New build and renovation air conditioning in Archway
Many London homes are flats or tall terraces, where heat rises to the top floor and the bedrooms bear the brunt of a hot spell. First-fix pipework in Archway extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open.
For new Archway extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Archway lies roughly 5 miles from central London, and we cover it as part of London. We cover N19 and the streets around them.

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.
