Consent and planning for flats

Flats need more care: get your freeholder's written consent first, and expect the planning rules for a block of flats in Bexhill-on-Sea to be stricter than for a house. In England, permitted development allows one outdoor unit of up to 0.6 m³ on a block of flats; anything more needs planning permission.

FAQ

Common questions in Bexhill-on-Sea

Can I get a price for Bexhill-on-Sea without a visit?

Yes, our online guide price tool gives a range in about a minute. A fixed price needs a survey, which is free for new installations.

How long does the installation take in Bexhill-on-Sea?

Usually 1–2 days. We confirm the timing, and any days with no cooling or heating, in your written quote.

Is the survey in Bexhill-on-Sea really free?

Yes, for new installations. The survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead.

Will the outdoor unit need planning permission in Bexhill-on-Sea?

Most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it meets the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions. Flats and listed buildings usually need permission or consent. We check on survey.

Do you cover all of Bexhill-on-Sea?

Yes, including TN40 and TN39. We also cover nearby Hastings and Hailsham.

Is a portable unit an alternative?

Portable units avoid the outdoor unit but are noisy, less efficient and vent hot air through a window. A fixed split is far more effective if you can get consent.
