New build and renovation air conditioning in Blackwood
Wet South Wales winters make a heat pump's quiet, even heating and dehumidifying mode useful well beyond summer. Renovations in Blackwood are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster.
First-fix pipework in Blackwood extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Blackwood is about 19 miles from Bridgend and falls within our Mid Glamorgan coverage. That includes the NP12 postcode district.

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
