Repairs
If a leak is found it must be repaired without undue delay and re-checked within one month.
Leased premises
If your Aylesbury 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.
Certified engineers
Leak checks must be done by an engineer holding the right F-gas certification.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
