External Wall Insulation in Tyrone
EWI systems that insulate solid walls externally and finish them in a warranted render topcoat.
Getting external wall insulation right in Tyrone depends far more on the substrate and the exposure than on the product name.
The prevailing picture in Tyrone is rural stone farmhouses, brick terraces and modern estates. That means driving rain and frost damage on exposed upland properties comes up more here than almost anywhere else. The area sees wet with exposed upland conditions in the Sperrins, which is the single biggest factor in how long any render lasts here.
Local factor. The sperrin uplands add altitude and frost to already high rainfall, which is a demanding combination for any external finish.
Is external wall insulation right for a Tyrone property?
Choose EWI on solid-wall, no-fines or non-traditional construction where you want a genuine thermal upgrade rather than just a new finish.
That decision gets made at the survey, not on the phone. We will tell you plainly if a different system would serve the building better — including when a cheaper one would.

FAQs
External Wall Insulation in Tyrone — questions
Do I need planning permission to render my house?
Usually not on a standard house, but you will if the property is listed, in a conservation area, or if rendering would significantly change its appearance. We flag it at survey.
Will you need scaffolding?
For anything above single storey, yes — it is safer and produces a better finish than working off ladders or towers. Scaffold is included and itemised in the quote.
How long before I can paint new render?
Through-coloured systems need no painting at all. Sand and cement should cure for around 28 days before masonry paint goes anywhere near it.
Do you take a deposit?
For most domestic jobs we take a deposit to cover materials and scaffold, with the balance on completion. Terms are set out clearly in the written quote.
Can you match my existing render?
Usually, yes. We colour and texture match as closely as we can, though weathered render never matches a fresh batch exactly — we will be honest about how visible a patch will be.
Will EWI make my house look different?
The walls become 70-200mm thicker, so reveals get deeper and the eaves usually need extending. Done properly it looks intentional; done cheaply it looks like a box.
