Points to plan for in Northolt
Re-use
Equipment that is still serviceable can sometimes be relocated; ask us to assess it.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Northolt 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.
Legal recovery
Recovery of F-gas refrigerant must be done by certified engineers; venting is an offence.
Leased premises
If your Northolt 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.
