External Rendering Services

Types of Rendering

Harling Rendering: Harling involves covering stonework with a plastering process using a mix of small pebbles, fine stone chips, and lime mortar. Originally applied to historic buildings to withstand Scotland’s harsh weather, we provide professional Harling work as part of our historic building maintenance services. Our experienced professionals ensure that older masonry and stone structures maintain their appearance and durability for years to come.

Wet Dash Rendering: Wet Dashing is a traditional pebble dash method where a pre-mix of cement and lime, combined with pebbles, is cast onto a wall. This decorative finish, often seen on historic buildings, can be restored through our recoating service.

Exterior/External Insulation Boarding: External insulation boarding offers an alternative method to insulate homes, particularly beneficial for older properties. By reducing heat loss through outer walls, this solution contributes to energy efficiency and comfort. We offer various types of external wall insulation tailored to your needs.

Traditional Lime Render: Lime render, prevalent in historic Scottish buildings, provides both decorative plastering and breathability to stonework. As experts in historic building restoration, we offer comprehensive lime rendering services, ideal for buildings lacking damp proofing.

Acrylic and Polymer Rendering: Polymer Renders incorporate silicone water repellents and cement for a water-repellent finish that allows vapor transmission. Acrylic Rendering provides an attractive finish and can be applied to new and existing rendered walls in various colors and textures.
