What we look for in Macclesfield
We also cover Wilmslow and Bramhall, close to Macclesfield. It's roughly 21 miles from Macclesfield to Warrington, the largest town in Cheshire. The North West has one of the largest stocks of pre-1919 solid-wall terraces in England, alongside Pennine stone houses and post-war estates.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Cheshire: 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.
Where a property in Macclesfield is in a conservation area or the front elevation must stay unchanged, internal insulation is often the practical route.

Planning and building control in England
Planning isn't usually involved with internal insulation. Building control is, once more than half of a wall is treated, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
Do I need Building Regulations approval?
Yes, in England and Wales once you insulate or replaster more than half of a wall's area (or more than a quarter of the building's whole envelope), it's treated as renovating a thermal element. The wall should reach about 0.30 W/m²K where practical, and building control needs to be involved.
