Bowthorpe was built largely from the 1980s onward as a planned development on Norwich's western edge, and the housing there is well suited to exterior cladding upgrades.
The estate's brick and block construction from that era means many homes have single-skin or partially-filled cavities that leave them colder than expected for their age. uPVC and composite board cladding fitted over rigid insulation is one of the most effective retrofits available for properties of this type, and Bowthorpe's relatively uniform housing layout makes the installation process straightforward on most plots. We have fitted cladding on several houses across the Bowthorpe neighbourhood and understand the typical wall build-up on these properties.
We reach Bowthorpe from Poringland via the southern bypass, usually in around twenty minutes. Before we quote, we check whether any planning considerations apply — some parts of the development have design covenants worth confirming.
