Before we quote in Musselburgh
Surveys in Musselburgh also cover the surrounding EH21 district and towns such as Edinburgh and Kirkcaldy. It's roughly 6 miles from Musselburgh to Edinburgh, the largest town in Edinburgh and the Lothians. East Central Scotland mixes stone tenements and terraces with post-war council housing and harled bungalows and semis.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Edinburgh and the Lothians: 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.
For commercial premises in Musselburgh, we programme the work around opening hours so the building can keep trading.

Scotland: planning and regulations
In Scotland, permitted development for external wall changes is narrower, so in Musselburgh we check with the council's planning team where the appearance changes, and always for flats, tenements and conservation areas.
Where a building warrant is needed for Musselburgh work, it's obtained before installation starts, and the quote says who arranges it.
Scotland restricts combustible cladding on buildings with a storey more than 11 metres above ground, so taller buildings get non-combustible systems.
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.
