Oundle, Northamptonshire
Acrylic Render in Oundle
Tough, flexible acrylic thin-coat render with excellent colour retention and impact resistance.
We carry out acrylic render across Oundle and the surrounding Northamptonshire area throughout the year.
The prevailing picture in Northamptonshire is ironstone and limestone villages, Victorian brick and extensive modern development. That means lime work on ironstone and monocouche on new-build estates comes up more here than almost anywhere else.
The area sees a moderate, drier inland climate, which is the single biggest factor in how long any render lasts here. The local ironstone is soft and highly porous, and cement render on it traps moisture and accelerates the stone's decay.
When acrylic render is the right call. Choose acrylic where impact resistance and colour retention matter more than maximum breathability — cavity walls, boards and EWI rather than solid stone.

FAQs
Acrylic Render in Oundle
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.
