About our commercial air conditioning in Aldermaston Soke
Businesses can’t always stop for an installation. We plan out-of-hours, weekend and phased installs so disruption is kept down. The programme is agreed before any work starts. Common call-outs are for changes of use that need a new layout and buildings that can’t close for the work, on VRF systems, server and comms room cooling and multi-split systems.
Around Aldermaston Soke, there’s typically space for outdoor plant away from the road, out of sight and away from neighbours.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

What else we do in Aldermaston Soke
What owners can safely do
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
Aldermaston Soke: your questions answered
Will you come out to Aldermaston Soke?
Yes. Aldermaston Soke is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Aldermaston Soke?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Around 3 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Aldermaston Soke. 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 Basingstoke and Deane council, which is typically the planning authority for Aldermaston Soke.
Do you offer commercial maintenance contracts?
Yes. A contract keeps the system serviced and any required leak checks on schedule, with records kept for each visit.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, and we’re Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so check the terms or ask us. Either way, keep a record of every service.
How are commercial air conditioning installs priced?
Commercial systems are priced after a site survey. The cost depends on the size of the space, the system and how the work is phased and the quote is fixed before we begin.
Do you work on all makes?
We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
How we price commercial air conditioning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How many units are involved
- What state the existing equipment is in
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all play a part.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- Your installation or service records
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email.
How it works
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Aldermaston Soke.
- We start with the details of the building and the problem.
- We survey the site to check heat gains, layout and access.
- The options, cost and timing are set out in a fixed-price quote.
- Installation goes ahead around the business.
- The system is commissioned and maintenance can be arranged.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
Getting a quote
Every quote starts with a look at the job, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.
Advice
What commercial work looks like in Aldermaston Soke
There are about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Aldermaston Soke, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Many of those sites need air conditioning that’s sized for long hours and maintained on a schedule.
For a school like Silchester Church of England Primary School, air conditioning work is best done out of term. If you look after a church or hall such as Saint Luke's Church, an air-to-air system that warms up quickly can suit a building used on and off, subject to the right consents.
