Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Coatbridge are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Operator duty
The legal duty sits with the operator — the person or business with actual control over the equipment.
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.
