Homes and walls in Aberdeen

We also cover Inverurie and Peterhead, close to Aberdeen.

North East Scotland has granite and stone-built homes, harled cottages and post-war estates, with exposed coastal settings along much of it.

Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire: sheltered town streets fare better than walls on high ground or facing the prevailing weather, and the render, beads and cill details are chosen with that in mind.

Approvals in Scotland

In Scotland, permitted development for external wall changes is narrower, so in Aberdeen we check with the council's planning team where the appearance changes, and always for flats, tenements and conservation areas.

Where a building warrant is needed for Aberdeen work, it's obtained before installation starts, and the quote says who arranges it.

Do I need planning permission in Aberdeen?
