Air conditioning installation in Brent costs 1,900 to 3,600 pounds for a single room, fitted and including VAT, and takes one day on site.
The newer blocks around Wembley Park often have a designated plant position on the balcony, which makes them among the easiest flats in London to install in. It is worth checking your building's specification before assuming otherwise.
The housing stock in Brent, and what it means for the job
Brent covers a very wide range. Queens Park and Kensal Rise are Victorian terraces in conservation areas with the usual close rear elevations. Willesden and Cricklewood are a mix of Edwardian terrace and interwar semi. Wembley has a large stock of 1930s semis with side access, plus a great deal of new build flats around the stadium where the outdoor unit position was designed in and the job is simple. Kilburn has a high proportion of converted flats, so the freeholder question comes up as often as it does in Camden.
The typical Brent installation
A typical Brent job is a 1930s Wembley semi, two rooms on one outdoor unit in the side return, done in two days.

Permission in Brent
Parts of Brent are inside conservation areas and parts are not, so the answer genuinely depends on the street rather than on the borough. Outside a conservation area, a house installation that meets the Class G conditions needs no application at all. Inside one, the unit cannot face a highway.
We check the conservation area boundary, any Article 4 direction and the listed building register for your exact address before quoting, and we tell you in writing what we find. We do not publish this council's individual position on this page, because we will not state a council's position we have not read. What we will do is confirm it for your property before you spend anything.

How much does air conditioning cost in Brent?
1,900 to 3,600 pounds for a single room across Brent, with the newer Wembley flats at the lower end. A two-room system on one outdoor unit is typically 3,200 to 5,500 pounds, and three rooms 4,500 to 7,500 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.
Do I need planning permission for air conditioning in Brent?
In most of Brent a domestic installation on a house is permitted development and needs no application, provided it meets all the Class G conditions. Parts of the borough are inside conservation areas, where the unit cannot face a highway. Flats need planning permission regardless.
We check the conservation area boundary, any Article 4 direction and the listed building register for your specific address before we quote. The full set of conditions is on the planning permission page.
How quickly can you get to Brent?
Thirty five to fifty minutes from Southgate. 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 Brent?
Yes, and a large part of our work is flats. 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 matters, and doing it in the wrong order is what makes flat installations expensive. There is a full sequence on the leasehold flats page.
