Our air conditioning service in SE16
Most air conditioning needs its own electrical supply from the consumer unit. Under Part P, a new circuit is notifiable unless a registered competent person does it, and our NICEIC approval means we install and certify it ourselves. Typical jobs include too many options and no clear advice and rooms under the roof that stay hot into the night, on ceiling cassettes, air-to-air heat pumps and ducted systems.
The first job on site is protection: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It takes about a day for a single-room system, longer for multi-room and ducted systems, and we clear up before we go.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the rooms, the walls, the outside and the electrics.
- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- The treatment: units fitted, pipework and drain routed, and the electrics installed.
- Before it runs, the pipework is proved tight and put under vacuum.
- The sign-off: commissioning, a walk through the controls, and the F-Gas records and warranty details.
How we quote
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is looked at first, and the price is agreed before we start.
What you get with us
- An F-Gas certified company, as the law requires
- Enquiries answered the same working day
- NICEIC approved for electrical work
- Fixed-price quotes after a survey or photos
How to get a quote
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
Around Rotherhithe
In Rotherhithe, that means homes and buildings near St Mellitus College, Alfred Salter Primary School and Holy Trinity Church. You’ll also find Bacon's College (within half a mile north), Russia Dock Woodland (within half a mile north-east) and The Ship York pub (within half a mile east). Rotherhithe has its own railway station: Canada Water station. A little further out are St Olave's Hospital (0.5 miles west) and Tower of London (1.6 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include St. James's Park Lake and Tower Hill.
Air conditioning across SE16
From Bermondsey, Rotherhithe and Shadwell outwards, SE16 has every kind of home. Each install starts with a survey of the rooms, the walls and where the outdoor unit can go, then a fixed-price quote.
SE16 is part of a working area that runs from Greater London to the Sussex coast and out to Oxfordshire and Essex. You reach the same people wherever you are in it.
Rotherhithe: Close to Canada Water station? A small study or box room used for work can usually be cooled with a single indoor unit. Older streets near Holy Trinity Church may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes.
How we price air conditioning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- A single visit or a regular plan
- What kind of system it is
Several rooms, units or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered, and you will get one fixed price.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
- The address and the type of property
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
Getting a quote is straightforward. Call or email with a few details and we’ll come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.
What air conditioning cannot fix
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- Work that needs permission from a landlord or the council
- Gas boiler or central heating faults (we do not work on gas boilers)
- Draughts and missing insulation
System by system
Offices, shops and commercial rooms
Bigger systems in buildings come with extra duties, such as a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange and prepare for it.
Pipework and condensate drains
We pressure test and evacuate the pipework before the system is charged, which keeps moisture and air out of the circuit. The results go into the commissioning records.
Why act early?
Where the outdoor unit goes matters to you and to the neighbours. A good position keeps noise down and leaves room for servicing, and it can make a difference to planning. We agree it with you on the survey.
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the job turns out to be different on the day
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
- If the figure could change on the day
- Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it
SE16: your questions answered
Is planning permission needed for the outdoor unit?
Sometimes. The rules differ for heat pumps and cooling-only air conditioning, and for houses, flats, listed buildings and conservation areas. We flag anything that may need permission when we survey and the council makes the decision. This is general information, not legal advice.
Are you F-Gas certified?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we’re an F-Gas certified company. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Can the outdoor unit go on a roof or at ground level?
It can go on a wall bracket, at ground level or on a flat roof, wherever the pipe route, airflow and servicing access work best. Noise near bedrooms and boundaries is part of the decision, and the position can affect planning.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
That depends on the brand. Where servicing is a condition, a missed service could give the manufacturer grounds to refuse a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
