New build and renovation air conditioning in Croydon
Renovations in Croydon are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster. 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 Croydon extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Our London coverage takes in Croydon, about 8 miles from central London. Coverage includes CR0, CR7 and CR9.
Prices in Croydon
Budget around £495–£1,195 per indoor position (first fix) including VAT for air conditioning for new builds and renovations in and around Croydon. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. Longer or hidden pipe runs, high-level brackets and electrical upgrades are the usual reasons a quote lands at the top of the range. As an example, the First and second fix option (complete install priced per room including units) would typically be £1,895–£3,895 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
First-fix work is about coordination, while the outdoor unit follows the normal planning rules for the property.
The survey
A survey in Croydon 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. We book surveys in Croydon at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
