Local considerations in Tyne and Wear
The North East has many solid brick terraces, including former colliery housing, plus post-war council estates with some system-built homes.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Tyne and Wear: 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.

England: planning and regulations
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.
Listed buildings are the exception: even small external repairs can need listed building consent, so tell us if your property is listed.
Do you repair systems you didn't install?
Yes. We identify the system type where possible and use compatible materials. If your system is under a manufacturer's or installer's guarantee, check its terms before any third party works on it.

EWI repairs in Tyne and Wear: questions
Can damaged EWI be patched?
Yes, provided the board behind is dry and sound. Wet or crushed board is cut out and replaced.
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.
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 all of Tyne and Wear?
Yes. We survey and quote EWI repairs across Tyne and Wear, including Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, South Shields, Gateshead, Washington.
Do I need planning permission in England?
For houses, external wall insulation and render are often permitted development where the finish looks similar to the existing walls. We check your address before quoting.
