What we look for in Scottish Borders
The Scottish Borders have stone-built towns and villages, rural cottages and some post-war estates.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Scottish Borders: 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.
For park home owners around Scottish Borders, we start by checking the park's licence spacing and any rules on exterior colours.

Approvals 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.
Do I need permission from the site owner?
Check the park's rules and your written agreement. Park sites are licensed, and the licence normally sets fire-safety spacing between homes. Adding insulation reduces that gap slightly, so we confirm the measurements and the site's position before quoting. Planning permission isn't normally involved for park homes, but site licence conditions are.

Park home insulation in Scottish Borders: questions
Is VAT charged on park home insulation?
Installing insulation in a residential home is currently zero-rated until 31 March 2027. Your quote shows the VAT treatment for each line.
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.
Do you cover all of Scottish Borders?
Yes. We survey and quote park home insulation across Scottish Borders, including Hawick, Galashiels, Peebles, Kelso.
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.
