Homes and walls in Derry~Londonderry

We also cover Strabane and Limavady, close to Derry~Londonderry.

Northern Ireland has many rendered and pebble-dashed homes, older solid-walled rural houses, and estates built by the Housing Executive.

Parts of County Londonderry 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.

Derry~Londonderry: questions

Do you cover Derry~Londonderry?

Yes — we survey and quote in Derry~Londonderry (BT48) and nearby Strabane, Limavady and Coleraine.

How much does external wall insulation cost in Derry~Londonderry?

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 Derry~Londonderry?

In Northern Ireland, permitted development is set by the 2015 Order; in Derry~Londonderry, changing a house's external appearance, and any work on flats or listed buildings, may need permission, so we check with the council.

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.
