New build and renovation air conditioning in Ludlow
Hot spells in the West Midlands are shorter but intense, especially in loft rooms and rooms with big windows. Renovations in Ludlow are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster.
For new Ludlow extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. We cover Ludlow as part of Shropshire, roughly 24 miles from Telford. Postcode districts we cover here include SY8.
Prices in Ludlow
Our West Midlands guide price for air conditioning for new builds and renovations is £385–£895 per indoor position (first fix), VAT included. It sits near the middle of UK prices. Longer or hidden pipe runs, high-level brackets and electrical upgrades are the usual reasons a quote lands at the top of the range. On our West Midlands figures, the First and second fix option (complete install priced per room including units) is about £1,395–£2,895.

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
Surveys in Ludlow cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare. A survey in Ludlow 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.
