Tavistock FAQs
Who does the work in Tavistock?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
Can you work out of hours in Tavistock?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Tavistock offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
How quickly can you survey in Tavistock?
Most surveys in Tavistock can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Why is the annual test done out of hours?
After a full-duration test the batteries need time to recharge, so the building is less protected for a while. Testing at the end of the day avoids that risk while people are inside.
