From enquiry to handover in Chatham
Measure the load
We read the IT and UPS load and allow for growth.
Design resilience
Duty/standby units, changeover control and power supplies are designed together.
Install with minimal risk
Work around live equipment is planned with your IT team and kept clean. In Chatham we agree timings around your opening hours.
Test failover
We test the changeover and alarms before handover.
Local points to consider
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
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.
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Chatham 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.

Yes. Alongside Chatham, we also cover Gillingham, Rochester and Strood. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Chatham?
All of them, including ME4. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
How often should server room units be serviced?
At least twice a year, because they run continuously. Filters may need cleaning more often in dusty rooms.
Why not use the office air conditioning?
Office systems switch off out of hours and are sized for people, not equipment that runs 24/7. A dedicated system is more reliable and cheaper to run.
