What to think about in Gainsborough
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.
Water systems
Fan coils depend on the chilled and heating water systems; we coordinate with whoever maintains the central plant.
Working hours
Most Gainsborough businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
