What to think about in Tynemouth
Legal recovery
Recovery of F-gas refrigerant must be done by certified engineers; venting is an offence.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Records
Keep the recovery and waste paperwork with your F-gas records.
Working hours
Most Tynemouth businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
