Planning and permissions

The survey
A survey in Clydach usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. Surveys in Clydach cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
