Acrylic Render in Armagh
Tough, flexible acrylic thin-coat render with excellent colour retention and impact resistance.
Our acrylic render work in Armagh starts with a free survey, because guessing at a render specification is how jobs go wrong.
Armagh is characterised by brick and stone terraces, rural cottages and modern estates, with dash render repair and damp in solid-wall rural properties the recurring theme on the properties we survey. Local conditions bring wet with moderate inland exposure, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying.
Local factor. Rural solid-wall stock across the county needs breathable systems, while the towns are conventional dash-rendered brick and block.
Is acrylic render right for a Armagh property?
Choose acrylic where impact resistance and colour retention matter more than maximum breathability — cavity walls, boards and EWI rather than solid stone.
That decision gets made at the survey, not on the phone. We will tell you plainly if a different system would serve the building better — including when a cheaper one would.

FAQs
Acrylic Render in Armagh — questions
Do you take a deposit?
For most domestic jobs we take a deposit to cover materials and scaffold, with the balance on completion. Terms are set out clearly in the written quote.
Can you match my existing render?
Usually, yes. We colour and texture match as closely as we can, though weathered render never matches a fresh batch exactly — we will be honest about how visible a patch will be.
Can acrylic render be used on old solid walls?
We generally advise against it. Solid walls need to breathe, and acrylic's lower vapour permeability can trap moisture. Silicone or lime is the better route there.
How thick is acrylic render?
The decorative topcoat is 1.5mm or 2mm depending on grain size, applied over a reinforced basecoat of around 6mm.
How long does a rendering job take?
A typical three-bedroom semi is usually one to two weeks on site including scaffold, preparation, application and finishing. Weather, wall condition and the system chosen all move that.
Do I need planning permission to render my house?
Usually not on a standard house, but you will if the property is listed, in a conservation area, or if rendering would significantly change its appearance. We flag it at survey.
