Damp-Proof Render in Bembridge
Specialist waterproof and salt-resistant render systems for damp-affected and below-ground walls.
Bembridge property owners come to us for damp-proof render for one of two reasons: something has failed, or the house looks tired.
The prevailing picture in Isle of Wight is Victorian seaside villas, stone cottages and coastal bungalows. That means salt exposure and driving rain on an island with no sheltered aspect comes up more here than almost anywhere else.
The area sees exposed maritime conditions on all sides, which is the single biggest factor in how long any render lasts here. Being an island, every elevation is a weather elevation — there is no consistently sheltered side, which changes how a whole-house specification is planned.
When damp-proof render is the right call. Choose a damp-proof system after flooding, alongside DPC works, on below-ground walls, and wherever salt contamination is destroying normal plaster.

FAQs
Damp-Proof Render in Bembridge
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.
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.
