Old refrigerant
Systems still on R22 cannot legally be topped up with virgin or recycled R22. Repairs on these are limited — replacement is often the realistic option.
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.
Refrigerant leaks
Topping up without finding the leak is a false economy and, for systems above the threshold, a breach of F-gas leak repair duties.
Working hours
Most Lowestoft businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
