Haringey contains a number of residential buildings requiring EWS1 certificates, particularly around Tottenham Hale where new towers have been built as part of the area’s regeneration, and at Broadwater Farm and other social housing estates with external wall systems that mortgage lenders require assessed.
Our surveyors are familiar with the facade types across Haringey, from modern rain-screen cladding on Tottenham Hale developments to the panel and render systems on Broadwater Farm and other estate blocks. We understand the borough’s mix of new-build and legacy housing stock and provide thorough assessments for both.
Whether you are selling a flat in a Tottenham Hale tower, remortgaging in an estate block, or managing a building in Wood Green that requires external wall certification, we provide comprehensive EWS1 assessments across Haringey.
Mortgage lenders require EWS1 certificates for flats in Haringey buildings with external wall systems. Tottenham Hale regeneration towers and estate blocks at Broadwater Farm and across Tottenham are frequently affected by lending requirements.
Haringey has residential buildings over 11 metres including Tottenham Hale towers, Broadwater Farm blocks, social housing towers across Tottenham and Wood Green, and newer developments along the High Road corridor.
Haringey buildings feature rain-screen cladding on new Tottenham Hale developments, concrete panels on Broadwater Farm, render systems on refurbished estate blocks, and composite facades on modern mixed-use buildings. Each requires specialist assessment.
RICS valuers must address external wall concerns before mortgage lending proceeds on Haringey flats. Without an EWS1 certificate, valuations may be qualified, delaying sales and remortgages across the borough.

View ServiceCosts in Haringey depend on building height and the number of facade types. A modern Tottenham Hale tower may differ from a Broadwater Farm block. We provide fixed-fee quotes after an initial review of your building’s external walls.
Typically two to six weeks from instruction to certificate issue. We work with Haringey Council, housing associations and private managing agents to arrange access and complete inspections efficiently.
A B2 rating means remediation is likely required. Government CSS and BSF funding may be available for qualifying Haringey buildings. The borough has several buildings already in the remediation process, and we can advise on funding applications.
Only residential buildings over 11 metres or those with specific external wall concerns require EWS1 certification. Victorian terraces in Crouch End and Muswell Hill with traditional brick facades are exempt, but tower blocks and modern developments typically need assessment.
