Homes and walls in Glasgow

We cover Glasgow and nearby Rutherglen, Bishopbriggs and Bearsden.

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.

Approvals in Scotland

For Glasgow 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.

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

Glasgow: questions

Do you cover Glasgow?

Yes — we survey and quote in Glasgow (G1) and nearby Rutherglen, Bishopbriggs and Bearsden.

How much does external wall insulation cost in Glasgow?

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 Glasgow?

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

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.
