Before you book in Ballymena
Working hours
Most Ballymena businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
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.
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.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Ballymena 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.
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).
