That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical South and Mid Wales labour rates. What moves a quote in Briton Ferry up or down is mostly pipe length, how high the outdoor unit goes, and whether a new electrical circuit is needed.

Planning and permissions
Since 1 June 2026, Welsh permitted development rules for outdoor units closely match England's: up to 1.5 m³, two units on a detached home, one on other homes, and MCS 020a noise compliance. Listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas have extra restrictions on units facing a road.

At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote. We book surveys in Briton Ferry at a time that suits you, including early evenings by arrangement, and send the written quote afterwards.
