For Crowborough, expect roughly £240 to £595 to remove and recover one system, VAT included, adjusted for typical South East England rates. South East England is one of the dearer parts of the UK for trades, which shows in the range. The biggest variables are the pipe route, access for the outdoor unit and the state of the consumer unit, all of which the survey settles. As an example, the Like-for-like option (replace one system using sound existing routes) would typically be £1,395–£2,745 here.
