Our coverage in Blackheath
Blackheath sits within London's dense commercial fabric: shopfronts, offices above, studios and venues, where outdoor unit positions and access need careful planning.

How a visit in Blackheath works
Asset check
We record each system's refrigerant type and charge and calculate its CO2e.

The engineer checks joints, valves, components and operating data for signs of leakage.
Record
Results are recorded and kept on your F-gas log for at least five years.
What to think about in Blackheath
Repairs
If a leak is found it must be repaired without undue delay and re-checked within one month.
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.
Certified engineers
Leak checks must be done by an engineer holding the right F-gas certification.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Blackheath 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.
Premises we work in around Blackheath
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
