Before we quote in Colchester
Surveys in Colchester also cover the surrounding CO1 district and towns such as Sudbury and Clacton-on-Sea. Colchester is about 26 miles from Southend-on-Sea. The East of England has a mix of post-war estates, inter-war semis and older solid brick and flint cottages, with some system-built council homes on post-war estates.
Much of Essex 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.
Park homes can usually be insulated and rendered without scaffolding, which keeps disruption low for owners near Colchester.

Approvals in England
Park homes are governed by the site licence rather than householder planning rules, so the key check in Colchester is the licence's spacing between homes and any rules on exterior finishes.
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 Colchester: 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.
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.
