Hay-on-Wye, Powys
Brick Slip Cladding in Hay-on-Wye
Brick slip systems giving an authentic brick face over insulation or an existing rendered wall.
We carry out brick slip cladding across Hay-on-Wye and the surrounding Powys area throughout the year.
Most of what we see around Hay-on-Wye reflects the wider Powys pattern — stone farmhouses, timber framing and rural cottages, and lime render on rural stone and timber-frame properties.
The area sees high rainfall with exposed upland conditions, which is the single biggest factor in how long any render lasts here. Powys is overwhelmingly rural, solid-wall and upland, which makes breathable lime the standard specification rather than a heritage exception.
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 Hay-on-Wye
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.
Will you need scaffolding?
For anything above single storey, yes — it is safer and produces a better finish than working off ladders or towers. Scaffold is included and itemised in the quote.
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.
