Air conditioning installation in Barking and Dagenham costs 2,400 to 3,200 pounds for a single room, fitted and including VAT, and takes one day on site.

A Becontree cottage is one of the easiest houses in London to price from a description, because there are thousands of them built to a handful of plans. It is still surveyed before a fixed price, but the range is narrow.

### Read the full guide: 5 sections, about 3 minutes

## The housing stock in Barking and Dagenham, and what it means for the job

Barking and Dagenham has the highest share of terraced homes of any borough we cover, 42 per cent, and most of them are the Becontree estate, built by the London County Council between the wars and once the largest council estate in the world. Most are now privately owned. They are compact brick cottages in short terraces, with front and back gardens, and they are small enough that one well-sized unit, or a modest heat pump, does the whole job. Barking town centre adds Victorian streets and newer towers, and Barking Riverside is new flats.

## The typical Barking and Dagenham installation

A typical job here is a Becontree house: one or two rooms on an outdoor unit in the back garden, done in a day, and a house small and regular enough that heating it with a heat pump is a very predictable job.

## What it costs here

| Job | System | Installed price |
| --- | --- | --- |
| One bedroom | 2.5kW single split | £2,400 to £3,200 |
| Double bedroom | 3.5kW single split | £2,550 to £3,500 |
| Two rooms | 2 unit multi-split | £4,300 to £5,800 |
| Three rooms | 3 unit multi-split | £6,400 to £8,600 |
| Whole house, four or five rooms | Multi-split, one or two outdoor | £8,400 to £14,000 |
| Heat pump, three bedroom house | After the £7,500 grant | £5,700 to £8,700 |
| Annual service | Any make | £95 plus VAT |

## Permission in Barking and Dagenham

Conservation area coverage in Barking and Dagenham is comparatively low, which is one of the reasons installations here tend to be straightforward. On a house, an installation meeting the Class G conditions is permitted development and needs no application. We still check the address, because one listed building or one Article 4 street is enough to change the answer.

## What the housing in Barking and Dagenham means for permission

69 per cent of homes in Barking and Dagenham are houses, which is high for London and is the main reason installations here tend to be straightforward. 5 per cent are detached and 22 per cent semi-detached, and a semi with a side return is close to the ideal outdoor unit position. Only 31 per cent are flats, and those are the ones that need planning permission and freeholder consent. The most common home in Barking and Dagenham is the terrace, 42 per cent: no side access, so the outdoor unit goes at the back, on the ground, on a rear addition roof or on a bracket. Of the 21 boroughs we cover north of the Thames, Barking and Dagenham has the third highest share of houses.

| Home type | Share of Barking and Dagenham | What it means here |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Detached | 5% | The easiest, with a choice of elevations |
| Semi-detached | 22% | Usually a side return, the best position there is |
| Terraced | 42% | A large share here. Outdoor unit to the rear or on a bracket |
| Purpose-built flat | 28% | Planning permission and freeholder consent, both |
| Converted flat | 2% | Very few here |

Shares of the 73,899 households counted in Barking and Dagenham at the 2021 Census, table TS044, rounded. Percentages do not total 100 because homes in commercial buildings and temporary structures are counted separately.

## Air conditioning in Barking and Dagenham: common questions

### How much does air conditioning cost in Barking and Dagenham?

2,400 to 3,200 pounds for a single room, and Becontree houses sit in the lower half because the access and the outdoor space are almost always straightforward. A two-room system on one outdoor unit is typically 4,300 to 5,800 pounds, and three rooms 6,400 to 8,600 pounds.

Every price includes the units, installation, commissioning, electrical work and VAT. The fixed price comes after a free survey. There is a full breakdown on the [cost page](https://climateshieldlondon.co.uk/air-conditioning-cost-london/).

### Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Barking and Dagenham?

Most likely not. 69 per cent of homes in Barking and Dagenham are houses, and a house installation meeting the Class G conditions is permitted development.

The section further down this page sets out what the housing stock here means in practice, and every condition is on the [planning permission page](https://climateshieldlondon.co.uk/air-conditioning-planning-permission/). We check the conservation area boundary, any Article 4 direction and the listed building register for your exact address before quoting.

### How quickly can you get to Barking and Dagenham?

Thirty five to forty five minutes from N14, round the North Circular and out along the A13. For a survey we usually offer something within 48 hours, and for a fault call we will tell you the day we can genuinely attend rather than promising one we cannot keep.

### Do you install in flats in Barking and Dagenham?

Yes. 31 per cent of homes in Barking and Dagenham are flats, 28 per cent of them purpose-built and 2 per cent conversions, so it is a large share of what we do here. It takes two permissions rather than one: the freeholder's written consent and planning permission from the council.

We prepare the licence pack the managing agent will ask for at no charge, including the drawing, the sound data and the insurance. The order the two permissions are done in is what decides whether it is expensive, and there is a full sequence on the [leasehold flats page](https://climateshieldlondon.co.uk/air-conditioning-leasehold-flat/).

### Do you service and repair existing systems in Barking and Dagenham?

Yes, any make and any age, including systems installed by companies no longer trading. An annual service is 95 pounds plus VAT and a fault diagnosis is 89 pounds plus VAT, waived if we do the repair the same day. See [servicing](https://climateshieldlondon.co.uk/air-conditioning-servicing-london/) and [repairs](https://climateshieldlondon.co.uk/air-conditioning-repair-london/).
