Things to check in Chester-le-Street
Record keeping
Operators must keep F-gas records for equipment above the threshold. A contract keeps these complete.
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.
Budgeting
A fixed annual cost and early warning of units nearing end of life.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
