What we look for in County Tyrone
Northern Ireland has many rendered and pebble-dashed homes, older solid-walled rural houses, and estates built by the Housing Executive.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across County Tyrone: 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.
Where one half of a pair in County Tyrone is insulated and the other isn't, we detail the boundary so the neighbour can join later.

Northern Ireland: planning and regulations
In Northern Ireland, permitted development is set by the Planning (General Permitted Development) Order (NI) 2015. Changing the external appearance of a house may need permission, and conservation areas, flats, commercial buildings and listed buildings need planning permission or listed building consent. Check with your council's planning office.
Insulating external walls is building work under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012, handled by council building control, with Technical Booklet F1 covering conservation of fuel and power in dwellings.
What does the work involve?
After checking the wall condition, any spalling concrete or corroded steel is reported before boards go on. Fixings are chosen for the substrate — concrete, steel-framed panels or mixed constructions — and the system is detailed around eaves, cills and the junction with neighbouring properties, which may not be insulated.

Non-traditional houses in County Tyrone: questions
What if my neighbour isn't insulating?
We finish the system neatly at the boundary with a closing detail so the neighbouring house isn't affected and can be joined later.
Can you insulate a Wimpey no-fines house?
Yes. No-fines houses have solid poured-concrete walls with no cavity, so EWI is the usual route. The survey checks the concrete condition first.
Can you put EWI on a BISF house?
Yes, with care. The steel frame and upper-storey cladding need a system and fixing method designed for that construction, and the condition of the frame should be understood first.
Do you cover all of County Tyrone?
Yes. We survey and quote non-traditional house insulation across County Tyrone, including Omagh, Dungannon, Strabane, Cookstown.
Do I need planning permission in Northern Ireland?
In Northern Ireland, permitted development is set by the Planning (General Permitted Development) Order (NI) 2015. We check your address before quoting.
