Before you book in Cumbernauld
Records
Keep the recovery and waste paperwork with your F-gas records.
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.
Dilapidations
Agree with your landlord what must be removed and what can stay.
Leased premises
If your Cumbernauld premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
