How we handle decommissioning in Redcar
Survey

Things to check in Redcar
Records
Keep the recovery and waste paperwork with your F-gas records.
Leased premises
If your Redcar 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.
Legal recovery
Recovery of F-gas refrigerant must be done by certified engineers; venting is an offence.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Redcar 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.
