Before we quote in Oban
Surveys in Oban (PA34) are arranged around travel to the wider Argyll and Bute. The Highlands and Islands have many exposed stone and harled homes, timber-framed houses and scattered rural properties.
Parts of Argyll and Bute fall in the higher wind-driven rain exposure bands, especially coastal and upland sites, so render specification, movement joints and detailing at cills, verges and the base of the wall matter more than usual.
Low-level impact damage near drives and bins is a typical EWI repair, and we fix it in Oban with compatible materials.

Scotland: planning and regulations
Small repairs and cleaning in Oban normally need no approvals. Listed buildings are the exception — even minor external work can need consent.
How is damaged EWI repaired?
The damaged area is cut back to sound render and board. Wet or crushed insulation is replaced, a new base coat with overlapping mesh is applied, then primer and a matching finish. The repair overlaps the existing mesh so it's reinforced like the original.

EWI repairs in Oban: questions
My EWI was installed under a grant — who repairs it?
First check the guarantee paperwork and contact the original installer or guarantee provider. If that route isn't available, we can quote.
Will the repair be visible?
Usually slightly, because the existing finish has weathered. A recoat of the elevation evens it out.
Why is my EWI cracking?
Common causes are missing movement joints, poor mesh overlap, fixing problems or movement in the wall. We look for the cause rather than filling the crack.
Do you cover Oban?
Yes — we survey and quote EWI repairs in Oban (PA34); island and remote addresses are surveyed by arrangement, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
