New build and renovation air conditioning in Boston
The East Midlands gets warm, dry summer spells, and loft conversions and top-floor bedrooms are where the heat builds. For new Boston extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings.
First-fix pipework in Boston extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Our Lincolnshire coverage takes in Boston, about 27 miles from Lincoln. Homes in PE21 are all within our coverage.
Prices in Boston
For Boston, expect roughly £380 to £845 per indoor position (first fix), VAT included, adjusted for typical East Midlands rates. Labour rates in the East Midlands keep this slightly under the national middle. 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. As an example, the First and second fix option (complete install priced per room including units) would typically be £1,395–£2,845 here.

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
Because the pipework is built into the structure, coordination with your builder matters more than planning here; the outdoor unit follows the same rules as any other installation.
