Points to plan for in Stockton-on-Tees
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.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Stockton-on-Tees often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
Repeat failures
If a system has failed several times, we compare the cost of repair against replacement.
Leased premises
If your Stockton-on-Tees premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
