Our services
EWI, rendering and selected building work
Most of our work is exterior insulation and rendering. We also take on plastering and selected general building jobs where they fit the project.
Rendering & Plastering
Silicone, acrylic, silicate, mineral, monocouche and traditional render, together with repairs, dry lining, plasterboard and internal skimming.
View rendering & plastering →General Building
Fencing, gates, brickwork, porches, decking, coping stones, suspended ceilings and other practical improvements around the property.

Let the finished work speak first
Whole elevations, close detailing and completed finishes give a much better idea of the standard than a long list of claims.
Why Bro-Therm
The same people quote the work and carry it out
Bro-Therm is run by two brothers. We visit the property, discuss the job, prepare the quotation and complete the work ourselves. There is no sales team and no subcontractor chain.
- One point of contact throughout the job
- A written scope before materials are ordered
- Insulation selected to suit the wall and required build-up
- Window reveals, plinths, roof lines and pipework discussed before work starts
- Any additional work agreed before it is carried out
How it works
From the first photos to a written quotation
A few clear photos are usually enough for the first conversation. The final specification and price are confirmed after the property has been assessed.
1
Send the details
Send the postcode, photographs and a short description of the work you have in mind.
2
Site visit
We inspect the walls, access, openings, external pipework and any existing defects that may affect the job.
3
Quote and booking
You receive a written scope and price. Once everything is agreed, we arrange the materials and start date.
Inside an EWI system
The render is only the final layer
Before the finish is applied, the wall has to be prepared, the insulation fitted to the agreed specification and the reinforced basecoat completed. Each layer has its own job, and shortcuts usually show later.
01
Wall preparation, starter tracks and protection
02
Insulation boards, adhesive, mechanical fixings, beads and mesh
03
Basecoat, primer and the specified render finish

First contact
Photos first, site visit where required
The first estimate can often be discussed from photographs. The final quotation follows once the relevant walls, access and details have been assessed.
