Lightning Protection is an extremely important aspect of high level work. A strike on any unprotected structure can have devastating consequences.
Our lightning protection systems are installed to exacting standards and meet all the requirements of the relevant British Standards: B.S. 6651 and B.S. 7430.

BS 6651 requires that two downtapes be installed on chimneys, church spires, masts, etc, which are higher than 20 metres.
