Timing depends on the size of your property and the type of render chosen. A typical semi‑detached house can be fully rendered in 5–7 working days. We’ll erect protective scaffolding, apply a base coat, reinforcing mesh and topcoat, then remove scaffolding once the finish is cured. You can expect some noise and dust, but our team takes care to keep disturbance minimal—using dust sheets, respectful working hours and tidy practices to ensure your home remains as comfortable as possible.

Yes—modern rendering systems can help prevent penetrating damp by creating a weatherproof barrier against rain and moisture. Breathable renders like silicone or mineral-based options also allow trapped moisture within the walls to escape, reducing the risk of internal damp or mould. However, it's important to assess the root cause of any damp problem first. If it's due to structural issues or rising damp, those will need to be addressed separately before rendering.

Before we begin, we thoroughly inspect and prepare the surface to ensure a strong, lasting bond. This can include cleaning the walls, removing old or damaged render, repairing cracks, and applying a primer or base coat if needed. We’ll also take care of protecting windows, doors, and surrounding areas with sheeting and tape. You won’t need to do anything—we handle the full prep process to make sure everything runs smoothly.
