Many Skeeby businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.
Where Skeeby buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.
For Skeeby premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
