New build and renovation air conditioning in Longton
First-fix pipework in Longton extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Inland West Midlands towns can see sharp summer peaks, and the same system doubles as an efficient heater in winter.
For new Longton extensions with flat roofs, the outdoor unit position is best agreed against the architect's drawings. Longton sits around 3 miles from Stoke-on-Trent, inside our Staffordshire area. Postcode districts we cover here include ST3.

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.
