Services enclosure

  • Boiler, water booster pump and water tank sit in an enclosure outside the house
  • Service work happens outside, so a tank leak won’t flood the house

  • Residence 9 windows and Bergerac painted internal doors
  • Sealed gas fires, intruder alarm, Cat 5 wiring and garden lighting wiring
  • Steel garden shed with light and sockets
