What's included

What we look for in Caerphilly
As well as Caerphilly itself, we quote in Risca, Pontypridd and Cardiff. Caerphilly sits around 9 miles from Newport (Gwent). South Wales has long runs of solid-wall valley terraces, Victorian and Edwardian town housing and post-war council estates.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Gwent: 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 Caerphilly is insulated and the other isn't, we detail the boundary so the neighbour can join later.

Wales: planning and regulations
We check Caerphilly addresses for conservation areas and listing before quoting, because Welsh permitted development rules don't cover every external change.
Building control in Wales applies to most insulation and re-rendering jobs of this size; the quote states who submits the notice.
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 Caerphilly: questions
Will EWI make my house mortgageable?
It can make a house more attractive and better insulated, but it does not replace a certified structural repair where a lender requires one. Ask your lender before relying on it.
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.
Do you cover Caerphilly?
Yes — we survey and quote non-traditional house insulation in Caerphilly (CF83) and nearby Risca, Pontypridd and Cardiff, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
