Working in Ross-on-Wye
In a town like Ross-on-Wye, a single wall unit for a shop or a cassette for a surgery makes a real difference in summer. Gloucester is about 23 km away.
That includes premises in HR9 and the surrounding districts. We also work in nearby Ledbury, Hereford and Gloucester. In Ross-on-Wye, outdoor unit positions are often the deciding factor: a rear flat roof or yard is usually straightforward, while a front elevation may need landlord or planning consent first.
