Homes and walls in Kilmarnock

We cover Kilmarnock and nearby Irvine, Ayr and Newton Mearns.

South West Scotland has stone and harled houses, coastal towns and post-war council housing.

Parts of Ayrshire fall in the higher wind-driven rain exposure bands, especially coastal and upland sites, so render specification, movement joints and detailing at cills, verges and the base of the wall matter more than usual.

Approvals in Scotland

For Kilmarnock properties, flats and tenements need planning permission for external insulation, and a noticeable change of finish on a house often does too under Scottish rules.

Over-cladding work in Scotland often needs a building warrant from the council's building standards service, with Section 6 of the Technical Handbooks setting insulation benchmarks.
