What we look for in Stranraer
We cover Stranraer and the wider Dumfries and Galloway; island and remote addresses are surveyed by arrangement. South West Scotland has stone and harled houses, coastal towns and post-war council housing.
Parts of Dumfries and Galloway 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.
Extensions and new blockwork in Stranraer are where monocouche makes most sense.

Scotland: planning and regulations
For Stranraer properties, flats and tenements need planning permission for external insulation, and a noticeable change of finish on a house often does too under Scottish rules.
Where a building warrant is needed for Stranraer work, it's obtained before installation starts, and the quote says who arranges it.
Why does monocouche sometimes look patchy?
Colour variation (often called shading) can appear if it's applied in poor weather, on walls with uneven suction, or in sections on different days. Working an elevation in one go in suitable conditions keeps the colour even.
