Why people use SAFEXE

Dean Luckhurst, founder

Dean has been in the trade since 2009. He started out on LPG, general plumbing and mechanical work, and set up SAFEXE in Exmouth in 2013. It’s since grown into a small team of engineers working across East Devon, with more of the work now in air conditioning and heat pumps alongside the boilers and plumbing SAFEXE has always done.

  • We look at the house first. We recommend what suits the property and how you use it, not what’s quickest to sell.
  • You get a written estimate before any work starts. A 25% deposit books the job in.
  • Everything is tested and commissioned, and we show you how it works before we leave.
  • We keep it tidy. Dust sheets go down and we clear up properly. It’s what our reviews mention most.

Questions we’re often asked

How much does a new boiler cost?

A straight swap for a new combi boiler starts from about £2,500 including VAT, fitted. The final price depends on the boiler, the flue and how much pipework needs changing. A power flush is extra. We give you a written price after a survey.

How much does air conditioning cost?

A single wall unit for one room starts from about £2,000 fitted. Two rooms start from about £4,000 and three from about £6,000. The price depends on the units, the pipe run and where the outdoor unit goes.

Is air conditioning 0% VAT?

Air-to-air heat pumps (air conditioning that heats as well as cools) fitted in homes currently qualify for 0% VAT. This is due to rise to 5% in March 2027.

Can I get a grant for a heat pump?

Most homes can get £7,500 through the Boiler Upgrade Scheme. Homes coming off oil or LPG can get up to £9,000 until March 2027. The grant goes through our MCS-certified partner, and we’ll tell you which applies at the survey.
