Before we quote in Reigate
Surveys in Reigate also cover the surrounding RH2 district and towns such as Redhill and Horley. Reigate sits around 16 miles from Woking. Homes across the South East range from inter-war semis and post-war estates, which are mostly cavity-walled, to older solid-walled cottages and Victorian town terraces.
Much of Surrey sits in the lower wind-driven rain exposure bands, which keeps the choice of finishes wide — though hilltop, coastal and exposed gable walls can still need a tougher specification, so we check the actual site.
For concrete houses in Reigate, we report any visible spalling or cracking before quoting the insulation, not after.

Approvals in England
For a house in Reigate, 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.
Does EWI fix mortgage problems with PRC houses?
Not on its own. Some precast reinforced concrete (PRC) house types were designated defective, and many lenders want a certified structural repair before they will lend. Insulation and render over the outside is not that repair. Other types, such as Wimpey no-fines, are generally treated differently. If mortgageability matters, speak to your lender or a surveyor before booking any work.

Non-traditional houses in Reigate: 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.
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 Reigate?
Yes — we survey and quote non-traditional house insulation in Reigate (RH2) and nearby Redhill, Horley and Banstead, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
