Local considerations in Hove
We cover Hove and nearby Brighton, Portslade and Burgess Hill. 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.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across East Sussex: 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.
Surveys in Hove are booked at a time that suits you, with the written quote following afterwards.

Approvals in England
For a house in Hove, external insulation or render is often permitted development if it looks similar to the existing walls; conservation areas, flats, commercial buildings and listed buildings need permission or consent, so we check your address first.
If the work covers more than half of a wall, or a quarter of the building's whole envelope, it counts as renovating a thermal element, with a target of about 0.30 W/m²K where feasible.
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.

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