Our Policy:

• To offer a Quality Service at a competitive price and to the consumer's requirements and needs
• To use local labour and materials as much as possible
• To implement Sustainable Methods of Construction (PV Photo Voltaic, Heat Pumps, Rain Water Harvesting, Heat Recovery Ventilation)

Sustainable Solutions
We have experience and understanding of various sustainable methods of construction and can offer a bespoke service for all project and budget requirements.

These services include: Ground and Air Source Heat Pumps, Solar Photovoltaic Cells and Solar Heating, Rainwater Harvesting, Mechanical Heat Recovery Ventilation system (MHRV), Under Floor Heating, and many more.

A Brief Guide to the main types of sustainable systems that are commonly used in Residential and Commercial Construction Projects.

Heat Pumps
There are two basic types of Heat Pumps, Air Source and Ground Source. They create heating by taking heat from either the air or ground and transferring it to the heating system. They do this by using the same principles as a refrigerator.

Solar Panels
There are two types of Solar Panel systems, Photo Voltaic (Solar PV) and Solar Water Heating. Solar PV is a system that Utilise the suns solar rays to generate free electricity. It relies on the light rather than the heat to generate power through the photovoltaic cells in the panels on the roof. This means that they work even through winter and also on cloudy days.

Rain water Harvesting Units
Allows rainwater to be collected from the gutters or surface gullies in a holding tank and it can be utilised for flushing toilet cisterns, or watering the garden, cleaning cars etc.

Heat Recovery
This is a mechanical ventilation system that draws in fresh air from the outside of a building and with a series of ducts pushes it around to an outlet in each room to provide new fresh air and another vent in the room draws out air and back to the mechanical unit and then back out side. It ensures constant air circulation.
