Before we quote in Coulsdon
Surveys in Coulsdon also cover the surrounding CR5 district and towns such as Purley and Banstead. London's housing includes a large stock of Victorian and Edwardian solid-wall terraces, inter-war semis and post-war blocks, and conservation areas cover many streets — so planning is often the first question for external work.
Much of Greater London 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 Coulsdon re-render jobs, we check whether building control needs notifying for your wall area.

England: planning and regulations
Planning in Coulsdon follows England's national rules: similar-looking finishes on houses are usually permitted, while flats, commercial premises, conservation areas and streets under an Article 4 direction need an application.
Building control applies once more than half of a wall is insulated or re-rendered, or more than a quarter of the whole building envelope, and your written quote says how that's handled.
Which new render should I choose?
On older solid walls, breathable lime or a mineral system is often safest. On sound modern masonry, silicone over a mesh base coat gives a durable, low-maintenance finish. If insulation is added, the finish is the one specified for the EWI system.

Re-rendering in Coulsdon: questions
Can I re-render just one wall?
Yes, though matching colour and texture to the other walls may mean recoating them too.
Do I need building control for re-rendering?
In England and Wales, re-rendering more than half of a wall's area — or more than a quarter of the whole building's envelope — is controlled work under Part L, so usually yes. We explain how it's handled in the quote.
Is it worth adding insulation?
On solid or concrete walls it's usually the most cost-effective time to do it, because access and preparation are already paid for.
Do you cover Coulsdon?
Yes — we survey and quote re-rendering in Coulsdon (CR5) and nearby Purley, Banstead and Wallington, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
