Heat load surveys and system design in Gillingham

Summers in the South East are among the warmest in the country, so cooling often comes first, with efficient winter heating as a bonus. For self-builds and extensions in Gillingham, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder.

Every Gillingham quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Gillingham lies roughly 9 miles from Maidstone, and we cover it as part of Kent. Coverage includes ME7.

Prices in Gillingham

Our South East England guide price for heat load surveys and system design is £495–£1,495 for a standalone design pack, VAT included. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in South East England. The design pack price depends mainly on the number of rooms and whether full drawings and equipment schedules are needed. As an example, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) would typically be £495–£945 here.

Planning and permissions

For most houses in Gillingham, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.

The survey

We book surveys in Gillingham at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards. 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.

FAQ

Common questions in Gillingham

Can I get a price for Gillingham 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.

Is the survey in Gillingham really free?

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

How soon can you survey in Gillingham?

We offer survey dates when you enquire. Early summer is the busiest time, so spring and autumn are the easiest times to book.

Do you cover all of Gillingham?

Yes, including ME7. We also cover nearby Chatham and Rochester.

Why can't you just quote from floor area?

Two rooms the same size can need very different units because of glazing, orientation and use. Sizing from floor area alone is the main cause of systems that never feel right.
