Things to check in Wellingborough
Noise
Outdoor unit noise is designed in from the start, not fixed afterwards.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Future use
Allow for growth in occupancy or IT load.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Wellingborough 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.
