Maintenance
Periodic maintenance inspection of any type of equipment is a good idea. In the case of a lightning protection system it is absolutely essential.
Thor engineers will carry out an annual inspection ensuring your lightning protection system is performing safely and efficiently.
During the inspection the mechanical condition of all conductors, bonds, joints and earth electrodes should be checked and the observations noted. The periodic inspections and tests will indicate what maintenance, if any, is needed. We also test and maintain Pulsar systems.
Current maintenance contracts include:
- Staffordshire County Council
- Stoke on Trent City Council
- Birmingham City Council
- Sefton Borough Council
- Oxfordshire NHS
- Walsall Borough Council
- Emcor
- Nationwide Maintenance
- Kier Sheffield Schools
Many people find working at heights a problem. Not our engineers – as part of the PTSG group of companies, our employees are fully trained in working at height and comply with all of the latest safety legislation. As well as installing lightning protection systems on top of some of the country’s highest buildings, they have been specially trained to undertake virtually any type of height work.
Thor engineers are trained in the safe and efficient use of the following apparatus:
- Fixed or mobile scaffolding
- Mobile elevated platforms
- Cradles or ropes
- Ladders & ladder extensions
They are also expert climbers of permanent buildings if this skill is required. They will undertake most remedial & maintenance work at virtually any height. Examples of projects other than lightning protection that can be undertaken include:
- Window cleaning
- Painting / decorating
