Coordination
Ceiling, lighting, sprinkler and electrical layouts are coordinated early.
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.
Diversity
Not every room peaks at once; good design accounts for diversity so central plant is not oversized.
Leased premises
If your Stockport premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
