Things to check in Southall
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.
Re-use
Equipment that is still serviceable can sometimes be relocated; ask us to assess it.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Southall 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.
