Brick Slip Cladding in Southville
Brick slip systems giving an authentic brick face over insulation or an existing rendered wall.
We carry out brick slip cladding across Southville and the surrounding Bristol area throughout the year.
Most of what we see around Southville reflects the wider Bristol pattern — dense Victorian terraces, Georgian stone in the older centre and postwar suburban estates, and cement render trapping damp in solid-wall Victorian terraces.
Southville sits in a part of the UK that gets a mild, wet south-western climate — worth factoring into any render decision. Much of the older stock is solid-wall bath and pennant stone, where lime rather than cement is the correct specification.
When brick slip cladding is the right call. Choose brick slips where planning, conservation or street character require a brick face, or where you want brick detailing over an insulated wall.

FAQs
Brick Slip Cladding in Southville
How long before I can paint new render?
Through-coloured systems need no painting at all. Sand and cement should cure for around 28 days before masonry paint goes anywhere near it.
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 brick slips go over insulation?
Yes, that is one of their main uses. Purpose-made carrier systems fix over EWI boards and take the slips mechanically as well as adhesively.
Will brick slips fall off?
Not when installed on a proper carrier system with mechanical fixing as well as adhesive. Failures come from adhesive-only fixing onto unsuitable substrates.
