Homes and walls in Portslade
Surveys in Portslade also cover the surrounding BN41 district and towns such as Hove and Brighton. Portslade is about 3 miles from Brighton. 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.

Approvals in England
Before quoting in Portslade, we check whether the property is in a conservation area, under an Article 4 direction or listed, because that decides whether changing the outside needs planning permission.
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.
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.

Survey and quote in Portslade: questions
How long does the survey take?
Usually 45–90 minutes for a house. Blocks and commercial buildings take longer.
How long is the quote valid?
The quote states its validity period, usually 30 days, because material prices change.
Do I need to be home?
Ideally yes, so we can check inside for damp and look at window reveals, but rear and side access is the main thing.
