Permissions in Scotland
Park homes are governed by the site licence rather than householder planning rules, so the key check in your park is the licence's spacing between homes and any rules on exterior finishes.
Insulation adds board and render thickness to the outside of the home, so we measure the gaps to neighbouring homes before specifying it.
How is a park home insulated?
Park home walls are usually a timber or steel frame with an outer cladding. The wall is cleaned and prepared, a base track is fixed, then insulation boards — often 30–70mm EPS — are fixed with fixings suited to the frame. A reinforced base coat and a thin-coat render finish follow, with trims around windows and doors.

Park home insulation in Edinburgh and the Lothians: questions
Can you insulate under the floor too?
Our focus is the walls and finish. Underfloor and roof options are worth asking about separately; we'll tell you if we can't help.
How long does park home insulation take?
Usually 3–6 working days for a single unit once materials are on site, depending on weather and the number of windows.
Will insulation affect the gap to my neighbour?
It reduces it by the board and render thickness. The site licence sets minimum spacing, so we measure and check before specifying the thickness.
Do you cover all of Edinburgh and the Lothians?
Yes. We survey and quote park home insulation across Edinburgh and the Lothians, including Edinburgh, Livingston, Musselburgh, Bathgate.
Do I need planning permission in Scotland?
In Scotland, householder permitted development rights are set by the Scottish GPDO and are narrower for external wall changes; insulating flats or tenements, changing the appearance of a house noticeably, or working in a conservation area usually needs planning permission. We check your address before quoting.
