Heat load surveys and system design in Islington
For self-builds and extensions in Islington, 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.
No two rooms in Islington gain or lose heat in quite the same way, which is exactly why rooms are measured before sizing. We cover Islington as part of London, roughly 3 miles from central London. We cover EC1P, EC4P, N1, N1C, N1P and N7 and the streets around them.
Prices in Islington
Our London guide price for heat load surveys and system design is £495–£1,645 for a standalone design pack, VAT included. 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. For reference, the Design pack option in Islington (drawings and schedules for one home) usually comes to about £495–£1,045.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Islington, 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
A survey in Islington 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. Surveys in Islington cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
