Suffolk

Rendering in Felixstowe

Render, repair, pebbledash removal and external wall insulation for Felixstowe homes — with a free survey before any price is quoted.

The prevailing picture in Suffolk is timber-framed and pargeted cottages, flint and brick and coastal housing. That means lime render and pargeting on historic timber-frame stock comes up more here than almost anywhere else.

With dry inland with cold easterly coastal exposure, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. Suffolk's traditional pargeting is a lime craft, and the county holds one of england's densest concentrations of listed timber-framed cottages.

How we approach a job in Felixstowe

Every Felixstowe 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.

If a cheaper specification would do the job, we will say so. If it would not, we will tell you why.
