Local points to consider

Diversity

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

Working hours

Most Kendal businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

Future use

Allow for growth in occupancy or IT load.

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.
