Blocked trays are a common cause of ceiling stains; regular cleaning prevents them.
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.
EC motors
Upgrading old motors to EC motors reduces electricity use and noise.
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.
