Points to plan for in Larkhall

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.

Records

Keep the recovery and waste paperwork with your F-gas records.

Access and parking

Town-centre jobs in Larkhall often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
