Local points to consider
Replacement logistics
Large AHU replacements need craneage, road closures and careful programming.
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.
Energy
Fan upgrades and better controls can cut energy use significantly on older units.
Working hours
Most Merseyside businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
