Heat load surveys and system design in Royton
No two rooms in Royton gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. North West summers are cooler, so many systems here earn their keep as efficient heaters, with cooling for the warmest weeks.
For self-builds and extensions in Royton, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Royton lies roughly 7 miles from Manchester, and we cover it as part of Greater Manchester. Coverage includes OL2.
Prices in Royton
Budget around £375–£1,195 for a standalone design pack including VAT for heat load surveys and system design in and around Royton. That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical North West England labour rates. Larger homes, more zones and full drawing sets for a builder are what move a design pack towards the upper figure. As an example, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) would typically be £375–£745 here.

Planning and permissions
Since 29 May 2025, England's permitted development rules allow larger outdoor units (up to 1.5 m³) and no longer require a 1 m gap to the boundary, provided the MCS 020(a) noise check is met. Listed buildings and pitched-roof installs still need permission.
The survey
A survey in Royton 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. The free survey is where the real price is set: room measurements, pipe and drain routes, electrical checks and the outdoor unit position, all written into your quote.
