Northolt: walls, weather and approvals
We cover Northolt and nearby Greenford, Harrow and Southall. 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.
Surveys in Northolt are booked at a time that suits you, with the written quote following afterwards.

Planning and building control in England
Planning in Northolt follows England's national rules: similar-looking finishes on houses are usually permitted, while flats, commercial premises, conservation areas and streets under an Article 4 direction need an application.
Insulating or re-rendering more than half of a wall's area brings in Part L of the Building Regulations, so building control is notified and the wall is upgraded to about 0.30 W/m²K where practical.
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 Northolt: questions
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?
Ideally yes, so we can check inside for damp and look at window reveals, but rear and side access is the main thing.
How long is the quote valid?
The quote states its validity period, usually 30 days, because material prices change.
