What we look for in Ebbw Vale
Surveys in Ebbw Vale also cover the surrounding NP23 district and towns such as Merthyr Tydfil and Pontypool. Ebbw Vale is about 16 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 Ebbw Vale is insulated and the other isn't, we detail the boundary so the neighbour can join later.

Permissions in Wales
For homes in Ebbw Vale, the local planning authority decides any borderline cases; changing a brick house to render, or work on flats, usually needs an application in Wales.
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 Ebbw Vale: 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 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.
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.
Do you cover Ebbw Vale?
Yes — we survey and quote non-traditional house insulation in Ebbw Vale (NP23) and nearby Merthyr Tydfil, Pontypool and Abergavenny, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
