Homes and walls in East Riding of Yorkshire
Yorkshire's housing includes stone and brick terraces, back-to-backs in parts of West Yorkshire, and post-war estates with steel-framed and concrete house types.
Much of East Riding of Yorkshire 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.
We plan EWI in East Riding of Yorkshire around the details that cause trouble later — cills, eaves, downpipes and the base of the wall above the damp-proof course.

Permissions in England
For houses, external wall insulation and render are often permitted development where the finish looks similar to the existing walls. Planning permission is usually needed in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads and World Heritage Sites (where cladding a house in stone, artificial stone, pebble dash, render, timber, plastic or tiles isn't permitted development), for flats and maisonettes, for commercial buildings, under an Article 4 direction, or where the look changes noticeably. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
Renovating more than half of a wall's area — insulating it, or stripping and re-rendering it — or more than a quarter of the building's whole external envelope brings in the energy requirements of Part L, so building control needs to be involved and the wall should reach about 0.30 W/m²K where that's technically, functionally and economically feasible.
What does the survey check before EWI is specified?
- Wall construction and condition, including any damp, cracking or loose render
- Ground levels and the damp-proof course, so the system starts above splash height
- Eaves depth, verges and whether the roofline needs extending
- Window positions, cill depths and reveal space
- Services on the wall: gas, electric meters, flues, soil pipes, satellite dishes and lights
- Planning and Building Regulations position for your property and nation
