What we look for in Edinburgh
We also cover Musselburgh and Kirkcaldy, close to Edinburgh. 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.
EWI repairs in Edinburgh start with finding where water or damage got in, not just covering it.

Scotland: planning and regulations
Repairs, cleaning and like-for-like patching don't usually need planning permission. If the work grows into replacing most of a wall's render, we check with the council's building standards or building control team first.
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 Edinburgh: 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.
Can damaged EWI be patched?
Yes, provided the board behind is dry and sound. Wet or crushed board is cut out and replaced.
Will the repair be visible?
Usually slightly, because the existing finish has weathered. A recoat of the elevation evens it out.
Do you cover Edinburgh?
Yes — we survey and quote EWI repairs in Edinburgh (EH1) and nearby Musselburgh, Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
