What we look for in Hove
We also cover Brighton and Portslade, close to Hove. 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 East 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.
We plan internal insulation in Hove homes room by room so you keep the rest of the house usable.

Permissions in England
Internal insulation rarely needs planning permission, but in England and Wales insulating or replastering more than half of a wall's area involves building control, and listed buildings need consent for internal changes that affect their character.
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.

Internal wall insulation in Hove: questions
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.
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.
Do you cover Hove?
Yes — we survey and quote internal wall insulation in Hove (BN3) and nearby Brighton, Portslade and Burgess Hill, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
