New build and renovation air conditioning in Sandy
Long sunny spells in the East of England put conservatories and top-floor rooms under real pressure. First-fix pipework in Sandy extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open.
For new Sandy extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Sandy lies roughly 18 miles from Luton, and we cover it as part of Bedfordshire. Coverage includes SG19.

Guide prices show VAT at 20%. HMRC treats most fixed air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps installed in homes as energy-saving materials, zero-rated until 31 March 2027 when we supply and fit them. If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.
Working with your builder
First-fix work is about coordination, while the outdoor unit follows the normal planning rules for the property.
