What we look for in Southampton
We also cover Hythe and Totton, close to Southampton. 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 Hampshire: 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.
For Southampton properties, the survey also confirms whether planning or building control is needed for your address.

Planning and building control in England
For a house in Southampton, 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.
Building control applies once more than half of a wall is insulated or re-rendered, or more than a quarter of the whole building envelope, and your written quote says how that's handled.
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 Southampton: questions
Can you quote from photos?
We can give a guide figure from photos and measurements, but a fixed price needs a visit.
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.
