Local considerations in Antrim
We also cover Ballymena and Newtownabbey, close to Antrim. Antrim is about 14 miles from Belfast. Northern Ireland has many rendered and pebble-dashed homes, older solid-walled rural houses, and estates built by the Housing Executive.
Parts of County Antrim fall in the higher wind-driven rain exposure bands, especially coastal and upland sites, so render specification, movement joints and detailing at cills, verges and the base of the wall matter more than usual.
For houses in Antrim with shallow eaves, the insulated render thickness is planned with the roofline in mind.

Northern Ireland: planning and regulations
For Antrim homes, the council's planning office has the final say on external changes; conservation areas, flats and listed buildings need an application or consent.
Council building control in Northern Ireland checks insulation work of this kind; the quote says how the application is handled.
Is insulated render the same as EWI?
Yes — insulated render is the everyday name for a rendered EWI system. Some people also use it for thin thermal renders containing aerogel or cork, which are applied 20–40mm thick on heritage walls. They insulate far less than board systems, so we treat them as a specialist option.

Insulated render in Antrim: questions
Will my house look different?
Yes, if it was brick or pebble dash. If you want to keep a brick look, a brick-slip finish over the insulation is an option.
How long does insulated render last?
Typically 25–30 years or more with maintenance; the manufacturer's documentation sets the service life for the specific system.
Does insulated render need painting?
Through-coloured silicone and acrylic renders don't need painting. Mineral renders are usually painted with a compatible masonry paint.
