Homes and walls in Llanelli
We cover Llanelli and nearby Gorseinon, Swansea and Ammanford. West Wales has a high share of older solid-walled and stone homes, many in exposed coastal or rural settings.
Parts of Dyfed 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.
Where a home in Llanelli is system-built, the first job is confirming the construction type.

Planning and building control in Wales
For homes in Llanelli, the local planning authority decides any borderline cases; changing a brick house to render, or work on flats, usually needs an application in Wales.
In Wales, insulating or re-rendering more than half of a wall's area is treated as renovating a thermal element under Approved Document L (Wales), so building control is involved before work starts.
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 Llanelli: questions
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.
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 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 Llanelli?
Yes — we survey and quote non-traditional house insulation in Llanelli (SA15) and nearby Gorseinon, Swansea and Ammanford, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
