Roughcast & Rendering
That Protects for Twenty Years.

Roughcast and rendering costs typically range from £40 to £80 per square metre, depending on the level of preparation required. A full semi-detached house usually falls between £4,000 and £9,000 including scaffolding, substrate repair, render, and a ProPerla protective top coat. Every quote is free, easy to follow, and yours to keep with no obligation.

Yes. We remove failing pebble dash (also called wet dash or dry dash) back to the block or brick substrate. Once stripped, we repair any damage, apply new render or harling, and finish with a ProPerla protective coating. The result is a clean, modern finish, with all workmanship guaranteed.

Roughcast and harling describe the same family of textured exterior finishes common across Scotland. Harling is the traditional Scottish term for throwing a wet mix of lime, sand and aggregate onto a wall. Roughcast is the broader UK term. Both produce a durable, textured surface that protects against driving rain.

Most houses take 1 to 2 Weeks from scaffold up to final coat, weather permitting. Smaller properties or single-elevation jobs can be finished in under a week. Our surveyor gives you a firm timeline at the quoting stage.

If the damp is caused by water getting through cracked or blown render (penetrating damp), then yes, new render plus a hydrophobic ProPerla top coat will cure it. If the issue is rising damp or condensation, rendering helps but is not a standalone fix. Our surveyor diagnoses the cause before recommending a solution, and is honest with you if rendering alone is not the answer.
