FAQs
Facilities Management in Lewes: FAQs
Do you provide facilities management across all of Lewes?
Yes, we cover the BN7 postcode area in full, including Cliffe, Southover, Landport, Nevill, Malling, Wallands.
How is facilities management different from your commercial services?
Commercial services covers defined, one-off projects such as a refurbishment or fit-out. Facilities management is an ongoing contract for the continuous upkeep of a commercial building afterwards — maintenance, repairs and compliance — rather than a project with a fixed end date.
What's typically included in a facilities management contract?
Contracts are scoped to the building, but commonly include planned preventative maintenance, reactive repair response, statutory compliance checks and coordinating specialist trades and cleaning under one point of contact — agreed individually for your premises.
How does South Downs National Park status affect building work in Lewes?
Development within the National Park is assessed with particular regard to landscape character and setting, alongside normal planning policy. Combined with the town's conservation area and listed building status, this means early advice is particularly valuable in Lewes.
