Social landlords need to find and fix damp and mould hazards quickly, and ventilation is usually the core of the fix. We survey homes, install continuous extract, PIV or heat recovery as needed, measure the airflow, and report per address so your asset and compliance teams have evidence of what was done.
We carry out social housing ventilation programmes across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, including Nigg, Inverurie, Fraserburgh, Westhill and Stonehaven. Prices use Scotland rates. The survey is free for new installations on the UK mainland, and the quote that follows is fixed and in writing.
