Homes and walls in Didcot
We cover Didcot and nearby Abingdon, Oxford and Thatcham. Didcot is about 10 miles from Oxford. 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 Oxfordshire 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 Didcot are booked at a time that suits you, with the written quote following afterwards.

Permissions in England
For a house in Didcot, 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.

Survey and quote in Didcot: 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.
Can you quote from photos?
We can give a guide figure from photos and measurements, but a fixed price needs a visit.
How long is the quote valid?
The quote states its validity period, usually 30 days, because material prices change.
