Leased premises
If your Rochdale premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Condensate
Blocked trays are a common cause of ceiling stains; regular cleaning prevents them.

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.
