Before we quote in Dover
We cover Dover and nearby Folkestone, Deal and Canterbury. Dover sits around 36 miles from Maidstone. Homes across the South East range from inter-war semis and post-war estates, which are mostly cavity-walled, to older solid-walled cottages and Victorian town terraces.
Much of Kent 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.
EWI repairs in Dover start with finding where water or damage got in, not just covering it.

Planning and building control in England
Repairs, cleaning and like-for-like patching don't usually need planning permission or building control. If repairs grow into re-rendering more than half of a wall, Building Regulations energy rules can apply.
What causes EWI to fail?
Most problems start at details: cills that are too short or not sealed, unsealed pipe penetrations, missing drip beads, ground levels too close to the base track, or impact at low level. Where a defect is widespread, we report the likely cause before quoting.

EWI repairs in Dover: questions
Will the repair be visible?
Usually slightly, because the existing finish has weathered. A recoat of the elevation evens it out.
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.
Do you cover Dover?
Yes — we survey and quote EWI repairs in Dover (CT16) and nearby Folkestone, Deal and Canterbury, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
