Prices in Welling
In London, our guide range for air conditioning replacement and removal is £255–£645 to remove and recover one system, including VAT. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in London. 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 London figures, the Like-for-like option (replace one system using sound existing routes) is about £1,495–£2,945.

Planning and permissions
England's rules let most houses fit an outdoor unit without a planning application, as long as the size, number and MCS 020(a) noise conditions are met. Flats, listed buildings and roof-mounted units are treated differently.
The survey
A survey in Welling 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. We book surveys in Welling at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
