Before we quote in Rochester
We cover Rochester and nearby Chatham, Strood and Gillingham. Rochester is about 8 miles from Maidstone. 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.
Much of Kent 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 Rochester are booked at a time that suits you, with the written quote following afterwards.

Planning and building control in England
Before quoting in Rochester, 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.
What do I get afterwards?
A written quote listing the system (board, thickness and finish), the detailing included, scaffolding, any repairs found, exclusions, the VAT treatment and the expected programme. Where planning or building control is needed, the quote says so and who handles it.

Survey and quote in Rochester: 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.
Do you cover Rochester?
Yes — we survey and quote EWI and render surveys in Rochester (ME1) and nearby Chatham, Strood and Gillingham, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
