Where we work around Rothesay
In a town like Rothesay, a single wall unit for a shop or a cassette for a surgery makes a real difference in summer.
That includes premises in PA20 and the surrounding districts. Buildings across Argyll and Bute range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.

Before you book in Rothesay

Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Rothesay 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.
Working hours
Most Rothesay businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

- Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.

Compliance in Scotland: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
