What we look for in Cumbernauld
Surveys in Cumbernauld also cover the surrounding G67 district and towns such as Airdrie and Coatbridge. Cumbernauld is about 15 miles from East Kilbride. West Central Scotland has sandstone tenements, interwar and post-war council housing including no-fines and other system-built types, and many harled (roughcast) houses.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Lanarkshire: 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.
On brick terraces in Cumbernauld, slips can insulate the wall while keeping the street's look.

Scotland: planning and regulations
Scottish householder rules mean many Cumbernauld jobs that change the outside of a house need a planning application; we confirm the position before quoting.
Where a building warrant is needed for Cumbernauld work, it's obtained before installation starts, and the quote says who arranges it.
How is the brick slip system built up?
Insulation boards are fixed as for any EWI, followed by a reinforced base coat. The slips are bonded with the system adhesive, spaced for joints, then pointed. Corners use L-shaped slips so the edge looks like a solid brick.

Brick slip EWI in Cumbernauld: questions
Is a brick slip finish more expensive?
Yes — roughly £70–£120 per m² more than render, because of materials and slower installation.
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.
Do you cover Cumbernauld?
Yes — we survey and quote brick slip finishes in Cumbernauld (G67) and nearby Airdrie, Coatbridge and Falkirk, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
