What we look for in Hythe
We also cover Southampton and Totton, close to Hythe. Hythe sits around 3 miles from Southampton. Homes across the South East range from inter-war semis and post-war estates, which are mostly cavity-walled, to older solid-walled cottages and Victorian town terraces.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Hampshire: 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.
When Hythe homeowners ask for re-rendering, we price an insulated option alongside so the choice is clear.

Approvals in England
Planning in Hythe 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.
What's involved in stripping old render?
The render is hacked off, usually with breakers, and the debris bagged or skipped. The wall is then inspected: loose bricks, eroded mortar and damp spots are repaired, and the surface is prepared to suit the new system.

Re-rendering in Hythe: questions
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 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.
How do I know if my render has failed?
Signs include cracks, hollow sound when tapped, bulging, pieces falling off, and damp patches inside behind cracked areas.
