Part of every quote
- Steel-framed BISF houses need care around the upper-storey cladding
- EWI is not a structural repair for PRC houses designated defective
- Fixing design depends on the panel or frame behind the wall
- The survey identifies the construction type before anything is specified
- EWI improves comfort and can renew a tired concrete exterior
What we look for in Warwickshire
The West Midlands has large numbers of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, inter-war semis and post-war council estates, including concrete and steel-framed house types.
Much of Warwickshire 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.
Where one half of a pair in Warwickshire is insulated and the other isn't, we detail the boundary so the neighbour can join later.

Approvals in England
For houses, external wall insulation and render are often permitted development where the finish looks similar to the existing walls. Planning permission is usually needed in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads and World Heritage Sites (where cladding a house in stone, artificial stone, pebble dash, render, timber, plastic or tiles isn't permitted development), for flats and maisonettes, for commercial buildings, under an Article 4 direction, or where the look changes noticeably. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
Renovating more than half of a wall's area — insulating it, or stripping and re-rendering it — or more than a quarter of the building's whole external envelope brings in the energy requirements of Part L, so building control needs to be involved and the wall should reach about 0.30 W/m²K where that's technically, functionally and economically feasible.
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 Warwickshire: 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.
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.
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.
Do you cover all of Warwickshire?
Yes. We survey and quote non-traditional house insulation across Warwickshire, including Leamington Spa, Nuneaton, Redditch, Rugby, Warwick.
Do I need planning permission in England?
For houses, external wall insulation and render are often permitted development where the finish looks similar to the existing walls. We check your address before quoting.
