Working hours
Most Kidsgrove businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Pipe re-use
Re-use depends on pipe size, condition, cleanliness and the new refrigerant. We test before relying on it.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
