New build and renovation air conditioning in Holloway
London's dense streets hold heat overnight, so top-floor flats and loft rooms often stay warm long after sunset. First-fix pipework in Holloway extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open.
For new Holloway extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Holloway lies roughly 4 miles from central London, and we cover it as part of London. Postcode districts we cover here include N7.
Prices in Holloway
Air conditioning for new builds and renovations in Holloway typically comes in at £495–£1,195 per indoor position (first fix) including VAT, based on London rates. London is one of the dearer parts of the UK for trades, which shows in the range. What moves a quote in Holloway up or down is mostly pipe length, how high the outdoor unit goes, and whether a new electrical circuit is needed. 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
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 Holloway 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. We book surveys in Holloway at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
