Sale: walls, weather and approvals
We cover Sale and nearby Stretford, Urmston and Altrincham. Sale is about 5 miles from Manchester. 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 Greater Manchester: 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.
For terraced homes in Sale with attractive brick fronts, one approach is to insulate the front internally and the rear externally.

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.
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.
