Homes and walls in Peterhead
Surveys in Peterhead also cover the surrounding AB42 district and towns such as Inverurie and Aberdeen. Peterhead is about 27 miles from Aberdeen. North East Scotland has granite and stone-built homes, harled cottages and post-war estates, with exposed coastal settings along much of it.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire: 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.
We plan internal insulation in Peterhead homes room by room so you keep the rest of the house usable.

Scotland: planning and regulations
Internal insulation rarely needs planning permission; listed buildings need consent for internal changes.
Where a building warrant is needed for Peterhead work, it's obtained before installation starts, and the quote says who arranges it.
What are the risks with internal insulation?
Insulating inside makes the masonry colder, so moisture risk rises. Weak points are where floor joists bear into the wall, window reveals and corners. A condensation risk check for the build-up, a continuous vapour control layer where specified, and returning insulation into reveals deal with most of it.

Internal wall insulation in Peterhead: questions
Is internal insulation cheaper than external?
Per m² usually yes, but the cost of moving fittings and redecorating narrows the gap on whole-house jobs.
How much room space will I lose?
Usually 50–100mm on each insulated wall, depending on the system.
What happens to my radiators and sockets?
They're taken off and refitted on the new wall face. Electrical work is done by a qualified electrician.
