Before you book in Falmouth
Records
Keep the recovery and waste paperwork with your F-gas records.
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.
Dilapidations
Agree with your landlord what must be removed and what can stay.
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.
