Points to plan for in Hoddesdon
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
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.
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Hoddesdon are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
