Before we quote in Leicester
We cover Leicester and nearby Oadby, Wigston and Loughborough. Housing in the East Midlands includes Victorian terraces in the towns and cities, plenty of inter-war semis and post-war council estates, some of them system-built.
Much of Leicestershire 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.
If you're comparing quotes in Leicester, the written specification makes it easier to compare like for like.

Permissions in England
For a house in Leicester, 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.
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.
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 Leicester: questions
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.
How long does the survey take?
Usually 45–90 minutes for a house. Blocks and commercial buildings take longer.
Do you cover Leicester?
Yes — we survey and quote EWI and render surveys in Leicester (LE1) and nearby Oadby, Wigston and Loughborough, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
