| Item | Nottingham range | Notes |

| Smart controls and thermostat upgrade | £145–£420 | Smart thermostats (Nest, Hive, Tado) installed alongside the new boiler; often added to the installation quote |
Why do prices differ in Nottingham?
Midlands prices track the national average closely — healthy competition between firms keeps labour rates near the middle of the UK range.
Nottingham combines Victorian terraces in Lenton and Forest Fields — one of England's biggest student-let concentrations — with large council-built estates. Landlord certificate work is a production line here, which keeps certificate prices keen; remedial work on older lets is where quotes diverge.
