Air source heat pumps for homes and businesses in Dagenham Green
In England, an air source heat pump on a house can often go in under permitted development rights. The conditions include an outdoor unit of no more than 1.5 m³ and compliance with MCS 020(a), and the unit can’t be used solely for cooling or sit within the curtilage of a listed building. We look at the planning position for your home during the survey. We are often asked to deal with replacing a combi boiler with a heat pump and wanting to stop using oil, LPG or gas for heating, across air-to-water heat pumps, air-to-air heat pumps and homes heated by oil, LPG or gas.
Terraced houses in a London area like Dagenham Green can suit a heat pump well, as long as there’s a sensible spot for the outdoor unit and its noise is checked against the MCS planning standard.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

How we price air source heat pumps
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
- How many units are involved
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
Putting several jobs into one visit often makes better use of the time. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Helping us quote
Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by photos or a survey, the price is fixed. To start, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.

How it works
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. From there, the work takes from a couple of days to around a week, depending on the system and how much of the heating changes. If a freeholder or agent needs to agree the work in Dagenham Green, we can send them the details.
- Step one is understanding the house, how it’s heated today and what you’d like to change.
- We survey the home room by room for heat loss, and check the emitters, hot water and outdoor unit position.
- You get a fixed-price quote, with any grant you’re eligible for and the VAT explained.
- Installation covers the outdoor unit, the indoor connections and the controls.
- Commissioning, MCS certification and a handover of the controls finish the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme
In England and Wales, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers grants towards heat pumps: £7,500 for air-to-water and ground source, and £2,500 for air-to-air in limited cases. The application goes through the installer.
Air source heat pumps around Dagenham Green
Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 69% of homes in and around Dagenham Green date from 1919 to 1939, and about 48% of households live in terraced houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Homes of that age often have cavity walls that may or may not be insulated, which the survey checks. In a terrace, the outdoor unit position and the MCS noise check need particular care. In London, outside space and the rules for flats often decide which kind of heat pump suits.
Homeowners near Dagenham Dock station often ask whether a heat pump can take over from the boiler, and the heat loss survey answers that. Live in one of the older houses around St Martin's Church? Expect the survey to look closely at heat loss and at the building’s planning status.

Dagenham Green: your questions answered
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Dagenham Green?
Yes, if the home and the heat pump meet the scheme’s rules: Dagenham Green is in England, where it applies. Air-to-water and ground source systems attract £7,500. Air-to-air gets £2,500, but only where it takes over from fossil-fuel heating and covers the whole home’s heating demand. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Is Dagenham Green in your area for air source heat pumps?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Dagenham Green is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.
Is a heat pump permitted development?
Under the Planning Portal rules, a heat pump on a house can often be permitted development. Listed buildings are excluded, and listed building consent is separate. We check what applies to you.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone and we’ll gladly show you ours.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
