Air conditioning replacement and removal in Peckham
Many London homes are flats or tall terraces, where heat rises to the top floor and the bedrooms bear the brunt of a hot spell. During building work in Peckham, units can be recovered and removed so the job can go ahead safely.
Units over fifteen years old in Peckham homes are worth replacing before they fail completely. We cover Peckham as part of London, roughly 3 miles from central London. Postcode districts we cover here include SE15.

Prices here sit above the national middle, reflecting London labour rates and parking and access costs. 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.

Planning and permissions
In England, most houses can have an outdoor unit under permitted development if it is no larger than 1.5 m³, meets the MCS 020(a) noise limit of 37 dB(A) at the nearest neighbour's window, and there are no more than two on a detached house or one on other houses. Listed buildings need consent.
The survey
A survey in Peckham 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. Surveys in Peckham cover heat gain, pipe routes, electrics, access and noise to the nearest neighbour, so surprises on the day are rare.
