Local points to consider
Warranty
Manufacturer warranties often require servicing at set intervals by a competent engineer. Keep the reports.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Darwen 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.
Access
High-level units or roof plant may need towers or roof access arrangements, which we plan in advance.
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.
