Before you book in County Durham
Budgeting
A fixed annual cost and early warning of units nearing end of life.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in County Durham 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.
Record keeping
Operators must keep F-gas records for equipment above the threshold. A contract keeps these complete.
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.
