Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Kent are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Budgeting
A fixed annual cost and early warning of units nearing end of life.
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.
