Heat load surveys and system design across Leicestershire
Every Leicester quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. For self-builds and extensions in Leicester, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. Summer peaks in the East Midlands make bedrooms under the roof the hardest rooms to keep comfortable.
Prices in Leicestershire
Our East Midlands guide price for heat load surveys and system design is £380–£1,195 for a standalone design pack, VAT included. That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical East Midlands labour rates. 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 £380–£745 here.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Leicestershire, 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
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. A survey in Leicestershire 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.
