Air conditioning for flats and apartments in Newport, Gwent
Newer blocks in Newport with balconies are often the simplest flats to fit. South Wales summers can be warm and humid, and winters damp, so a reversible system earns its keep all year.
In Newport apartment blocks, the freeholder's consent is usually the first thing to sort out. Newport, Gwent is one of the main towns we cover in Gwent, alongside Cwmbran and Pontypool. Homes in NP10, NP11, NP18, NP19 and NP20 are all within our coverage.

Guide prices show VAT at 20%. HMRC treats most fixed air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps installed in homes as energy-saving materials, zero-rated until 31 March 2027 when we supply and fit them. If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.
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 Newport to be stricter than for a house. In Wales, the rules for blocks of flats differ from those for houses, so we check with the council before quoting.
The survey
We book surveys in Newport at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
