Close to hand for Newport businesses and landlords
Newport is a small, busy market town in the north-east of Telford and Wrekin, a short drive from our base in Telford. Its long High Street is lined with independent shops, cafés, pubs, estate agents and professional offices, many in traditional brick buildings with flats or offices above. The town also has several schools, and Harper Adams University is close by, which brings agricultural and food businesses into the wider area.
Mixed-use buildings and landlord responsibilities
A lot of commercial property in Newport combines a shop or office on the ground floor with flats above. For landlords, that brings extra responsibilities. Where you provide gas appliances in the flats, an annual landlord gas safety check is a legal requirement, and our Gas Safe registered engineer can carry it out alongside servicing the commercial heating downstairs. We can also look after the shared entrances and stairways, from redecoration and repairs to emergency lighting testing by our partner electricians. We work for the landlord or managing agent as a commercial client; we do not take on private householder work.
Shops and offices on the High Street
For High Street businesses, first impressions count. We can repaint shop interiors and frontages, repair doors, ceilings and fixtures, upgrade lighting and install or service air conditioning for shops and offices that get too warm in summer. Most of this happens during normal hours, and where it would disrupt customers we can work early, late or at the weekend so you can trade as usual.
Schools and education buildings
Schools need work done safely and at the right time. We can plan decorating, repairs, lighting upgrades and heating servicing for school holidays or after the school day, with a risk assessment and method statement provided before we start and a tidy site left behind.
Heating that is ready for winter
Many older High Street buildings still rely on gas boilers or heaters that have been in place for a long time. Booking servicing before the colder months helps catch faults early, keeps certificates up to date and avoids the rush for engineers when the first cold snap arrives.
Because Newport is so close to our base, we can combine small jobs into a single visit or add your building to a planned maintenance contract, so servicing, inspections and redecoration happen on a schedule you agree.
