Heat load surveys and system design in Cricklewood
For self-builds and extensions in Cricklewood, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder. London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset.
Every Cricklewood quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. Our London coverage takes in Cricklewood, about 6 miles from central London. Homes in NW2 are all within our coverage.
Prices in Cricklewood
Budget around £495–£1,645 for a standalone design pack including VAT for heat load surveys and system design in and around Cricklewood. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. The design pack price depends mainly on the number of rooms and whether full drawings and equipment schedules are needed. On our London figures, the Design pack option (drawings and schedules for one home) is about £495–£1,045.

Planning and permissions
In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.
The survey
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. A survey in Cricklewood 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.
