New build and renovation air conditioning in Mitcham
For new Mitcham extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. In London, heat soaks into brick and concrete during the day and comes back out at night, which is when it is hardest to sleep.
First-fix pipework in Mitcham extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Our London coverage takes in Mitcham, about 7 miles from central London. That includes the CR4 postcode district.

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.
The survey

On a survey in Mitcham 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.
