Points to plan for in Clacton-on-Sea
Space
Units need space in the ceiling void or a plant area with access for filter changes.
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.
Filters
Filters must be changed regularly to keep air flow and air quality up.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Clacton-on-Sea are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
