How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: agree the plan on site, put the dust sheets down, do the work, check the system and talk you through it. On site, the work takes a few days on site, depending on the cylinder, the radiators and the pipework involved. Visits to a place like Tadworth are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the job needs.
- Step one is understanding the house, how it’s heated today and what you’d like to change.
- We survey the home room by room for heat loss, and check the emitters, hot water and outdoor unit position.
- We send a fixed-price quote that shows the equipment, the grant position and the VAT.
- The outdoor unit, the indoor equipment and the controls are installed and connected.
- Commissioning, MCS certification and a handover of the controls finish the job.
How to prepare
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property

About our air source heat pumps in Tadworth
An air-to-water heat pump costs £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes), before the grant. In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers a £7,500 grant towards an eligible air-to-water installation and the installer makes the application. Not every home qualifies, so we check eligibility before you commit. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, homes heated by oil, LPG or gas and hot water cylinders, and common reasons people get in touch are ageing boilers that will need replacing and checking emitters for a heat pump.
For a house near Tadworth, space outside is rarely the problem, so heat loss, radiators and the electrics are what we check.
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 we are called out for in Tadworth
For homes with no mains gas, heated by oil or LPG, a heat pump is well worth considering. Until March 2027, an extra £1,500 is available for air source and ground source heat pumps in homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas, subject to the scheme rules.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Finding a place for the outdoor unit
- Radiators that may be too small for a heat pump
- Replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump
With Fitznells Manor about 3.9 miles north, it’s worth asking whether your own home is listed before planning a heat pump.

Hot water cylinders
Existing cylinders may not be suitable for a heat pump, and we explain whether yours can stay.
Air-to-air heat pumps
Air-to-air heat pumps are now covered by permitted development rules in England, subject to conditions. A unit used solely for cooling is not covered, so check with the council.

For rail, the closest station is Tadworth station, roughly 0.5 miles south-west of the centre. Well-known places in the area include The Ashley Centre (2.9 miles north-west) and Headley Court (2 miles west). The countryside around Tadworth includes Colley Hill and Cuddington Meadows.
Safe owner checks
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
FAQs for Tadworth
Will you come out to Tadworth?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is planning permission needed for a heat pump in Tadworth?
That depends on the building and where the outdoor unit goes. Central Tadworth is a short walk from the Tadworth Conservation Area. Heat pumps on houses are often permitted development, but listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where it’s needed, we check with the local planning authority (for Tadworth, normally Reigate and Banstead council).
What accreditations do you have?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. We’re also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
The heat loss survey answers that, room by room. Where a radiator is already large enough, it stays, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, on every job. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before we start, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.
