Planning and permissions

In Scotland, planning conditions for outdoor units depend on the property type and location; conservation areas and listed buildings need particular care.

The survey

At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. On a survey in Banchory the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
