For Shepherds Bush, expect roughly £1,595 to £3,895 per room, VAT included, adjusted for typical London rates. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. Concealed pipework, access equipment for high walls and any electrical work are what push prices towards the upper figure. As an example, the Popular option (low-noise unit with Wi-Fi for a loft room or main bedroom) would typically be £2,045–£2,895 here.
