Before you book in Eccles
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Eccles are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
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.
