Filters

Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Hygiene
Drip trays and coils must be kept clean to avoid biological growth.

Most Buckie businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
