Our coverage in Sutton
Sutton sits within London's dense commercial fabric: shopfronts, offices above, studios and venues, where outdoor unit positions and access need careful planning.
Postcode districts we cover in Sutton include CB6, CR44, CT15, DN6, DN22 and IP12. Neighbouring towns we cover include Carshalton, Banstead and Ewell. In Sutton, outdoor unit positions are often the deciding factor: a rear flat roof or yard is usually straightforward, while a front elevation may need landlord or planning consent first.
What the job covers

Before you book in Sutton
Resilience
A single unit is a single point of failure. N+1 means one unit can fail without the room overheating.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
Leased premises
If your Sutton premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.

Yes. Alongside Sutton, we also cover Carshalton, Banstead and Ewell. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Sutton?
All of them, including CB6, CR44, CT15 and DN6. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
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.
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.
