Local points to consider
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.
Working hours
Most Maldon businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
