Working in Marlow

That includes premises in SL7 and the surrounding districts. We also work in nearby Maidenhead, High Wycombe and Slough. In Marlow we work with offices, shops and hospitality premises, from a single room to a whole floor; each job starts with a heat load check rather than a guess from the floor area.

Things to check in Marlow
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
Working hours
Most Marlow businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Resilience
A single unit is a single point of failure. N+1 means one unit can fail without the room overheating.
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.
