The Importance of Regular Electrical Inspections for Commercial...
22nd Apr 25
The MBi Shay is a sports stadium located in Halifax, West Yorkshire.
The stadium opened in 1921, it is a home ground to four time Rugby League Champions Halifax R.L.F.C as well as semi professional football Halifax Town.
The stadium is owned by Calderdale Metropolitan Council, who is set to reduce its carbon emissions by at least 20% across a number of its buildings. The aim is to achieve an energy and water cost saving of around £150,000 per year.
The Council has engaged energy giants SSE Enterprise Energy Solutions to improve the energy efficiency of its buildings.
A range of energy saving measures were introduced, including low and zero carbon technologies such as new efficient boilers, optimised ventilation and air conditioning equipment, LED lighting, Solar Panels, special software to manage ICT energy use (e.g. computers and printers) and water saving technologies.
Due to complexity of this project, Griff Services Ltd was appointed as a specialist contractor to install Solar Panel system onto trapezoidal roof of stadium.
Following a detailed survey, we worked on a delivery plan, and like in most cases we managed to complete our installation ahead of schedule.
Although this was only a small commercial Solar Panel system, the installation was difficult and consisted of tricky crane lifting, managing installers health and safety while working on a single sheet roof covering and finally battling against November’s harsh icy weather.
Overall, Ben Q SunPrimo 270W modules with SolarEdge inverters started to produce green energy from December 2017. The whole project was successfully delivered from start to handover in just 7 days.
Along with the big contracts I know you usually work on the professionalism and quality of work you provided for me on a one off job was truly outstanding. I have had many previous encounters with tradespeople who are late (or never show up) and only do half a job, and ask for more money than originally quoted. To my relief Griff Services have been an absolute pleasure to do business with and I have recommended their services to my colleagues, family, and friends who are in the Construction trade.
Michael at Griff has done work for me both commercial and residential. Excellent ability to understand and execute every job with a great attention to detail and positive attitude.
We needed to replace solar panels inverter and Griff Services quoted a very sensible price. They were able to do the installation only a few days later. It was all done in a day, with no disruption and a great deal of efficiency and courtesy. We were exceedingly impressed by Michael’s conscientious approach, both to the original discussions and the planning process, and also to the execution of the job. He was a pleasure to meet and to have around the place. Thank you, Michael.
Good afternoon Michael,
I feel I must write to you regarding your engineers, they are all fantastic people and are very good at their jobs. They are a credit to you and your company, they are knowledgeable work quickly and cleanly and at the same time being happy in their work. I am very impressed and think they are a credit to your company.
Thank you for getting it all completed
We were really impressed by the professionalism of Griff Services and would recommend them in the future. The work was undertaken well and we had positive comments regarding the corporate identity of Michael and his co-worker and the company vehicle.
The onsite team from Griff were super respectful and got everything done in terrible weather conditions.
Griff Services did a great job for me. They arranged for the installation of the EV charging point at short notice and provided update and reminder text messages prior to the job. On the morning of the install they also notified me of the installer Tom's ETA. Tom did a great and tidy job and was extremely pleasant to deal with. Overall I would highly recommend them for future work. Thank you
