Planning and building control in Northern Ireland
Internal insulation rarely needs planning permission; listed buildings need consent for internal changes.
Council building control in Northern Ireland checks insulation work of this kind; the quote says how the application is handled.
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.
