Brighton: walls, weather and approvals
As well as Brighton itself, we quote in Hove, Portslade and Burgess Hill. 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 East Sussex: 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.
Schools and community buildings around Brighton are usually phased by elevation, with noisy stages in holidays where possible.

Planning and building control in England
For a house in Brighton, external insulation or render is often permitted development if it looks similar to the existing walls; conservation areas, flats, commercial buildings and listed buildings need permission or consent, so we check your address first.
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.
On residential buildings with a storey 11 metres or more above ground, guidance points to non-combustible external wall materials, and combustible materials are banned in relevant buildings 18 metres and over, so we specify mineral wool systems there.
How is the work programmed?
Work is split by elevation so entrances and fire exits stay usable. For schools, noisy and access-heavy stages are planned around holidays where possible. Health and safety duties under CDM 2015 are agreed at the start, including who acts as principal contractor.
