What we look for in Kettering
Surveys in Kettering also cover the surrounding NN16 district and towns such as Wellingborough and Corby. It's roughly 12 miles from Kettering to Northampton, the largest town in Northamptonshire. Housing in the East Midlands includes Victorian terraces in the towns and cities, plenty of inter-war semis and post-war council estates, some of them system-built.
Much of Northamptonshire sits in the lower wind-driven rain exposure bands, which keeps the choice of finishes wide — though hilltop, coastal and exposed gable walls can still need a tougher specification, so we check the actual site.
We plan internal insulation in Kettering homes room by room so you keep the rest of the house usable.

England: planning and regulations
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.
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 Kettering: 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.
