External Wall Insulation in Ketton
EWI systems that insulate solid walls externally and finish them in a warranted render topcoat.
Ketton property owners come to us for external wall insulation for one of two reasons: something has failed, or the house looks tired.
Across Rutland, limestone and ironstone cottages and village housing dominates, and lime render on soft local stone in a heavily conservation-controlled county is what we are called out to most often.
With a dry inland climate, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. England's smallest county is almost entirely built in soft local limestone and ironstone, so lime is the default rather than the exception.
When external wall insulation is the right call. Choose EWI on solid-wall, no-fines or non-traditional construction where you want a genuine thermal upgrade rather than just a new finish.

FAQs
External Wall Insulation in Ketton
Can you render over existing render?
Sometimes, if the existing coat is completely sound and well-bonded. We hammer-test it first. Anything hollow has to come off, because covering failure just hides it.
Are you insured?
Yes — full public liability cover, and we can send the certificate before we start. We are happy to provide RAMS for commercial and contractor work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, with teams across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. If we are not the right firm for your location we will tell you rather than waste your time.
How much does external wall insulation save?
On a typical uninsulated solid-wall semi it commonly cuts wall heat loss substantially and makes the biggest single difference to comfort. Actual savings depend on the existing construction, heating system and how you use the house.
Do I need planning permission for EWI?
Often not on a standard house, but you will if it is listed, in a conservation area, or if it alters the appearance significantly. We advise before starting.
