Things to check in Hailsham

Future use

Allow for growth in occupancy or IT load.

Access and parking

Town-centre jobs in Hailsham 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.

Diversity

Not every room peaks at once; good design accounts for diversity so central plant is not oversized.

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.
