Bow: walls, weather and approvals
We cover Bow and nearby Stratford, Canning Town and Leytonstone. London's housing includes a large stock of Victorian and Edwardian solid-wall terraces, inter-war semis and post-war blocks, and conservation areas cover many streets — so planning is often the first question for external work.
Much of Greater London sits in the lower wind-driven rain exposure bands, which keeps the choice of finishes wide — though hilltop, coastal and exposed gable walls can still need a tougher specification, so we check the actual site.
For Bow properties, the survey also confirms whether planning or building control is needed for your address.

Permissions in England
For a house in Bow, 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.
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.
