FAQs — Office Maintenance in Liverpool Street & Bishopsgate

What response SLAs do you offer?

1-hour, 4-hour and 24-hour tiers for reactive attendance. Critical response (water leak, power loss, security) always defaults to the 1-hour tier regardless of contract level.

Do you provide a CAFM portal?

Yes — every contract includes client access to our CAFM system with live job tickets, asset register, compliance certificates and spend reports.

Who handles L8 and EICR testing?

In-house. Our water hygiene and NICEIC teams deliver all statutory testing and certification; records live in the CAFM portal.

Can you cover multiple sites under one contract?

Yes. We support multi-site portfolios across London with a single PM, consolidated reporting and shared engineer pool.

How do you price PPM — per sqft or per asset?

We cost-load the PPM calendar from the asset register, then present it as a cost-per-sqft number for ease of comparison. The underlying price is per-asset and transparent.

Are you approved on the Broadgate estate?

Yes — we hold up-to-date British Land approvals including CSCS, insurance, CDM and Broadgate-specific fit-out protocol sign-off.

How strict are the out-of-hours windows?

6am–8am and 6pm–10pm for construction traffic. Heavy-noise works in 22 Bishopsgate and Broadgate trophy buildings only 8pm–5am. We plan the programme around these windows from day one.

Can you deliver while trading floors are live?

Yes. Live trading-floor refurbishments are delivered in phased night shifts 8pm–5am with full dust-sealed segregation, low-noise tools, and completion of reinstatement before 6:30am market open.

What's a typical Broadgate CAT B programme?

10,000 sqft: 12–14 weeks. 25,000 sqft (full floor): 18–22 weeks. 100,000 sqft (multi-floor trophy): 32–40 weeks phased.
