Brick Slip Cladding in Mid Glamorgan
Brick slip systems giving an authentic brick face over insulation or an existing rendered wall.
Getting brick slip cladding right in Mid Glamorgan depends far more on the substrate and the exposure than on the product name.
Across Mid Glamorgan, valley terraces, former colliery housing and modern estates dominates, and pebbledash and cement render failure on valley terraces is what we are called out to most often. Local conditions bring high rainfall in sheltered but damp valley locations, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying.
Local factor. Much of the terraced stock was rendered in cement during the 1960s and 70s and is now failing en masse across the valleys.
Is brick slip cladding right for a Mid Glamorgan property?
Choose brick slips where planning, conservation or street character require a brick face, or where you want brick detailing over an insulated wall.
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
Brick Slip Cladding in Mid Glamorgan — questions
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.
Do brick slips look like real brick?
Yes — they are real brick, just cut thin. Once fitted with matching corner slips and properly pointed, they are very difficult to distinguish from solid brickwork at normal viewing distance.
Are brick slips expensive?
They are among the more expensive external finishes, largely due to fitting and pointing labour. Against real brick with the equivalent insulation, they usually compare well.
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.
