Homes and walls in Ilford
Surveys in Ilford also cover the surrounding IG1 district and towns such as Barking and Becontree.
London's housing includes a large stock of Victorian and Edwardian solid-wall terraces, inter-war semis and post-war blocks, and conservation areas cover many streets — so planning is often the first question for external work.
Much of Greater London sits in the lower wind-driven rain exposure bands, which keeps the choice of finishes wide — though hilltop, coastal and exposed gable walls can still need a tougher specification, so we check the actual site.

Approvals in England
Before quoting in Ilford, we check whether the property is in a conservation area, under an Article 4 direction or listed, because that decides whether changing the outside needs planning permission.
Building control applies once more than half of a wall is insulated or re-rendered, or more than a quarter of the whole building envelope, and your written quote says how that's handled.

Yes — we survey and quote in Ilford (IG1) and nearby Barking, Becontree and Leytonstone.
How much does external wall insulation cost in Ilford?
Our guide is £105–£170 per m² depending on the system, plus scaffolding — roughly £10,200–£17,700 for a typical three-bed semi with EPS and silicone render. Installing insulation in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027, so that's the total. A free survey fixes the price.
Do I need planning permission in Ilford?
Planning in Ilford follows England's national rules: similar-looking finishes on houses are usually permitted, while flats, commercial premises, conservation areas and streets under an Article 4 direction need an application.
Is VAT charged on wall insulation?
Installing wall insulation in homes is zero-rated until 31 March 2027, then 5%, so our insulation prices are totals. Render-only work and repairs carry VAT at 20%, and our prices for them include it.
