Londonderry
Rendering in Portstewart
Render, repair, pebbledash removal and external wall insulation for Portstewart homes — with a free survey before any price is quoted.
Londonderry is characterised by Victorian terraces, harled cottages and exposed north-coast housing, with driving rain and salt on north-coast properties the recurring theme on the properties we survey.
With wet with severe Atlantic exposure on the north coast, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. The north coast around portstewart takes direct atlantic weather, and dash finishes substantially outperform smooth render there.
How we approach a job in Portstewart
Every Portstewart enquiry starts the same way: we come out, tap-test the existing coat, check the substrate behind it and look for the reason anything has failed. Blown render is nearly always a symptom — of a leaking gutter, a bridged damp course, a cracked sill or an over-strong mix — and re-rendering over an unresolved cause simply buys a couple of years.
You get a written, itemised quotation after the survey, with the specification named so you can compare like for like.

FAQs
Rendering in Portstewart — common questions
How much does rendering cost?
It is priced by the square metre and depends on the system, the condition of the walls and access. Our guide-price tool gives an indicative range in about a minute, and the survey turns that into a fixed written quote.
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes. Every job carries our workmanship guarantee, and where a full manufacturer-specified system is installed you also get the system warranty on top.
What time of year is best for rendering?
Spring through autumn is ideal. Render should not be applied in frost or in very hot direct sun, so winter work needs protection and settled conditions.
Can you render over existing render?
Sometimes, if the existing coat is completely sound and well-bonded. We hammer-test it first. Anything hollow has to come off, because covering failure just hides it.
Are you insured?
Yes — full public liability cover, and we can send the certificate before we start. We are happy to provide RAMS for commercial and contractor work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, with teams across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. If we are not the right firm for your location we will tell you rather than waste your time.
