There is a group of London beekeepers who respond to swarm reports, but if you have a settled colony inside part of your building then it's extraction with a whole extra set of liabilities compared to gathering up a swarm that's temporarily settled on some object in your garden or on an exterior wall.
Are the bees being aggressive? You either have to live with it or get extractors in, for £££.

Hmm, that’s concerning. We’ve had some honey bees (confirmed) set up an outpost in our water heater exhaust/flue (?). Was quoted several hundred £ by a national company to come and remove them, which isn’t going to happen.
Any would-be bee keepers fancy a new swarm, if/when it arrives? Happy to receive quotes for the service, but if it’s multiple hundreds of pounds I’d prefer to keep an epipen or five handy.
