Homes and walls in Crawley
We also cover Horley and Horsham, close to Crawley. 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.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across West Sussex: sheltered town streets fare better than walls on high ground or facing the prevailing weather, and the render, beads and cill details are chosen with that in mind.
For houses in Crawley with shallow eaves, the insulated render thickness is planned with the roofline in mind.

Approvals in England
Planning in Crawley follows England's national rules: similar-looking finishes on houses are usually permitted, while flats, commercial premises, conservation areas and streets under an Article 4 direction need an application.
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 texture will it have?
Thin-coat renders come in grain sizes, typically 1–2mm. A 1.5mm grain is a common middle ground: fine enough to look smooth from the street, coarse enough to hide minor imperfections.

Insulated render in Crawley: questions
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.
Can insulated render be applied in winter?
Only in suitable weather — typically above 5°C and rising, with no frost or rain during curing. Winter programmes allow for lost days.
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.
Do you cover Crawley?
Yes — we survey and quote insulated render in Crawley (RH11) and nearby Horley, Horsham and East Grinstead, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
