Render Crack Repair in Dunoon
Diagnosing and repairing hairline, map and structural cracking in existing render.
Getting render crack repair right in Dunoon depends far more on the substrate and the exposure than on the product name.
Argyll and Bute is characterised by stone cottages, Victorian villas and remote coastal properties, with extreme driving rain on remote west-coast properties the recurring theme on the properties we survey.
The area sees very high rainfall with severe Atlantic exposure, which is the single biggest factor in how long any render lasts here. The west coast combines the highest rainfall in britain with severe wind, and only breathable harling reliably survives it long term.
When render crack repair is the right call. Choose crack repair when the render is otherwise sound and well-bonded but cracking is letting water in or spoiling the appearance.

FAQs
Render Crack Repair in Dunoon
Can you render over existing render?
Sometimes, if the existing coat is completely sound and well-bonded. We hammer-test it first. Anything hollow has to come off, because covering failure just hides it.
Are you insured?
Yes — full public liability cover, and we can send the certificate before we start. We are happy to provide RAMS for commercial and contractor work.
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.
Are hairline cracks in render serious?
Usually not on their own — fine shrinkage cracking is common and cosmetic. It matters because it lets water in behind the render, which then causes the serious failure.
Can you just fill the cracks?
Filling alone rarely lasts, because the movement that caused the crack is still there. Mesh reinforcement or a proper movement joint gives a repair that holds.
