Local considerations in Greenock
Surveys in Greenock also cover the surrounding PA15 district and towns such as Helensburgh and Dunoon. It's roughly 20 miles from Greenock to Glasgow, the largest town in Greater Glasgow. West Central Scotland has sandstone tenements, interwar and post-war council housing including no-fines and other system-built types, and many harled (roughcast) houses.
Parts of Greater Glasgow 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.
For terraced homes in Greenock with attractive brick fronts, one approach is to insulate the front internally and the rear externally.

Approvals in Scotland
Internal insulation rarely needs planning permission; listed buildings need consent for internal changes.
Where a building warrant is needed for Greenock work, it's obtained before installation starts, and the quote says who arranges it.
What are the options for internal insulation?
- Insulated plasterboard — PIR or phenolic foam bonded to plasterboard, fixed to the wall and skimmed. Thinnest option.
- Insulated stud wall — a timber or metal frame filled with insulation, with a vapour control layer and plasterboard. Takes more space but runs services easily.
- Wood fibre and lime — breathable boards finished in lime plaster, for older walls that need to manage moisture.

Internal wall insulation in Greenock: questions
How much room space will I lose?
Usually 50–100mm on each insulated wall, depending on the system.
Can I stay in the house?
Yes, but each room is out of use while it's worked on, typically 3–5 days.
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.

Yes — we survey and quote internal wall insulation in Greenock (PA15) and nearby Helensburgh, Dunoon and Clydebank, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
