Before we quote in Shrewsbury
Surveys in Shrewsbury also cover the surrounding SY1 district and towns such as Wellington and Telford. It's roughly 13 miles from Shrewsbury to Telford, the largest town in Shropshire. The West Midlands has large numbers of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, inter-war semis and post-war council estates, including concrete and steel-framed house types.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Shropshire: 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 monocouche in Shrewsbury for settled weather so each elevation can be finished in one go.

Approvals in England
For a house in Shrewsbury, external insulation or render is often permitted development if it looks similar to the existing walls; conservation areas, flats, commercial buildings and listed buildings need permission or consent, so we check your address first.
If the work covers more than half of a wall, or a quarter of the building's whole envelope, it counts as renovating a thermal element, with a target of about 0.30 W/m²K where feasible.
Can monocouche go over insulation?
No — insulation systems use a mesh-reinforced base coat and a thin-coat finish instead. If you want insulation as well as a new finish, see insulated render.
