Homes and walls in Sandown
Surveys in Sandown also cover the surrounding PO36 district and towns such as Ryde and Newport (Isle of Wight). It's roughly 5 miles from Sandown to Ryde, the largest town in Isle of Wight. 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.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Isle of Wight: 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 Sandown surveys so you can compare them with neighbouring houses.

Planning and building control in England
Planning in Sandown 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.
Building control applies once more than half of a wall is insulated or re-rendered, or more than a quarter of the whole building envelope, and your written quote says how that's handled.
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 Sandown: questions
Can I mix brick slips and render?
Yes. A brick plinth or ground floor with render above is a common combination.
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.
Is a brick slip finish more expensive?
Yes — roughly £70–£120 per m² more than render, because of materials and slower installation.
Do you cover Sandown?
Yes — we survey and quote brick slip finishes in Sandown (PO36) and nearby Ryde, Newport (Isle of Wight) and Cowes, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
