Working in Richmond
Richmond sits within London's dense commercial fabric: shopfronts, offices above, studios and venues, where outdoor unit positions and access need careful planning.
Postcode districts we cover in Richmond include DL10 and TW9. Nearby, we also cover Isleworth (about 3 km), Hounslow (about 4 km) and Barnes (about 4 km).
In Richmond, outdoor unit positions are often the deciding factor: a rear flat roof or yard is usually straightforward, while a front elevation may need landlord or planning consent first.
For servicing and repairs in Richmond, roof and high-level access is planned in advance, so the visit is not wasted waiting for a tower or a key.

Points to plan for in Richmond
Working hours
Most Richmond businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Leased premises
If your Richmond premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
Common questions in Richmond
How much does commercial air conditioning cost in Richmond?
A single wall-mounted split typically costs £1,850–£3,150 plus VAT installed in Richmond, and a ceiling cassette £2,750–£6,350 per unit. A small shop or office with two to four indoor units usually comes to £6,350–£20,995 plus VAT.
Do you also cover Isleworth, Hounslow and Barnes?
Yes. Alongside Richmond, we also cover Isleworth, Hounslow and Barnes. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new installations and replacements on the UK mainland. Service, repair and inspection visits are priced before we book them.
Which refrigerant do new systems use?
Most new small split systems use R32, because new single splits under 3 kg in Great Britain cannot use refrigerants with a GWP of 750 or more. Larger systems vary by equipment.
Can you work outside our opening hours?
Yes. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged, and any extra cost is shown in the quote.
