Homes and walls in Rhyl
We cover Rhyl and nearby Colwyn Bay, Llandudno and Flint. It's roughly 28 miles from Rhyl to Wrexham, the largest town in Clwyd. North Wales has many solid stone and slate-built homes, Victorian seaside terraces and post-war council estates.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Clwyd: 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.
Where eaves are shallow on a house in Rhyl, grey EPS can sometimes avoid the cost of extending the roofline.

Permissions in Wales
Householder rules in Wales are similar to England's: in Rhyl, a similar-looking finish on a house is often permitted, but conservation areas, flats and listed buildings need permission or consent.
Welsh Building Regulations expect walls to be upgraded when a substantial area is renewed, and building control signs the work off.
How thick does the board need to be?
On a 225mm solid brick wall, around 90mm of grey EPS or 100–110mm of white EPS typically gets close to 0.30 W/m²K. Stone walls, concrete panels and hollow-block walls start from different points, so the system supplier's calculation for your wall sets the final thickness.

EPS insulation in Rhyl: questions
Is EPS insulation safe on a house?
EPS is used inside render systems that are fire-tested as a whole. On low-rise houses it is widely used. On taller buildings, or where guidance calls for non-combustible materials, mineral wool systems are specified instead.
How long does EPS last on a wall?
The board itself doesn't degrade when protected by the render system. Service life depends on the render, sealants and detailing, typically 25–30 years or more with maintenance.
White or grey EPS?
Grey graphite EPS insulates better per millimetre, so it is the pick where space is tight at the eaves or around windows. White EPS is slightly cheaper and works well where the extra thickness isn't a problem.
