These answers provide general guidance. They do not replace an inspection, final measurements or a detailed quotation.
energy audit and renovation
Which work should come first?
The order depends on defects, moisture, ventilation and the junctions between different works. It must suit the building; there is no universal ranking.
What savings or grants can I expect?
Savings depend on the building, use, climate and execution. Support depends on current regional rules. Scenarios are neither a savings guarantee nor confirmation of eligibility.
exterior cladding
Can cladding cover an existing facade?
Feasibility depends on the substrate, moisture and fixings. Existing defects need assessment before preparation work or a supporting frame is specified.
What maintenance is needed?
This depends on the material, finish and exposure. Check the manufacturer’s instructions and warranty conditions for the chosen system.
windows
PVC, aluminium or timber for my windows?
The choice depends on dimensions, style, maintenance, performance and budget. Glazing, junctions and the quality of installation remain decisive.
Are final site measurements necessary?
Yes. Final dimensions, substrate condition, opening styles and junctions must be confirmed on site before any order is placed.
facade insulation and renovation
Is external insulation suitable for every facade?
No. Substrate, moisture, property boundaries, details around openings and planning rules may require a different solution.
Must the facade be repaired before insulation?
Causes of cracking, moisture or detachment must be identified and treated so that a compatible, durable system can be installed.
doors
Which type of door should I choose?
The choice depends on use, exposure, security level, desired daylight, threshold requirements and the style of the facade.
Can glazing be included in a door?
Yes, with a composition suited to the required security, privacy, exposure and thermal performance for the project.
