Conservation areas

Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Heckmondwike are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.

Re-use

Equipment that is still serviceable can sometimes be relocated; ask us to assess it.

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.

Types of premises we cover in Heckmondwike
