Before we quote in Belfast
Surveys in Belfast also cover the surrounding BT1 district and towns such as Castlereagh and Newtownabbey. Northern Ireland has many rendered and pebble-dashed homes, older solid-walled rural houses, and estates built by the Housing Executive.
Parts of County Antrim 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.
For Belfast properties, the survey also confirms whether planning or building control is needed for your address.

Planning and building control in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, permitted development is set by the 2015 Order; in Belfast, changing a house's external appearance, and any work on flats or listed buildings, may need permission, so we check with the council.
Building control applies to insulation and major re-rendering in Northern Ireland, and the work is signed off by the council.
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.

How long does the survey take?
Usually 45–90 minutes for a house. Blocks and commercial buildings take longer.
