Local points to consider

Noise

Outdoor unit noise is designed in from the start, not fixed afterwards.

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.

Coordination

Ceiling, lighting, sprinkler and electrical layouts are coordinated early.

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.
