How can LC Installations
Help you with Refurbishments & Extentions?
Our team covers a wide range of remedial works and upgrades for existing properties. We service many homes that are undergoing refurbishments or having extensions added to the property.
We can quote on a wide range of different remedial solutions in existing properties. These include above ground drainage, hot and cold feeds and heating feeds.
We also quote for different types of installations such as heating installations, including radiators, boiler airing cupboards and also water softener systems. We also offer hot and cold first and second fix (for bathrooms ad kitchen sink connections. Another popular area of work for ourselves is underfloor heating installations.
On small extensions or retro fit heating and hot water systems, where possible we will often use copper as it is still the best way to guarantee you will not have any issues in years to come with joints failing from O-rings going brittle and pipe/fitting wear and tear.
- In most circumstances we will carry out a site visit then review the site plans and customer preferences.
- We will then send over a fixed quotation for all works discussed.

How To
Reduce Your
Energy Bill
- Install Energy-Efficient Heat Pumps: Upgrade to air source or ground source heat pumps, which efficiently transfer heat to warm your home in winter and cool it in summer, reducing energy usage and lowering your bills.
- Optimise Heating and Cooling: With the installation of heat pumps, complement this with a programmable thermostat to regulate temperature based on your schedule, and ensure proper insulation to minimise energy loss.
- Unplug Unused Devices: Many appliances draw power even when turned off. Unplug devices or use power strips to cut off electricity when not in use, further reducing your energy consumption.
4 Steps
Our simple process ensures everything runs seamlessly and efficient, delivering 100% satisfaction every time.

QUOTE & APPROVAL
We'll then send you an estimate with a breakdown of the work involved. If you decide you want to go ahead with the work, a return visit will be required to carry out a full heat loss survey of the property. -
WORK COMMENCES
A final fixed quotation is then sent over outlining all relevant information of works. Work commences on the agreed date. -
JOB COMPLETION
On completion, the installation is commissioned and signed off, full operation is explained and MCS certificate is completed. All systems are chemically flushed on completion, and we also offer a full power flushing service if the system contains a lot of sludge and debris.
Frequently Asked Questions
About Refurbishments & Extensions
What size projects do we work on?
We work with many medium to large-scale building contractors and can quote for multiple housing plots.
The alloy lining also means its less likely to be damaged by rodents or any other potential sharp objects. The fittings used to make the connections are constructed from brass with an aluminium sheath that’s clamped onto the pipework with a crimping tool. This is a permanent jointing method that cannot be undone giving the fitter and customer piece of mind.
What should I consider when extending my home to ensure the heating system is adequate?
When extending your home, it’s important to assess whether your current heating system can handle the additional space. You may need a larger boiler, additional radiators, or even underfloor heating in the new area. We, as professional heating engineers can evaluate your system’s capacity and recommend upgrades or adjustments to ensure consistent heating throughout your home.
Can I upgrade my heating system during a refurbishment?
Yes, a refurbishment is an ideal time to upgrade your heating system. You can install a more energy-efficient boiler, add smart heating controls, or even switch to a renewable energy system like a heat pump. Upgrading during a refurbishment helps minimise disruption and future-proof your home’s heating needs while adding re-sale value.
How can I improve energy efficiency during my home extension or refurbishment?
To improve energy efficiency, consider installing insulation in the walls, floors, and roof of your new extension. This is a perfect time to discuss options around double or triple glazing on windows and doors to reduce heat loss. Additionally, upgrading your heating system to a more efficient model or adding smart thermostats can help lower your energy bills and make your home more environmentally friendly.
