Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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.
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we will keep everyone informed.
Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in South Godstone
Installing an air source heat pump in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027, then 5%. This is HMRC’s energy-saving materials relief, which applies to homes rather than businesses, and for air-to-air systems we confirm the VAT on your quote. Please treat this as general information rather than tax advice. If the problem is ageing boilers that will need replacing and plans to switch to electric heating with a heat pump, we can sort it out.
Older and listed homes in villages like South Godstone need extra care, because permitted development does not apply within the grounds of a listed building, so we check consent first.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

How the job changes from property to property
Air-to-water heat pumps
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. A £7,500 grant may be available through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme for eligible homes, and we apply for it as the installer.
Radiators and underfloor heating
Underfloor heating works well with heat pumps because it uses lower temperatures and we look at it during the survey.
What we are called out for in South Godstone
Extensions, renovations and loft conversions are a natural time to rethink the heating. Pipework, radiators and space for a cylinder are easier to plan while work is going on.
These are the situations we see most often:
- Questions about the Boiler Upgrade Scheme
- Questions about where the outdoor unit can go
- No space for a hot water cylinder
Homeowners near Godstone station often ask whether a heat pump can take over from the boiler, and the heat loss survey answers that.
Before booking anyone
- What’s in the price and what isn’t
- What happens if the job turns out to be different on the day
- The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. A few pictures help us make the most of a visit to South Godstone.
- First, a chat about the property and your goals for the heating.
- A survey covers heat loss, radiators, hot water and where the outdoor unit could sit.
- We explain which type of heat pump suits the home and whether a grant could apply.
- The system is installed and connected to the controls.
- The job ends with commissioning, the MCS certificate and a walk through the controls.
Preparing for the visit
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

South Godstone questions
Is the heat pump grant available in South Godstone?
South Godstone is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. The amount depends on the type of heat pump, and the survey confirms which applies. As an MCS certified installer, we apply for it on your behalf.
Do you cover smaller places like South Godstone?
Yes. South Godstone 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.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Do you work on all makes?
We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
Do I need new radiators for a heat pump?
We find out during the survey. Rooms where the radiator is big enough stay as they are, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Homes in South Godstone and heat pumps
Lagham Manor, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 4 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around South Godstone’s centre. That affects heat pumps: listed buildings need consent, and conservation areas limit where the outdoor unit can go under permitted development. Where needed, we check with Tandridge council, normally the planning authority here. About 41% of homes in and around South Godstone date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data, and the last census (2021) found about 61% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Homes of that age often have cavity walls that may or may not be insulated, which the survey checks. Detached and semi-detached houses normally have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder.
Historic houses such as Titsey Place, about 4.9 miles north-east, are a reminder that listed homes need consent before a heat pump goes in.
South Godstone is about 5 miles south of Caterham, in Surrey. South Godstone gets the same approach as every job we take on: diagnosis first, a fixed price and proper paperwork when we’ve finished.

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
