Local considerations in Ayr
We also cover Irvine and Kilmarnock, close to Ayr. It's roughly 12 miles from Ayr to Kilmarnock, the largest town in Ayrshire. South West Scotland has stone and harled houses, coastal towns and post-war council housing.
Parts of Ayrshire 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.
Surveys in Ayr are booked at a time that suits you, with the written quote following afterwards.

Approvals in Scotland
For Ayr properties, flats and tenements need planning permission for external insulation, and a noticeable change of finish on a house often does too under Scottish rules.
Over-cladding work in Scotland often needs a building warrant from the council's building standards service, with Section 6 of the Technical Handbooks setting insulation benchmarks.
What happens during the survey?
We measure each elevation, photograph the details that affect the job, check the wall construction and look for damp, cracking and loose render. Ground levels and the damp-proof course are recorded so the system starts in the right place. Eaves depth, window cills, flues, meters, soil pipes, satellite dishes and lights are all noted because each one needs a detail.
