How it works
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before work begins so it does not catch you out. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. On site, it takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Audley End easier.
- We survey the property, or work from your pictures for a simple job.
- Output, positions and price are settled before anything is booked.
- We protect the area, then fit both halves of the system.
- We run and connect the pipes, cable and drain, then pressure test and evacuate the circuit.
- The system is commissioned, the controls explained and the F-Gas records handed over.
How to prepare
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
How to get a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.

What air conditioning cannot fix
Air conditioning cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It does not solve:
- Central heating repairs
- Draughts and missing insulation
- A room that cannot take an outdoor unit or pipe route without the landlord’s, management company’s or council’s consent (that consent comes first)
If you are not sure, just ring us on 07833 053749 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Living close to United Reformed Church? Some older properties in parts like that are protected, and the survey finds out whether yours is.

Fixed-price quotes for air conditioning in Audley End
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- The size of the job
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- How easy the units are to reach
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but your price depends on the job in front of us. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.
Before you get in touch
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
Let and managed properties
Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the records to whoever needs them.
For anyone managing more than one building, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Every address has its own paperwork, so each one has its own history.
FAQs for Audley End
Do you cover Audley End for air conditioning?
We do: Audley End falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Audley End?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. There’s a conservation area, the Audley End Conservation Area, close to central Audley End. Put simply: reversible systems on houses can be permitted development, cooling-only ones cannot, listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit outdoor units facing a road. When your property needs a decision, we contact the local planning authority (for Audley End, typically Uttlesford council).
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
How much is air conditioning for one room?
From £1,200 + VAT for a single-room split, with a typical range of £1,200–£2,200 + VAT. The price includes supply, installation, commissioning and F-Gas documentation and is fixed after a survey or from photos.
Will you make a mess?
Protection goes down first: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Where will you put the outdoor unit?
We agree it with you on the survey. It needs space around it to breathe and room for an engineer to service it, and a position facing a road can bring extra planning considerations. We will tell you what to check before we fit it.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
