Local points to consider
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.
Working hours
Most Cheltenham businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
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 Cheltenham are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
