What the job covers

- Thin slips (typically 10–20mm) bonded to the system base coat
Homes and walls in Amersham
We also cover Chesham and Chalfont St Peter, close to Amersham. Amersham sits around 27 miles from Milton Keynes. Homes across the South East range from inter-war semis and post-war estates, which are mostly cavity-walled, to older solid-walled cottages and Victorian town terraces.
Much of Buckinghamshire sits in the lower wind-driven rain exposure bands, which keeps the choice of finishes wide — though hilltop, coastal and exposed gable walls can still need a tougher specification, so we check the actual site.
We bring brick slip samples to Amersham surveys so you can compare them with neighbouring houses.

Planning and building control in England
Before quoting in Amersham, we check whether the property is in a conservation area, under an Article 4 direction or listed, because that decides whether changing the outside needs planning permission.
Insulating or re-rendering more than half of a wall's area brings in Part L of the Building Regulations, so building control is notified and the wall is upgraded to about 0.30 W/m²K where practical.
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.
