Where we work around Crowborough

That includes premises in TN6 and the surrounding districts. Nearby, we also cover Royal Tunbridge Wells (about 11 km), Uckfield (about 11 km) and East Grinstead (about 14 km). The legal duty sits with whoever controls the equipment, so tenants and landlords in Crowborough should agree who arranges F-gas leak checks.

If a leak is found it must be repaired without undue delay and re-checked within one month.
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.
Certified engineers
Leak checks must be done by an engineer holding the right F-gas certification.

Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Crowborough are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
