New build and renovation air conditioning in Long Eaton
East Midlands summers bring dry, sunny spells, so glazing and orientation matter most when sizing a unit. Renovations in Long Eaton are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster.
First-fix pipework in Long Eaton extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Long Eaton lies roughly 9 miles from Derby, and we cover it as part of Derbyshire. That includes the NG10 postcode district.
Prices in Long Eaton
In the East Midlands, our guide range for air conditioning for new builds and renovations is £380–£845 per indoor position (first fix), including VAT. It is a touch below the UK middle, as trade rates in the East Midlands tend to be. The biggest variables are the pipe route, access for the outdoor unit and the state of the consumer unit, all of which the survey settles. Typical First and second fix work (complete install priced per room including units) lands around £1,395–£2,845 in this area.

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
On build projects the main thing is timing with your builder and electrician; we fit first-fix pipework before plastering and agree the outdoor unit position early.
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 Long Eaton 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.
