Brick slip EWI in Peckham: questions

Is building control approval needed for brick slip external wall insulation in Peckham?

Insulating more than half of a wall, or more than a quarter of the whole building envelope, counts as renovating a thermal element under the Building Regulations, so the wall should reach 0.30 W/m²K where that is technically, functionally and economically feasible, and building control must be involved. We arrange it as part of the job.

Do you cover Brixton as well as Peckham?

Yes. From Peckham we also cover Brixton, Greenwich and Catford, and the rest of Greater London.

How long will the work take in Peckham?

Two to six weeks on site for most houses, depending on size: bungalows are quicker, detached houses longer, weather allowing. Render isn't applied in rain or frost.
