What we look for in Ashford (Kent)
We also cover Canterbury and Folkestone, close to Ashford (Kent). Ashford (Kent) is about 18 miles from Maidstone. 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.
Much of Kent 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.
On older houses in Ashford (Kent), stripping old render often reveals mortar repairs that are best done before re-rendering.

Planning and building control in England
Before quoting in Ashford (Kent), we check whether the property is in a conservation area, under an Article 4 direction or listed, because that decides whether changing the outside needs planning permission.
If the work covers more than half of a wall, or a quarter of the building's whole envelope, it counts as renovating a thermal element, with a target of about 0.30 W/m²K where feasible.
Why should I think about insulation when re-rendering?
In England and Wales, replacing render on more than half of a wall's area is treated as renovating a thermal element, so the wall is expected to be upgraded to about 0.30 W/m²K where that's technically, functionally and economically feasible. The scaffold, preparation and finish are being paid for anyway, so the extra cost of insulation is lower than doing it later. We price both options.

Re-rendering in Ashford (Kent): questions
Can I re-render just one wall?
Yes, though matching colour and texture to the other walls may mean recoating them too.
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.
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.
