Local knowledge

Building in Marks Gate

Homes in Barking and Dagenham

The Becontree estate, built between the wars as cottage-style council housing, accounts for a large part of the borough's homes: brick and rendered terraces in short rows with front and back gardens. Barking has some Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the centre, and Barking Riverside is a major area of new houses and flats.

Planning and the council

Much of the borough is the inter-war Becontree estate, where houses were built to a uniform design, so it is worth checking with the council before changing porches, windows or front boundaries. Corner plots and narrow frontages can make dropped kerb applications less straightforward.

What we are asked for most

Front garden driveways with dropped kerbs, single-storey rear extensions on terraced houses, kitchen and bathroom refurbishments, loft conversions and landlord repairs and maintenance.
