New build and renovation air conditioning in Selby
Renovations in Selby are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster. In Yorkshire, south-facing lofts and glazed extensions are where summer cooling makes the biggest difference.
First-fix pipework in Selby extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Our North Yorkshire coverage takes in Selby, about 12 miles from York. We cover YO8 and the streets around them.
Prices in Selby
Our Yorkshire and the Humber guide price for air conditioning for new builds and renovations is £375–£845 per indoor position (first fix), VAT included. That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical Yorkshire and the Humber labour rates. Quotes move with the length of the pipe run, where the outdoor unit can sit and how much electrical work the job needs. On our Yorkshire and the Humber figures, the First and second fix option (complete install priced per room including units) is about £1,395–£2,795.

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.
