Lichfield is a cathedral city with a large conservation area of Georgian and older brick buildings around the Close, Bore Street and Dam Street. Around that core are 20th-century estates such as Boley Park, Leomansley and Curborough, and big new developments at Streethay and on the southern edge of the city.
Older solid-wall properties in Lichfield can use heat pumps, but insulation, draught-proofing and larger radiators often need to be part of the plan. Listed buildings need consent checks with Lichfield District Council. Lichfield's newer homes are well suited to solar and heat pumps, while in the conservation area panel placement and outdoor unit siting need more thought.
For Lichfield (WS13 and WS14), planning applications are handled by Lichfield District Council, and highways matters such as scaffold licences, skips on the road and dropped kerbs by Staffordshire County Council. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is about nine miles down the A51 from our Rugeley yard.
We calculate heat loss room by room, check the radiators, then specify a heat pump and cylinder that match the house. Oversized units waste money and undersized ones leave rooms cold, so the design stage matters.
Positioning the outdoor unit is about noise, airflow, neighbours and pipe runs. We agree the location with you and check whether it falls within permitted development limits.
📍 Rob, Lichfield
We turned Rob's garden in Lichfield into a complete outdoor living space, with sandstone paving, decorative gravel on a stabilisation grid, raised sleeper beds and a new 8x4 shed on a concrete base. The centrepiece is a semi-sunken block-and-brick firepit area under a hardwood pergola. We also fitted a new 7.3m canopy, a hardwood gate and new fencing, and kept the Red Robin and roses Rob wanted to save.
📍 Becky, Lichfield
We restored Becky's paving in Lichfield. We cleaned and re-grouted around 60m² of patio, plus the pathway, the steps and the coping tiles, so the whole garden looks fresh again.
Lichfield's newer homes are well suited to solar and heat pumps, while in the conservation area panel placement and outdoor unit siting need more thought. We assess each property individually before recommending a system.
Many installations are permitted development, subject to size, siting and noise conditions. Listed buildings and some locations need permission; Lichfield District Council can confirm.
Sometimes. Heat pumps run at lower temperatures, so some rooms may need larger radiators. The heat loss survey shows which ones.
Yes. Solar PV can supply part of the heat pump's electricity during the day, and a battery can extend that into the evening.
We cover Lichfield, Whittington, Shenstone, Fradley, Alrewas and Streethay, and the wider Staffordshire area.
