New build and renovation air conditioning in Kirkcaldy

Renovations in Kirkcaldy are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster. Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows.

First-fix pipework in Kirkcaldy extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Kirkcaldy is about 12 miles from Dunfermline and falls within our Fife coverage. Coverage includes KY1.

Labour rates in Central and Southern Scotland keep this slightly under the national middle.

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

On a survey in Kirkcaldy the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
