New build and renovation air conditioning in Esher
Renovations in Esher are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster. The South East sees some of the UK's warmest summer days, and south-facing rooms and conservatories feel it first.
First-fix pipework in Esher extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Esher lies roughly 9 miles from Woking, and we cover it as part of Surrey. Homes in KT10 are all within our coverage.

Guide prices around Esher run from £495 to £1,095 per indoor position (first fix) including VAT. Prices here sit above the national middle, reflecting South East England labour rates and parking and access costs.

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.
