Before we quote in Peterhead
We also cover Inverurie and Aberdeen, close to Peterhead. It's roughly 27 miles from Peterhead to Aberdeen, the largest town in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. 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.
We bring brick slip samples to Peterhead surveys so you can compare them with neighbouring houses.

Permissions in Scotland
Scottish householder rules mean many Peterhead jobs that change the outside of a house need a planning application; we confirm the position before quoting.
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.
Are brick slips real brick?
They can be — cut or manufactured clay slips — or concrete and flexible polymer slips designed to look like brick. Clay slips are heavier and need systems rated for that weight.

Brick slip EWI in Peterhead: questions
Will brick slips match my neighbours' brick?
We source slips to get close in colour and texture and show samples beforehand, but an exact match to weathered brick isn't always possible.
Do brick slips fall off?
Not when installed to the system manufacturer's specification, with the right adhesive, fixings and pointing.
Can I mix brick slips and render?
Yes. A brick plinth or ground floor with render above is a common combination.
Do you cover Peterhead?
Yes — we survey and quote brick slip finishes in Peterhead (AB42) and nearby Inverurie, Aberdeen and Buckie, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
