Heating, cooling pipework and plant for offices and factories
Offices run on fan coil units and the heating and chilled pipework behind them. Factory units need heating and hot water plant that is sized for the building and left ready for whatever the unit does next. We do both, directly or as a subcontractor.

Offices: fan coils and the pipework behind them
Most office heating and cooling comes through fan coil units fed by heating and chilled water pipework. When a floor is refitted, the pipework gets extended, rerouted or replaced, and the units get moved to suit the new layout.
That work happens in an occupied building more often than not, so it is planned floor by floor with isolations agreed in advance.
Factories and industrial units: plant that fits the building
A factory unit needs heating and hot water plant sized for the space and the people in it, with pipework run to suit the layout. Where the unit is going to change, connections can be left capped and labelled so the next phase does not mean starting again.

Questions about offices and factories
Do you move or replace fan coil units in an office refit?
Yes. The heating and chilled pipework gets extended, rerouted or replaced to suit the new layout, and the units are moved or changed with it, floor by floor in an occupied building.
Can you leave connections ready for a future phase in a factory unit?
Yes. Where the unit is going to change, connections can be left capped and labelled so the next phase does not mean starting again.
Can you work while the building stays open?
Yes, and most commercial work is done that way. It means temporary provision where it is needed, isolations agreed in advance, and being straight about what has to happen out of hours.
Do you work as a subcontractor?
Yes. Work is taken directly from the building owner or manager, and as a subcontractor to mechanical contractors and main contractors. Both are normal here.
Can you price against a quote I already have?
Yes. Send us the quote you have, with the prices blanked out if you prefer, and we will price the same job against it. That goes for a domestic boiler as much as a commercial plant room. If the quote you have is a fair one, you will be told that too.
How far do you travel for commercial work?
Further than for domestic. Larger commercial jobs take us across the South East and into London. For small jobs, we stay close to Eastbourne.
