What we look for in Denton
Surveys in Denton also cover the surrounding M34 district and towns such as Hyde and Droylsden. It's roughly 5 miles from Denton to Manchester, the largest town in Greater Manchester. The North West has one of the largest stocks of pre-1919 solid-wall terraces in England, alongside Pennine stone houses and post-war estates.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Greater Manchester: 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 Denton surveys so you can compare them with neighbouring houses.

England: planning and regulations
Planning in Denton follows England's national rules: similar-looking finishes on houses are usually permitted, while flats, commercial premises, conservation areas and streets under an Article 4 direction need an application.
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.
Why choose brick slips over render?
Permitted development for houses in England and Wales generally expects materials of a similar appearance to the existing walls. On a brick terrace or estate, render can change the street scene, while brick slips keep it. Some owners simply prefer the brick look.

Brick slip EWI in Denton: questions

Do brick slips fall off?
Not when installed to the system manufacturer's specification, with the right adhesive, fixings and pointing.

Yes — roughly £70–£120 per m² more than render, because of materials and slower installation.
