Points to plan for in Camden Town
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
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.
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
Working hours
Most Camden Town businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
