Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Dundee and Angus: 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.

Planning and building control in Scotland
For Forfar 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.
Where a building warrant is needed for Forfar work, it's obtained before installation starts, and the quote says who arranges it.
Is the survey really free?
For installation quotes, yes, with no obligation. Detailed condition reports on existing render or EWI — for example for a purchase, a dispute or a warranty claim — are a separate paid service, priced up front.

How long does the survey take?
Usually 45–90 minutes for a house. Blocks and commercial buildings take longer.
Do I need to be home?

Can you quote from photos?
We can give a guide figure from photos and measurements, but a fixed price needs a visit.
