Before we quote in Limavady
Surveys in Limavady also cover the surrounding BT49 district and towns such as Coleraine and Derry~Londonderry. Limavady sits around 15 miles from Derry~Londonderry. Northern Ireland has many rendered and pebble-dashed homes, older solid-walled rural houses, and estates built by the Housing Executive.
Parts of County Londonderry 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.
We plan internal insulation in Limavady homes room by room so you keep the rest of the house usable.

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.
