| Plumbing & Central Heating Systems
Our team of Gas Safe
registered heating engineers are specialists in the installation,
servicing and repair of gas central heating, solar powered systems and
underfloor heating. If you have an
existing system which you are looking to upgrade then you will find
that central heating systems have evolved a lot over the past few years
and there are many new choices that were not previously available.
This is great - but can make choosing the right system confusing. We
are happy to offer impartial advice on the choices available, whether
you are considering an upgrade or a new system. |

units have been installed into offices, server rooms, classrooms,

maintaining it to peak efficiency.

environmental matters, we take the responsibility extremely seriously.
A particularly strong emphasis is placed on the safe handling of
refrigerants by our engineers and on the correct procedures for
carrying out piping and brazing work
|
 | Maintenance & Servicing
It is important to highlight the difference that planned and regular
maintenance can make. Prevention reduces breakdowns and the necessity
for emergency call outs. A proactive maintenance schedule is a cost
effective way to keep control of budgets which are crucial, as we
become more dependant on increasing technology and diverse uses of
equipment in the home or place of business.
Service and maintenance contacts are available for short and the long term, tailored to your specific needs.

| Fire Detection Systems
Whatever
the size and complexity of the fire detection system - either networked
or a stand alone system - for small, large, single or multiple sites,
Diligent Developments Ltd has the required expertise.
When
a fire alarm installation is required the customer or organisation is
often faced with a bewildering array of decisions. For example, is
compliance with British Standards necessary? If so, is it B.S.5839 Part
1 or Part 6? Is B.S.6266 or B.S. 7273 relevant? What category of system
is called for? M,P or L? Type 1, 2 or 3? What grade of system is
required? A - F? Is the system to alert the fire brigade and if so by
what method? We can assist with all of these questions and many others. |

- Slating: Natural and man-made
- Tiling: Concrete and clay. Both plain and large formats.

|
| Damp Proofing
The problem of rising damp can arise for various reasons - the failure of an existing
damp proof course (dpc), bridging due to the raising of external ground or internal floor
levels, or in older buildings, the complete absence of a damp proof
course.
It is important to note that the provision of a barrier against
rising damp will only prevent further moisture rising from the
ground and that all other sources of dampness must be eliminated as
well. Give us a call today for a FREE quotation.
|
 | Sound/Heat Insulation
Insulation can be used for
thermal, acoustic and fire insulation in ceilings, walls, floors and
roofs. Increasing the energy efficiency in residential buildings
involves improvements to the building envelope.
Inside buildings, the recommended maximum average for indoor background
noise levels is 35 dB. In practice many tenants suffer from noise above
this level because their building is not sufficiently sound proofed.
We can find the best thermal, acoustic and fire solutions to make both new and existing buildings sustainable, more energy
efficient and help to protect the environment from the effects of
climate change.
|
 | Sound Testing & Air Pressure Testing
The New Building Regulations Approved Document E, (2003 Edition) was implemented on
1st July 2003 (with an amendment in 2004). Its primary objective is to raise
the standard of sound insulation in all dwellings to counter the rising level
of complaints received about noise transmission. Noise nuisance has a
detrimental effect on a homeowner or resident's quality of life so the aim is
to improve the sound insulation both between and within dwellings, as well as
between rooms in hostels, hotels and residential homes. The scope has been
extended to cover reverberation in common parts of blocks of flats and acoustic
conditions in schools.
We carry out sound inspection testing and air pressure testing on new and existing dwellings, commercial and residential.
