Things to check in Caerphilly
Dilapidations
Agree with your landlord what must be removed and what can stay.
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.
Records
Keep the recovery and waste paperwork with your F-gas records.
Working hours
Most Caerphilly businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
