Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Islington often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
Water systems
Fan coils depend on the chilled and heating water systems; we coordinate with whoever maintains the central plant.
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.
