Homes and walls in Greater Glasgow
West Central Scotland has sandstone tenements, interwar and post-war council housing including no-fines and other system-built types, and many harled (roughcast) houses.
Parts of Greater Glasgow 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.

Planning and building control in Scotland
In Scotland, householder permitted development rights are set by the Scottish GPDO and are narrower for external wall changes; insulating flats or tenements, changing the appearance of a house noticeably, or working in a conservation area usually needs planning permission. Listed buildings need listed building consent. Ask your council's planning team before committing.
Work that alters an external wall's construction is covered by the building standards system; many over-cladding projects need a building warrant from the council's building standards team, and Section 6 (Energy) of the Technical Handbooks sets insulation benchmarks.

Greater Glasgow: questions
Do you work across all of Greater Glasgow?
Yes — we survey and quote across Greater Glasgow, including Glasgow, Paisley, Greenock, Bearsden, Clydebank, Newton Mearns.
Do I need planning permission for external wall insulation in Greater Glasgow?
Scottish householder rules mean many Greater Glasgow jobs that change the outside of a house need a planning application; we confirm the position before quoting.
Are there grants for wall insulation in Scotland?
Home Energy Scotland's Grant and Loan can cover solid wall insulation for owner-occupiers (up to £7,500 grant plus an optional interest-free loan), but solid wall installers must be TrustMark registered for that scheme.
