Homes and walls in Lisburn
Surveys in Lisburn also cover the surrounding BT27 district and towns such as Belfast and Castlereagh. It's roughly 7 miles from Lisburn to Belfast, the largest town in County Antrim. Northern Ireland has many rendered and pebble-dashed homes, older solid-walled rural houses, and estates built by the Housing Executive.
Parts of County Antrim 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.
On brick terraces in Lisburn, slips can insulate the wall while keeping the street's look.

Approvals in Northern Ireland
For Lisburn homes, the council's planning office has the final say on external changes; conservation areas, flats and listed buildings need an application or consent.
Building control applies to insulation and major re-rendering in Northern Ireland, and the work is signed off by the council.
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 Lisburn: questions
Is a brick slip finish more expensive?
Yes — roughly £70–£120 per m² more than render, because of materials and slower installation.
Do brick slips fall off?
Not when installed to the system manufacturer's specification, with the right adhesive, fixings and pointing.
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 you cover Lisburn?
Yes — we survey and quote brick slip finishes in Lisburn (BT27) and nearby Belfast, Castlereagh and Newtownabbey, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
