HOW
WE CAN HELP YOU |
|
Weather and the natural environment play a crucial role in
construction, affecting schedules and determining whether a project
makes a profit or loss.
We understand how the weather impacts on your schedules
and your profits. We offer a comprehensive range of services, from
forecast products to improve planning and
efficiency, to historical data to
settle contractual claims
quickly and effectively. |
|
METBUILD DIRECT |
|
Metbuild Direct delivers clear and precise forecasts that help you to
plan your daily activities with confidence, and to minimise the impact
of the weather on your operations.
The
construction industry is another business segment which is extremely
sensitive to the weather. We provide pertinent information on timing
and intensity of precipitation for the exact construction location for
either paving or roofing crews. If unexpected rain falls on fresh
concrete, literally thousands of euros go down the drain. Also,
temperature forecasts are also very important for paving crews.
We
send forecasts for the next 6 days by email before 9am each day.
The forecast
includes:
- Weather

temperature
- Wind speed and
