Heat load surveys and system design in Bridport
For self-builds and extensions in Bridport, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Coastal breezes help, but inland South West towns and glazed rooms still see uncomfortable peaks.
Every Bridport quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Our Dorset coverage takes in Bridport, about 38 miles from Bournemouth. Coverage includes DT6.

Planning and permissions
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
The survey
A survey in Bridport usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. We book surveys in Bridport at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
