Local considerations in New Malden
Surveys in New Malden also cover the surrounding KT3 district and towns such as Surbiton and Morden. London's housing includes a large stock of Victorian and Edwardian solid-wall terraces, inter-war semis and post-war blocks, and conservation areas cover many streets — so planning is often the first question for external work.
Much of Greater London sits in the lower wind-driven rain exposure bands, which keeps the choice of finishes wide — though hilltop, coastal and exposed gable walls can still need a tougher specification, so we check the actual site.
We provide drawings and finish samples for planning applications on New Malden commercial buildings.

England: planning and regulations
For a house in New Malden, 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.

Commercial EWI in New Malden: questions
Do you handle the planning application?
We provide the technical information, drawings and samples an application needs; your agent or our designer can submit it.
Is VAT 0% on commercial insulation?
Usually not. The zero rate covers insulation installed in residential accommodation and, since 1 February 2024, buildings used solely for a relevant charitable purpose, such as many charity-run village halls. Other commercial work is standard-rated.
Can the building stay open during the works?
Usually, yes. The work is phased and the scaffold layout keeps entrances and escape routes clear.
Do you cover New Malden?
Yes — we survey and quote commercial external wall insulation in New Malden (KT3) and nearby Surbiton, Morden and Wimbledon, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
