Where we work around Antrim

That includes premises in BT41 and the surrounding districts. We also cover Ballymena, Newtownabbey and Belfast, all within easy reach of Antrim.

Things to check in Antrim
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Antrim are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the council's planning service before work is booked.
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.
Leased premises
If your Antrim premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Working hours
Most Antrim businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Compliance in Northern Ireland: refrigerant work falls under EU F-gas rules that apply in Northern Ireland, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
