Points to plan for in Sudbury
Fire
Ducts passing through fire-rated walls or floors need fire dampers.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Sudbury are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Noise
Fans and grilles are selected and attenuated to keep noise down.
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.
