Bala FAQs

Do you cover all of Bala?

Yes. We work across Bala and the LL23 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Corwen, Bro Machno and Ffestiniog.

Is the price fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.

How quickly can you survey in Bala?

Most surveys in Bala 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.
