Read through Our Terms and Conditions

The majority of our customer installations are able to be completed within the definitions of a standard visit, where the described work is to be completed safely using direct ladder access and a standard range of materials. 

Some situations require additional costs to cover ‘non-standard’ scenarios. These scenarios are prone to additional chargeable elements to ensure the installation is completed in a safe and professional manner, these scenarios include:

Terms and Conditions

  • Hoists, Lifts, Platforms and Cranes

  • Extra Labour Requirements to Overcome Technical, Lifting or Safety Issues

  • Out of Hours Working

  • Evening Work/ Night Work

  • Specialised Equipment

  • Larger Brackets, Bespoke Mountings, Posts, Battens, Base Boards

  • Road Closure and Permits

  • Specialised Cable Management - Conduit, Trunking. Junction Boxes, and Catenary Wire

  • Site Specific H&S Induction Training

  • Lightning Conductor Installations

  • Earth Bonding Systems

  • Specialised Vehicle Hiring Charges

  • Ad Hoc Long Distance or Abnormal Travelling Allowance

These additional elements are deemed to fall outside the definition of a ‘Standard’ call, and would, therefore, be agreed and submitted to the customer on an ad hoc basis where appropriate. Due to the general complexity and technical nature of these bespoke jobs/ special sites, we reserve the right to discuss the technical requirements of such sites with the customer and then agree on any charges that affect a safe and practical solution.
