Things to check in Solihull
Heat recovery
Bringing in cold air in winter costs energy. Heat recovery units reclaim much of it.
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.
Fire
Ducts passing through fire-rated walls or floors need fire dampers.
Working hours
Most Solihull businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
