Before you book in Gloucester
Summer bypass
A bypass avoids warming incoming air in summer.
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.
Space
Units need space in the ceiling void or a plant area with access for filter changes.
Working hours
Most Gloucester businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
