Things to check in Birmingham
EC motors
Upgrading old motors to EC motors reduces electricity use and noise.
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.
Condensate
Blocked trays are a common cause of ceiling stains; regular cleaning prevents them.
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.
Premises we work in around Birmingham
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
