What we look for in Chippenham
We also cover Trowbridge and Bath, close to Chippenham. It's roughly 16 miles from Chippenham to Swindon, the largest town in Wiltshire. The South West has many stone and solid-walled cottages, exposed coastal properties and a share of post-war system-built houses, including types such as the Cornish Unit.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Wiltshire: 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 Chippenham, slips can insulate the wall while keeping the street's look.

England: planning and regulations
Planning in Chippenham 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.
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 Chippenham: questions
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.
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 Chippenham?
Yes — we survey and quote brick slip finishes in Chippenham (SN15) and nearby Trowbridge, Bath and Chipping Sodbury, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
